WE ARE Yale clerical and technical employees who care about our work and about the university we work for.

 In 1983 we created a union in our own image—about us, by us, for us—that recognized the unique position Yale C&Ts occupy in the university family.

Though we've had to sometimes fight hard to make our voices heard, we know that our goals and the highest ideals of Yale University are fundamentally linked.

For more about the beginnings of our union, visit the History section.

To find out how you can be a part of creating our union's future, see the Get Involved section.

 

 

Library Staff Call for Dialogue on
Staffing and Decision-Making

Throughout the month of September, Local 34 members from the Library leafleted the Library's entrances to inform patrons about ongoing staffing issues that could affect Library services. In the spirit of Best Practices, Library staff are seeking a meaningful dialogue with the Library administration on how to address these problems.

Download the leaflets and read Library staff members' stories by clicking here. (.zip file, 4mb)
