SEBAC Health Care Survey
Preparations are underway as the 35 local bargaining units under SEBAC, the (State Employee Bargaining Agent Coalition), near the formal start of negotiations with the State for the next SEBAC Pension and Healthcare Agreement.
Throughout the past year, SEBAC held three in-person statewide SEBAC meetings with hundreds of leaders and staff from across the coalition. SEBAC has held listening sessions on key areas like Tier IV, Hazardous Duty, Telework and Higher Education, bringing rank-and-file member stories directly to the Governor’s Chief of Staff. Over 7,00 members completed the first survey last year that shaped those initial steps and as we embark on this next phase, it’s more important than ever that we hear from as many rank-and-file members.
This survey asks about your bargaining unit, years of service, retirement tier, benefits, workplace issues, and the actions you may be willing to take to help win a fair agreement. If you filled out the survey the first time, we are interested in whether any of your thoughts, concerns and opinions have changed. If you missed the first survey, this is your chance to let your voice be heard ahead of negotiations!!! HERE is a link to the new survey.

UConn-AAUP Staff Union Negotiations
The staff of the UConn-AAUP have formed a union, known as the UConn-AAUP Staff Union (UASU). UConn-AAUP has formally recognized the new union, and the two parties are currently negotiating a contract. As is the norm, the UASU does not include the Executive Director.
AAUP members who are interested in serving as an observer at a contract bargaining session should contact Prof. Jeremy Pressman for further information at jeremy.pressman@gmail.com
