Activists to Discuss New Catholic Hospital Organizing Rules
Seven months after the U.S. Catholic Church released guidelines aimed at improving sometimes bitter relations between workers and management in Catholic hospitals, the church’s social activists will learn how well the guidelines are working and what more can be done to ensure justice for workers.
Paul Booth, executive assistant to AFSCME President Gerald McEntee, and John Carr, executive director of the U.S. Catholic Conference of Bishops Department of Justice, Peace and Human Development, will lead a panel on the guidelines Feb. 6 at the Catholic Labor Network Gathering in Washington, D.C.
