MNA helps nurses and healthcare professionals get results

MNA is the largest union for RNs and healthcare professionals in Michigan.
Forming a union in your workplace with MNA is the first step to gaining a seat at every table where decisions are made -- decisions that affect you, your patients, and your practice.
Using their collective power, Michigan Nurses Association members across the state have negotiated written contracts that include:
- industry-leading wages
- guaranteed annual raises
- enforceable staffing ratios
- affordable health care
- a real say in issues like scheduling, floating, and time off
MNA is unique among Michigan unions because of our extensive experience with health care issues and collective bargaining. Skilled professional staff support Michigan nurses and healthcare professionals in building strong unions and securing outstanding contracts in their workplaces -- putting the power in your hands.
