2025 Negotiation Observer Process
There are 36 observer spots available for each session.
The highly anticipated negotiations for UCPEA’s new contract are officially underway, marking a pivotal year for both the union and the university. With critical issues on the table, this round of bargaining will shape the future of our working conditions, benefits, and compensation. It’s a crucial moment to stay engaged and informed as we work to secure a fair and equitable contract for all members.
On January 24, the UCPEA Negotiating Committee met with the University to establish the ground rules that will govern the negotiating process going forward, including how members can observe sessions. We are pleased to share that there are 36 observer spots available for each session.
