WORKING ON IT: Successful bargaining outcomes!

GSU bargaining committees and staff representatives are working hard to ensure successful bargaining outcomes

Bargaining is a complex process that goes far beyond just attending the actual negotiation meetings with company representatives. It involves thorough preparation, strategy, and coordination.

Our staff representatives work closely with the elected bargaining committees, which are comprised of union members and officers chosen by their peers. Together, they review proposals, analyze employer offers, and strategize on the best approach to secure a fair agreement. This preparation ensures that every step of the process aligns with the goals and priorities of our members.

In addition to preparing for negotiation meetings, staff representatives are gathering important data and conducting research to ensure our bargaining committees have the information they need to make informed decisions and reach agreements that reflect the best interests of members.
