Since bargaining is a fluid process, Bargaining Team updates for members are typically written at the end of the bargaining day (which sometimes extends into the evening) and circulated either that night or the following morning. Bargaining is not scheduled each and every day.
We would like to stress that a key tactic of the Employer has been to create uncertainty/anxiety among members by withholding information from YUFA and the university community, or circulating partial, misleading, threatening and/or unclear messages. YUFA members remain supportive of the Bargaining Team and united in their resolve, and will not be intimidated by such behaviour from the Employer.
As discussed at the last YUFA Special General Members Meeting (SGMM), if there are any interruptions to bargaining, the Executive will call another SGMM.
YUFA continues to hold drop-in information sessions on Wednesdays from noon - 1 p.m., which all YUFA members are encouraged to attend. The link for the drop-in sessions are circulated via YUFA-M each week and can be requested by emailing [email protected]. At the August 7th drop-in we will provide information on the fundamentals of bargaining and ‘how to read an Employer email’, plus Q&A and discussion as usual.
