Academic –Administrative Personnel Federation – Local 3983
To date your negotiation team has met with the administrative team on: February 24, 2010, March 4, 2010, March 17, 2010, March 31, 2010, April 14, 2010, May 4, 2010, May 26, 2010, June 7, 2010, June 16, 2010 & June 29, 2010.
It is important to note at this time that significant progress has been made on numerous language items. Again, although these items have been “signed off” on, I cannot yet share the specifics due to our confidentiality agreement.
There was no change in the financial offer made, and as I shared previously, we do not feel it is fair and equitable and once again rejected it. In accordance with the New Jersey Employee Relations Act, we have requested comprehensive financial documents from the college. Upon receipt of the requested items, a member of the research department, of AFT NJ State Federation (formerly NJSFT) will review them and share her findings with our team. Time will be needed to gather and review the requested information; therefore, we do no not have any further meetings scheduled at this time.
We expect to re-convene once above is completed.
Again, I want to thank each of you for your patience and support. Please know that your team is committed to settling a fair and equitable contract as soon as possible.
