Pictures From Coalition Of University Employees Protest Against Bad-Faith Bargaining by UC

"CUE/UPTE/AFSCME: we are the unions that represent clerical, technical, and service workers at UC. UC tells use there are millions of dollars set aside for top executives and capital projects but there is not a single dime for cost of living adjustment or step based merit increase for unionized workers."

"For years unionized workers at UC have been suffering stagnant wages. It is fair to say that we have been getting pay cuts when we take into account the sharp increases in cost of living from housing, food, energy, transportation, to insurance. In addition, continuous and drastic work force reduction have resulted in an unbearable level of workload for rank and file workers. This has led to declining quality of education or services in classrooms, libraries, laboratories, dining facilities and administrative offices."
