Worcester Public Health nurses meet with city councilors

The MNA Worcester Public Health Nurses met on June 4 with Worcester city councilors, the legislative body responsible for public health services in the City of Worcester. The meeting encompassed a brief but comprehensive presentation, made by members of the bargaining unit, which provided a compelling and realistic picture of the work they do and the benefit they bring to the citizens of Worcester.

The nurses did a spectacular job explaining to city councilors what they do and why it is so important. Allison Zimmon, their labor associate director, also provided the elected officials with a brief negotiations update.
