CX Unit Contract Negotiations

Bargaining with the UC began in October 2021 on our new Union contract, and we need all non-members to join and stand with the vast majority of UC administrative and clerical coworkers to send the message that we are prepared to do whatever it takes to get the best contract for all of us.
Remember, our Union is only as strong as its members. Members have a voice in negotiations such as the ability to: submit a bargaining survey, run for a seat on the Bargaining Team, and vote on anything from authorizing a strike to ratifying a new contract.
Completing your membership process online is easy! Fill out the brief form linked here to get started.
We are in this together — let’s show the UC that we will do what it takes to fight for fair raises, benefits, and working conditions!
