We’ve Voted to Ratify Our Contract
Max Max

We’ve Voted to Ratify Our Contract

We did it: UVM Staff United has voted overwhelmingly to ratify our contract. In the final tally, 923 people or 77% of our membership voted in our ratification election, with 919 voting yes and 4 voting no. With the close of voting at 5pm yesterday, our contract was officially ratified on the UVM Staff United side. This contract - our union’s second ever - represents an advance in worker rights at the University of Vermont. In every article, we either made progress or maintained status quo: there are no losses to our rights in this contract.
