From the Table 12/06: Article 8 - Management Responds to Our Economic Demands
<p>This week's agenda was planned to focus on <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1gSmT5ImIPVJG6Ec3g4jQi9dDtRv8mLOT/view">Article 10</a> and <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1zx_yUItqDrFsXoW4E1GBEe1Xz2MOLTTO/view">Article 11</a> release language (for settlement of grievances), an Article 22 counter (regarding earned-vacation accrual carryover), and a union response to <a href="https://rutgersaaup.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/November-29-2022-University-Proposal-Appendix-H.pdf">management’s proposed Appendix H</a> (pertaining to faculty and grad worker suspensions).

From the Table 11/8/2022: Article 12 Grad Issues
<p>On 11/8/2022 we presented Article 12 of our demands regarding the graduate worker contract, including 1) Increasing graduate worker PhD funded appointment minimums to 5 years; 2) Including graduate fellows in the contract, with equal pay protections and benefits; and 3) COVID extensions for workers whose completion timelines were affected by the pandemic. COVID extensions were broken out into a side letter that was presented. Several speakers worked with our bargaining committee to present personal statements regarding the importance and urgency of our demands. Some of them joined us here.</p> <p><br></p> <p>For more information and to read the Article and Side Letter: https://rutgersaaup.org/bargaining-update-15-november-8-2022/</p>
