Security Officers Who Protect Kaiser Hospitals Rally With Community Supporters for Access to Affordable Healthcare
Date:5/21/2009

ss California that protect Kaiser hospitals have been in negotiations with Securitas for their first contract since March. Despite protecting medical staff, and patients in hospitals run by the largest nonprofit healthcare organization in the country, officers earn as little as $10.40 an hour and many cannot afford routine medical treatment and care at the very medical centers they protect.

Although private security officers are typically first responders to emergency situations, low wages and lack of access to quality, affordable healthcare are contributing to a turnover rate estimated by industry experts to be as high as 300%. Coupled with inadequate training standards cited by security officers, poor conditions in the private security industry mean a greater threat to public safety and building security.
