Collective Bargaining

Collective bargaining, also called Bargaining or Negotiations, is the process used to update the Collective Agreement between CUPE 951 and the University of Victoria. Generally, the Negotiating Committee is struck prior to the expiration of the Collective Agreement. Members of that committee receive training in collective bargaining techniques and those members will work with representatives from the University to negotiate everything from contract language to benefits and salaries.
