Collective Agreement Renewal Starts

The local announces the official start of negotiations for the renewal of the collective agreement for part-time professors at Saint Paul University.

An initial meeting allowed for the exchange of proposed norms between the union and the employer. This process marks the formal launch of discussions aimed at improving working conditions, updating the collective agreement, and ensuring that it remains relevant to the realities of the university environment.

The union is undertaking these negotiations with the objective of defending the interests of its members and contributing to fair, equitable working conditions that are consistent with industry standards.

Further updates will be issued as the process progresses.
