New Collective Bargaining Agreements


The Office of Labor Relations has been conducting negotiations for collective agreements with the various unions that represent many staff employees at the university. An agreement from July 1, 2006, through June 30, 2009, has been executed with the Fraternal Order of Police–Primary Unit, and an agreement from July 1, 2007, through June 30, 2011, has been executed with AFSCME Local 888. Both contracts are published on UHR’s Labor Agreements webpage. Agreements have also been ratified with AFSCME Local 1761, the International Union of Operating Engineers, and the Rutgers Council of AAUP EOF Bargaining Unit. Once finalized, those agreements will also be available on the UHR website. For your reference, UHR also maintains Archived Staff Labor Agreements, which contains prior collective agreements.
