Dear Members,
After three intensive days of conciliation, we are pleased to inform you that the APUO and the Employer negotiating teams reached a two-year tentative agreement late this afternoon.
We consider this to be the best possible agreement under the current circumstances. A Special General Meeting (SGM) and secret ratification vote will be held in the coming weeks. We will send you the relevant information as soon as possible.
Over the past seven months, we have demonstrated our collective strength and our ability to intensify the fight to defend the mission of our university.
We would like to thank APUO Members for their support throughout this round of negotiations.
In solidarity,
The APUO’s Negotiation Team
