April 1 Paycheck Will Reflect
5% Salary Increase 

Good news for CSUEU members: Look for a 5% salary increase next week in the April 1 paycheck, and then another 5% on August 1. The pay increases, totalling 10.25% over two years when factoring in compound earnings, are the result of successful negotiations last year, which extended our contract with the CSU to 2026. 

We won these raises by banding together in union. Member strength is key and every voice counts. If you haven't gotten around to joining Team CSUEU, activate your membership today!

Union Leaders Meet with CSU to Update
Job Classifications

One big win our Bargaining Team negotiated in last year's contract talks was gaining Management commitment to review outdated job classifications. 

As Jessica Westbay, CSUEU Vice President for Representation, told the Board of Trustees this week: "This is important work because we need to ensure that the classifications people are working in match the type of work they are actually performing. Multiple classifications under review have not been updated since the 1980s."

Some 9,000 CSUEU-represented staff members will benefit from the classification review.

"We look forward to productive work with CSU Management that will help the CSU not only attract but retain talented staff whose work helps students succeed from enrollment through graduation," said Jessica.

CSUEU Bargaining Unit 15 Gets Ready for Contract Negotiations

Step by step, Student Assistants are marching forward - led by 10 amazing Student Assistant activists who now officially form the Bargaining Team. 

Nominated from across Northern and Southern CSU campuses, the team is diverse, talented, and determined to win a great first contract with thousands of workers standing right behind them. Check out team members on these YouTube shorts!

Student Assistants' first act as unionized workers was to address the Board of Trustees this week (March 26). Theresa Limbeek, Bargaining Team member from Fullerton, gave Trustees a heads up that among the many issues workers want to tackle are: low pay, lack of paid sick days, and unaffordable parking.

More Union Wins ...

The California Labor Federation is celebrating women leaders in the labor movement all month long.

CSUEU President Catherine Hutchinson received some social media love this week on X (Twitter). The post describes her as "a true champion for working Californians! As a Professor of Biology at CSU Channel Islands & CSU San Bernardino, she's left a lasting legacy of empowerment on her students & colleagues alike."

We didn't need more research to tell us that organizing into a union was the right thing to do...but here it is:

A Center for American Progress analysis shows that union membership is associated with greater wealth for working-class families - defined as households without a four-year college degree. The positive effect increases for working-class families of color. Click to expand the infograghic. Here's to #UnionsForAll
