After 14 months of negotiations, we have ratified our second union contract for Arcadia adjuncts with a 98% yes vote! Our new contract includes:

Increases to affordable healthcare access, more than tripling the number of adjunct faculty eligible for full health insurance coverage.

Improvements to job stability with year-long contracts for 20 senior adjuncts, and an expanded course cancellation policy protecting against both late and early course cancellations.

A new 5% retirement match for adjunct faculty, an increase of 3%.

Pay increases every year for the next 3 years.

An initial pay raise retroactive to the start of the Fall 2022 semester for all adjunct faculty.

We are the first Bargaining Unit of UAP! We won our union for adjunct faculty in 2017. Now that we’ve ratified our second union contract, we’re looking for union members like you to become a Union Steward and learn more about our contract to help make sure all Arcadia adjuncts know about their benefits & protections!
