The University of California proposed increased wages for the more than 20,000 UC employees represented by Teamsters Local 2010 during negotiations last week. Under the proposal, the Clerical & Allied Services Workers bargaining unit would receive a 20.94% raise over the course of the four-year contract. The package includes yearly pay range increases and annual step increases for eligible employees. The proposal applies to all UC campuses and medical centers, except for Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL), which follows a separate process due to its funding structure.

During the two-day bargaining session, UC also presented a Holidays proposal that maintains a robust holiday package, including 14 major state and federal holidays, paid holiday time, enhanced pay for holidays worked, and guaranteed access to major holiday periods off. UC also presented proposals for articles on Resignation and Agreement. The union proposed articles on Health and Benefits, Sick Leave, Holidays, Wages and Medical Separation.
The parties reached a tentative agreement on the Nondiscrimination in Employment and Resignation/Job Abandonment articles.

Clerical and administrative staff play a vital role in the UC system’s work and global impact. Amid continued uncertainty in the federal budget landscape, UC remains focused on maintaining stable, responsible financial operations while investing in these critically important employees. Bargaining will continue on Jan. 13.
