Labor Relations Philosophy

Cincinnati Children’s is dedicated to ensuring employees have a voice.

We are committed to listening to our employees’ feedback and finding solutions together. Further, we strongly believe everyone benefits when employees are engaged in our mission and know they can speak up and be heard.

We strive to be the healthcare employer of choice – supporting our employees with competitive wages, benefits, and opportunities for career advancement. We value a diverse and inclusive workforce and believe in helping people thrive and do their best to help care for all kids.

We believe in maintaining a direct and open line of communication with our employees and that inserting a union in the middle of our relationship will impact both our culture and our ability to continue to excel. This approach has worked well for over 140 years, and we would like to keep it that way.

Finally, we are proud of the passion and expertise our employees bring to Cincinnati Children’s and believe that their best experience will be realized without a third party in between us.
