More than 320 Financial Analysts 1-2 working at the University of California (UC) won Union representation with Teamsters Local 2010 in January. These newest members of the Teamsters family will immediately receive all of the rights and protection of our Union contract and will begin the bargaining process for higher pay, reduced cost for benefits, overtime pay, job security, and respect in the workplace.
Workers in the Financial Analyst 1-2 titles were improperly classified by the UC as unrepresented employees and for years have been denied the wages, benefits and protections of a Union. Our Union petitioned the Public Employment Relations Board (PERB) to end this improper placement.
On Jan. 29, 2025, PERB and the UC agreed your work shares a community of interest with the Teamsters Local 2010 CX Bargaining Unit and issued a unit modification order accreting FA 1-2 workers into the CX Unit. You join more than 23,000 administrative, paraprofessional, and skilled trades workers who provide critical public services at the University of California, California State University and Los Angeles Unified School District, as well as 1.3 million Teamsters members in the U.S. and Canada.
Next, FA 1-2 workers will begin the bargaining process for salary ranges, step placement, and ancillary pay.
“Welcome to our new Teamsters and congratulations on winning Union representation and all of the raises, rights, and benefits that come with it! The power of our Union comes from the power of our members, so I urge you to join the Union and get involved! When we stand together as Teamsters, we win together!”
