Negotiations Update – First Day of Bargaining

We just finished our first bargaining session with Rutgers. We put forward our set of non-economic proposals. Our proposals aimed at winning safe staffing, job security protections to prevent Barnabas takeover, and strong language on Emergency Weather.

Our next scheduled bargaining date is April 15th and we will present our economic proposals. This is the time for our union to be united — we need you to get involved, join the Contract Action Team, and talk to your coworkers. Participation matters – it is how we win!

Please continue to wear stickers today! If you need stickers, please contact our staff Rep Bennett Nagurka at [email protected] or Latoya Morris, our organizer, at [email protected].

We will be sending out more information with upcoming events. Please stay tuned and be ready to show up and show out for a strong contract!

In solidarity,
