We’re very happy to launch the first Student Researchers United bargaining survey! Completing this survey will help build our collective understanding of what improvements are important to SRs, and collect more ideas and feedback.

CLICK TO TAKE THE BARGAINING SURVEY

We are continuing to wait for UC to provide a complete list of Student Researcher employees to California’s Public Employment Relations Board (PERB). Last week, UC provided a partial list of GSRs and GSARs to PERB, but they also requested a 28 day extension to file a complete list that includes Trainees and Fellows. While UC finishes putting their list together, we are continuing to organize and talk with our coworkers about the improvements we want to see at work.

Today, we move towards winning our first contract with the launch of the SRU-UAW bargaining survey. We need to hear from every SR and show the UC that thousands of us are united in transforming our workplace for the better. As the process of verifying our majority and winning recognition continues, make your voice heard on important issues including compensation, health and safety, rights for parenting and international Student Researchers, and protections against harassment and discrimination.  

In solidarity,
