UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA: IMPROVE POSTDOC WORKING CONDITIONS TO ADVANCE UC RESEARCH

We, the undersigned majority of Postdocs, call on UC Academic Leadership to support our contract demands as we bargain for improved working conditions which will in turn advance UC’s research mission.
A FAIR CONTRACT MUST:
  • Create a more inclusive and equitable research environment
  • Increase compensation to recruit and retain a diverse workforce by matching National Academies of Science, Engineering and Medicine salary guidelines and by providing housing support and comprehensive benefits
  • Improve Postdoc job security and opportunities for career development, and 
  • Promote green transportation options to address the climate crisis
We further call on the UC Academic Leadership to tell the UC Office of the President to drop its objections and begin bargaining with all Student Researchers who have democratically chosen to form Student Researchers United-UAW. Student Researchers are integral members of the UC research community, represent the future of our profession, and must have a voice in their working conditions.
