Modified Summer Work Schedule Settled

After several weeks and negotiations sessions, an agreement was reached with the MSU administration regarding the work schedule for this summer. Please click here to read it. There is also Table Talk associated with this agreement. Both of these documents can be found on our Contracts tab as well.

A number of members expressed their concerns over the new time the university wants us to work during the summer. Please know that the MSU administration recognizes that there are circumstances that might make working an 8:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. schedule difficult, and the Table Talk associated with this agreement may be helpful to you.

If you have questions about requesting a modified schedule, please email Lisa Ambrose at: lisa.ambrose@aftlocal1904.org.
