The SEIU this week made an agreement with Kaiser Permanente medical facilities which requires Kaiser to replace irresponsible and anti-union security contractor, Inter-con, with Securitas. UNI has a global agreement with Securitas which make specific provision for union organising.



As part of the agreement with SEIU, Securitas has committed to hire the security officers who currently protect Kaiser's facilities. Securitas has previously ensured that other officers in California had a fair process to form a union with SEIU. SEIU's agreement covers 1,800 security workers at Kaiser and is expected to give these workers the chance to earn a decent wage and to obtain affordable health care.
