Theoretically, when a car is parked on someone's property (a hospital in this case)

79. By putting out that document, one might make an

argument that the hospital is changing the terms of any contract previously negotiated with the union on behalf on the union members if, the hospital is in fact claiming some degree of ownership in employee vehicles. In addition, one might argue what type of compensation is the hospital willing to offer employees in exchange for some degree of ownership stake in these vehicles.

I don't know if the union does in fact negotiate contracts on behalf of the employees, how far into your current contract you are (if there is a contract) or how good your union negotiators are but this could have the potential to impact any future contract negotiations. Depending upon how the issue is handled it could be a question of whether or not the hospital is in breach of any contract with the union members. I would definitely recommend that you talk to the union officials prior to talking to anybody at the hospital to determine their assessment of the document and its potential impact to their union members. You might be a union rep for your hospital, but it might be in your own personal best interest if you can get a union official to handle the matter.
