We are proud and happy to announce that HUCTW and the University have initialed a Tentative Agreement, bringing our protracted and difficult 2012 contract negotiations to a successful close. The Tentative Agreement will not be finalized and implemented until it is voted on and ratified by the members of HUCTW. Very shortly you will hear about details for a lunchtime meeting in your part of the campus, and you will receive a detailed, written summary of the settlement, including all specifics on the pay program, a salary calculator that allows you to figure out your exact increase, and new contract language. The date for ratification voting is Tuesday, April 2. You must bring your Harvard ID or another photo ID to vote.

As the University recovers and we see signs of growth and optimism across the campus every day, it is critically important for Harvard to invest in the solid pay increases and affordable health care that will build and maintain a stable, high-quality working community.
Our members are deeply loyal to the University’s mission and to their work with the Harvard community, and everything we do as a Union reflects that commitment.
