Bargaining updates 38-40

Breakthroughs on several issues were made during sessions on November 19th, 25th, and 26th. Tentative agreements relating to ten particular issues of concern to PSC members were reached and signed. These agreements are contingent on the signed agreement of both parties to a full Memorandum of Agreement on all issues. Negotiations on other matters will continue while the PSC presses CUNY management for an economic offer that improves on their most recent offer of November 15.

A strong bargaining tactic

The power of member observers

In the latest round of contract negotiations, the PSC bargaining team chose to invite all members to observe all bargaining sessions. With the goal of winning the strongest possible contract, we believed that when members showed up, it would – in addition to other tactics we employ – show CUNY that we are a unified and determined body.
