The Universities Coordinated Bargaining Committee reports it will work to protect and improve wages, rights and benefits for its members.
Serving notice were CUPE 917, CUPE 951, one component of CUPE 4163 (University of Victoria), CUPE 3886 (Royal Roads), CUPE 3338 (Simon Fraser University), CUPE 4879 (Thompson Rivers University), and CUPE 3799 (University of Northern BC). The Teaching Support Staff Union at SFU also served notice to bargain Monday.
