American Federation of Teachers - 09609 United Academics of Oregon St

The purpose of United Academics of Oregon State University is to negotiate for, represent, and support the interest of faculty in the bargaining unit. We collectively bargain with Oregon State University, which occurs every few years. Bargaining is conducted by a panel of University faculty and Oregon State University representatives. Preparing and engaging in collective bargaining consistitutes approximately 50% of the union's activity. Enforcement of the collective bargaining agreement is an ongoing process which takes up 35% of union activity including the elected group of faculty members who serve on the grievance and contract administration committee.
