More than 500 caregivers at Mercy Hospital will receive an 18% raise under a new three-year contract, according to their union, 1199SEIU.
Workers at the Rockville Centre hospital approved the contract last week, which went into effect immediately and will provide raises beyond the 18% bump for job titles with the lowest compensation rates, the union said. The agreement covers staff on dietary, transport, housekeeping and pharmacy teams.
