On the eve of a Monday strike, the union that represents healthcare workers at the Motion Picture and Television Fund‘s hospital and facilities is taking a scorch Earth approach. The latest salvo by the Service Employees International Union-United Healthcare Workers West is providing Deadline with the MPTF's 2011 IRS filing that reveals the premium compensation given top executives and employees at the non-profit. Obviously, this demonstrates the huge gap between what nurses and other caregivers earn and what the bigwigs make. (The average wage for a MPTF worker is around $45,300.)
