York’s Bargaining Philosophy

We recognize and respect the important contributions that the casual student employees in the CUPE 1356-2 bargaining unit make to York University.

We look forward, with the assistance of the provincially appointed conciliator, to successfully reaching a renewed collective agreement with CUPE 1356-2. It is important that York continues to deliver the best possible learning and working experience for our students, faculty and staff, while continuing to provide a workplace opportunity to help provide for the financial needs of our casual part-time student employees.
