Episode 74: The FDNY*EMS Struggle with Michael Greco
Michael Greco is the Vice President of Local 2507, who represents the EMTs, Paramedics and Fire Inspectors of the Fire Department of the City of New York. You may remember we had him on last in Episode 29, and unfortunately, conditions have not improved much since our last talk.
The FDNY*EMS members will be boycotting the ticker-tape parade held for the City’s “Hometown Heroes”, because quite simply, while New York City will give them a parade; they will not pay them a fair living for the critical job they do in one of the most expensive places to live in the world.
It is said that a rising tide lifts all boats, and we hope by sharing the struggle of our brothers and sisters in New York; you will learn and value YOUR worth as clinicians doing an important job.
