UUP Binghamton

UUP’s Negotiations Team met with state negotiators Dec. 1-2. UUP received additional proposals from
the state, as well as further clarification of the state’s previously presented proposals.

Discussion of health benefits as and UUP’s non-monetary items under a variety of contract articles and appendices also continued.

UUP’s negotiations are steadily moving beyond discussion at a general level and are now focused on hammering out the details of possible agreements on a variety of issues.

Two additional meetings are scheduled for December and plans for January meeting dates will be finalized this week.

By the end of December, the two sides will have had 15 formal negotiations sessions, each typically
involving many hours of discussion.
