On Monday after an olympic style, five-hour marathon bargaining session, our 16th, the UFF and Board of Trustees came to an agreement on changes to the collective bargaining agreement. Here are the five signed tentative agreement documents.
Opened at the behest of the Board of Trustees bargaining team, “Article 10 Performance Evaluations” with modifications for Post Tenure Review and “Article 21 Other Faculty Rights” with modifications for building air quality maintenance.
Opened by request of the UFF-FSU chapter Negotiating Team, “Article 20 Grievances and Arbitration” with modifications for new Florida Statute prohibiting arbitration in most cases and “Article 22 Sabbatical and Professional Development Leave” to allow non-teaching specialized faculty to take PDL in smaller time periods.
And of course “Article 23 Salaries” which is opened every year as required by the Collective Bargaining Agreement. These articles must be approved by a vote of the faculty and signed by the president to become part of the contract for this 2024-2025 academic year. A full summary of the changes bargained on your behalf will be forthcoming soon.
