2019-2022 Collective Agreement Ratified!

July 18, 2019 webmaster

The results are in!

Yes = 682 Votes (93.2%)
No = 50 Votes (6.8%)

Total Votes = 732 of 866 Electors (84.5%)

The Negotiating Team and the Executive Committee are heartened by this outcome.

This is a progressive agreement that lays the foundation for better compensation, better benefits, increased research support, and enhanced collegiality.

Next Steps

The University’s Board of Governors will hold a ratification vote on the CA on July 18, 2019.
Many of the changes that we bargained represent significant shifts to current practice. The Association will be engaging with the Administration in some joint training on certain aspects of the new agreement. In addition, we will be holding our own events and workshops, and producing info materials, to help educate the Membership on key changes and timelines under the new CA.

Thank you again for taking the time to inform and inspire the Negotiating Team throughout the bargaining process – and for voting YES to a CA that strengthens the Association’s work in supporting our Members!
