Dear Sessionals,

As you may be aware, your Collective Agreement expires on August 31, 2024. This Collective Agreement provides all of your rights, benefits, and entitlements as Sessional Faculty at McMaster. Your elected bargaining team will be negotiating a new and improved Collective Agreement this summer and we need your help.

Please take a few moments to fill out your bargaining survey. Doing so allows your voice to be heard and ensures that your priorities are advanced at the bargaining table.

The survey is anonymous (unless you choose to provide your email) and the link is here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/CUPE2024. It closes on March 17th.

Over the years, your strength and solidarity has helped to make improvements to your Collective Agreement, including winning access to items such as a Professional Development Fund, Dental Plan, Training Fund, Health Care Spending Account, improved job security, wage increases, and much more. Collective bargaining provides us with the opportunity to make further improvements to these items, as well as to secure new benefits and entitlements that we do not currently have access to.

Together, we can secure a stronger Collective Agreement!

If you have any questions about the survey, please email staff@cupe3906.org
