Work here at UWSA continues on behalf of all members, and I am very pleased to report we’ve had some big wins this year! Here’s just a few of them:
Over the past weeks, your UWSA has been actively working with UW on behalf of our members in several areas: an updated performance appraisal process for 2020, safety procedures for those working on campus, our compensation agreement (which expires at the end of April), and a revised Memorandum of Agreement. These are important issues for our members, and we’ve been working hard to ensure staff interests are at top of mind for each. I’ve provided a brief update on each of these areas, and I’m happy to hear from anyone who has any questions about this work.
First, I would like to thank all of our members for your support during my term as President. My term has ended and I now pass the baton onto Kathy Becker who, I believe, will be a strong champion for staff!
I would also like to thank the team I had in the UWSA Board of Directors and our UWSA Staff. They help support all of our initiatives in so many ways. A very dedicated and enthusiastic bunch of people!
