StrikeRadarOPERATIONS-CRITICAL STRIKE INTELLIGENCEUnited Steelworkers cites 98% strike authorization at the U.S. Midwest’s largest refinery in Indiana as related actions continue in healthcare and education
United Steelworkers asked workers at BP’s 440,000-barrel-per-day Whiting, Indiana refinery to prepare for a strike or lockout after weeks of negotiations with the company did not yield results. The union said Thursday that 98% of members at the plant, roughly 800 workers at the largest refinery in the U.S. Midwest, voted to authorize a strike. Local president Eric Schultz said members are ready to strike to move toward a fair agreement while bargaining continues.
In healthcare, Kaiser Permanente workers in Hawaii remain on strike nearing its third week, with U.S. Rep. Jill Tokuda joining picket lines as the Union of Health Care Professionals urges a resumption of local bargaining paused since December; Kaiser says it has offered wage increases of up to 21.5%, which the union says would reduce retirement and paid time off. Kaiser workers have also built demands around artificial intelligence in negotiations, using picket lines and hunger strikes to seek safeguards. In education and public services, San Francisco Unified schools plan to close if a teacher strike proceeds next week, Teamsters Local 2010 plan to strike at Cal Poly Humboldt in two weeks over a California State University system salary dispute, and Towamensing Township public works employees are on strike after a co-worker’s suspension and termination, with unfair labor practice charges filed. Nurses and health care workers at Shasta Regional Medical Center in Redding, California, announced a one-day strike for February 19 over staffing and patient safety.
Simultaneous labor actions across energy, healthcare, and education indicate cross-sector bargaining pressure in multiple U.S. regions this month.
