MC seal

 

Dear Adjunct Faculty and Lecturers,

Mercy College and the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) met on Wednesday, January 6, 2021 to continue negotiating the initial collective bargaining agreement between the parties. We shared and/or discussed proposals on the following collective bargaining agreement topics: Union Rights, Management Rights, Inclusion in the Academic Community, Grievance Procedure, Arbitration, and Discipline and Discharge.

The College has offered additional dates for bargaining in January, February and March. We look forward to continuing to work with the SEIU toward additional agreements.

We will continue to provide you with regular updates on our progress as this important process moves forward.

Sincerely,

Mercy College Management Bargaining Team
