As a positive sign of collaborative, good-faith bargaining, the University of California and Teamsters Local 2010 have reached a contract extension agreement. The contract for the union, which represents 18,820 clerical and allied services employees across the UC system, will now expire May 30, 2026.
“These additional two months of bargaining allow us to build on the constructive progress already made and continue working together toward a fair agreement that reflects the contributions of our clerical and allied services employees,” said Missy Matella, Associate Vice President for Systemwide Employee and Labor Relations. “We appreciate the collaborative spirit shown by Teamsters Local 2010 and remain committed to reaching a contract that supports our workforce and the important work happening across the UC system.”
The extension comes as UC continues good-faith negotiations with five of the nine systemwide unions, including the United Auto Workers (UAW), the Committee of Interns and Residents–Service Employees International Union (CIR-SEIU), the Federated University Police Officers’ Association (FUPOA), the American Federation of Teachers (UC-AFT) and the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME).
Since bargaining began in September, UC and Teamsters have exchanged 109 proposals and reached tentative agreements on 30 articles. The parties will continue negotiations on March 17.
