Striking workers in Providence are facing a critical deadline as they must return to their jobs by February 28 to retain their benefits. The ongoing strike, which has significantly impacted healthcare services in the area, has left many workers grappling with the loss of essential benefits. In response to the financial strain caused by the strike, the union representing these workers has established a hardship fund to provide financial assistance during this challenging period.

The fund aims to support those who find themselves in dire circumstances due to the work stoppage. Union leaders are urging their members to consider the implications of the deadline and the importance of maintaining their benefits, especially in the healthcare sector where job security and benefits are paramount. As the strike continues, the tension between the workers and management remains high, with both sides seeking a resolution that addresses the needs and concerns of the healthcare workforce.
