Our Philosophy

At Sharp HealthCare, our employees are the heartbeat of The Sharp Experience, and our vision to be the best place to work is dependent on our ability to attract and retain the best talent. Toward that end, we strive to provide an open and engaged work environment that fosters healthy and respectful discussion on topics important to both staff and management.

Sharp HealthCare Labor Relations Philosophy

We believe:

Our employees – whether or not represented by a union – are our most valuable asset when it comes to serving our patients and our communities.

We believe that we have an obligation to inform our non-unionized employees of their choices and options and our philosophy regarding union representation.

We provide employees with competitive wage and benefit packages, safe working conditions, open two-way communications, policies that promote a fair and respectful work environment, and the opportunity for employees to develop and enhance their skills.

We strive to continually re-evaluate wage rates to assure that employees are fairly compensated and to make rate adjustments when appropriate to treat employees equitably.

Employee voice matters at Sharp HealthCare and plays a critical role in shaping the future of our organization. Our leaders consistently hear, value, and respond to employee feedback.

It is in the best interest of Sharp HealthCare and our non-unionized employees to maintain direct one-to-one relationships with their leaders that are free from third-party intervention.

Our mission to provide extraordinary patient care is best accomplished when our employees’ voices are heard, when we work directly with one another, and when employees speak for themselves and our patients without intervention from outside organizations. Our valued employees deliver on our mission every day when caring for our patients and the communities we serve.
