In a remarkable show of engagement and solidarity, 96% of our voting members recently supported a strike mandate, meaning that KUCFA can strike if necessary should a contract deal not be reached in negotiations. KUCFA will negotiate with King’s on August 29 with the aim of reaching a strong deal for Members. Fortunately for King’s, KUCFA’s bargaining mandate (excellence, equity, and sustainability) supports King’s stated ideals of scholarly excellence, social justice, and community. We are hoping for productive negotiations on the 29th, and will update you asap after this meeting.
