2012 Contract Campaign: Job Advancement March 19, 2012

During the 1980s, hundreds of members advanced when Local 34 reformed the job classification system.  Now it is time to examine Yale’s systems again.  The overwhelming majority of Local 34 members want to advance at Yale but all too often, the pathways are not available. University shares the goal of promoting from within, but structural changes are necessary to make pathways a reality.  Our survey identified four problem areas to address: the hiring process, the job audit process, training, and misclassified work.

Clear, accessible promotion opportunities allow our members to gain skills and build careers with dignity.  So, we are committed to building power and winning the changes that will make job advancement a reality.  Click on the image below to read more.
