From the Chapter President

UUP Members to have Input on Next Contract October 6, 2010
Thank You! Under challenging circumstances your service helps provide for the public good and for the public institution that is the State University of New York. You are doing your part!

Your current collective bargaining agreement just provided for a negotiated salary increase of 4%.

UUP has begun the process of hearing from members about what should be on the table for the next round of contract negotiations. This includes a visit to System Administration on October 6, 2010.

If your pay stub says "Fee Payer" you are ineligible to vote on a proposed contract, nor do you have the option to provide your input on what should be included in such a proposed contract. Please contact the Chapter Office or Department Rep. to become a "UUP Member" and provide your say about our next contract.

We need everyone as a member to support our position at the bargaining table.

Get in touch with us
With new SUNY leadership and a new governor, these are somewhat unsettled times. Please be sure to contact one of your UUP volunteers if you have questions related to these topics or to your terms and conditions of employment.

Please get in touch with me or other chapter officers if you have any questions or concerns. And, please consider what you can do to improve our UUP chapter. Contact a chapter leader about campus and SUNY-wide opportunities.
