The University and staff union bargaining committees met on Jan. 13 to resume negotiations on the initial collective bargaining agreement.

The union presented four counterproposals on Flexible Work Arrangements, Health and Safety, Seniority, and Layoffs. The University introduced five counterproposals on Seniority‑Layoffs (formerly called Seniority), Layoffs, Hours of Work, Job Changes, and Positions. The parties reached a tentative agreement on Positions. A reminder that all the University’s proposals are posted online here.

The parties will reconvene on Jan. 29, 2026.
