About 1,000 registered nurses at Endeavor Health Edward Hospital in Naperville have asked federal labor officials to hold a union election. The petition filed with the National Labor Relations Board on Oct. 8 seeks representation by National Nurses United through its affiliate, the National Nurses Organizing Committee.
The filing comes as nurses at other Endeavor hospitals organize. On Oct. 14, Endeavor and Rush University System for Health also announced that they plan to merge. Together, the developments could reshape working conditions at one of the Chicago area's largest hospital networks.
