The University of California (UC) and the Federated University Police Officers’ Association (FUPOA) continued bargaining April 14–15 over a new contract for approximately 266 sworn, non-supervisory police officers. The current contract for the Police Officers Unit (PA) is set to expire on June 30.
During the two-day bargaining session, the Union passed counterproposals on Uniforms and Fitness Allowance, University Benefits, Wages, and Specialty Pay, a subsection of the Wages article. The University passed counterproposals on Uniforms and Fitness Allowance, and Duration and Wages, along with proposals that address Parking, Parking Caps, and Retirement Calculations.
In a constructive sign of partnership and progress, the parties reached an agreement on the Grievance Procedure article.
These negotiations come as campus policing continues to evolve in response to cultural, political, and operational changes, with UC officers often working in complex environments that require a combination of law enforcement expertise, engagement, and adaptability. The University is grateful for the critical role they play in maintaining safety and security while fostering a supportive environment for students, faculty, staff, patients, and visitors, as we work toward a balanced agreement that reflects our shared mission of public service, academic excellence, and institutional stewardship.
The parties will continue bargaining on April 28-29.
