The registered nurses at Steward Nashoba Valley Medical Center in Ayer, who are represented by the Massachusetts Nurses Association, have ratified a new three-year contract.
The vote came after more than 10 months of negotiation.
Among the points of the contract are the nurses will receive retroactive wage increases over the next two years, an employer-paid pension to go into effect in 2021, and maintenance of the health insurance cost splits and no increases to co-pays or any out of pocket costs or cuts to the benefits for the life of the contract.
Language compelling compliance with the state’s intensive care unit staffing law has been added.
