NNU is also fighting for workplace violence
prevention programs on all fronts, including
collective bargaining and regulatory and
legislative arenas. NNU has won additional
benefits for RNs through collective bargaining,
such as insurance coverage that can provide
up to $200,000 for RNs if they suffer a felonious
assault or violent crime.
