1199SEIU United Healthcare Workers East is a labor union serving the hospitals and health care sector, headquartered in New York City. It represents frontline workers across hospitals, nursing homes, home care, clinics, pharmacies and related settings, including nurses, aides, technicians, lab staff and various support roles. Founded in 1932, the organization pursues quality healthcare, good jobs and social justice, using collective action to secure wage standards, benefits, safe staffing, affordable education, paid time off, childcare and retirement security, along with a meaningful voice at work. With a membership that spans multiple states—Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey, Washington, D.C., and Florida—it positions itself as one of the largest health care unions in the United States. As an affiliate of the Service Employees International Union, it sits within a broad national labor network. A notable recent development occurred in February 2024, when the union partnered with Crouse Hospital Auxiliary to staff a center using representatives from its Training and Upgrading Fund.
