More than 75,000 Kaiser Permanente workers across the nation are scheduled to go on strike Wednesday, marking the largest health care worker strike in U.S. history. About 4,000 health care workers in Oregon and southwest Washington will be on strike this week unless the two sides reach an agreement, according to union representative Alan Dubinsky. Kaiser's Oregon locations include Salem, Keizer, Eugene, Aumsville, McMinnville, Oregon City and the Portland metro area. The strike, which will last for three days, is in protest of what employees allege are unfair labor practices and unsafe staffing levels in hospitals and clinics.
