After months of tough bargaining, member rallies, and solidarity from Teamsters across the state, 95% of UCI Skilled Trades Teamsters members turned out to ratify our new Union contract!
98% of voting Teamsters said YES to our collective bargaining agreement! This overwhelming majority is a testament to the strength of our new agreement, which provides an 18.5% average raise for every K9 Teamster over the next three years, on top of many other major benefits!
“Congratulations to our UCI Skilled Trades Teamsters for winning and ratifying this great contract! Thanks to our strong Bargaining Team and to all of our members for standing together as Teamsters, showing the University that the Teamsters are ready to do whatever it takes to win the fair raises, benefits, and protections we deserve! Let’s keep standing together as Teamsters to enforce this contract and continue to build our strength for the fights ahead!”
Jason Rabinowitz
Secretary-Treasurer, Teamsters Local 2010
This agreement would not have been possible without the help of every Teamster who joined a rally, spoke with their coworkers, or turned out to show UCI our strength! When Teamsters fight, Teamsters win!
If you have questions about our raises or any of the benefits included in our new contract, talk to a steward or Bargaining Team member!
