Becker's Tracks Hospital Pay Raises and Union Contracts Since December

Becker's Hospital Review maintains a running list of hospitals and health systems that have announced worker pay increases since December 2025, updated regularly with the latest entry on October 12. Recent additions include SEIU District 1199's ratified three-year contract ending an Ohio hospital strike with wage increases near 11%, a first union contract for Ascension St. Agnes Hospital nurses in Baltimore, and Hartford HealthCare raising its minimum wage to $20 an hour affecting about 4,000 employees. Other entries cover new contracts at Mount Nittany Medical Center, Orange County Global Medical Center, Providence St. Vincent Medical Center, UMass Memorial, One Brooklyn Health, the University of California system, Temple University Health System, Thomas Jefferson University Hospitals, CGH Medical Center and Maple Grove Hospital. The page compiles ongoing labor agreements rather than a single event.
