More than 9,600 registered nurses at nine Corewell Health Southeast Michigan hospitals voted to unionize and be represented by the Teamsters union. According to the National Labor Relations Board, nurses voted 4,958 to 2,957 in favor of union representation, or just shy of 63%. 'Despite Corewell waging one of the most expensive and aggressive union-busting campaigns we've ever seen, these nurses knew their value and were determined to become Teamsters,' said Teamsters General President Sean M. O'Brien. Corewell spokesman Mark Geary, Sr., acknowledged the vote, saying 'We value all our nurses and are committed to moving forward together, united by our mission to provide high-quality care to our patients and the communities we serve.'
