The five-day strike, a first in the university’s 257-year history that involved near 9,000 faculty members, ended Saturday after union and university leadership reached a tentative agreement.
The strike involved about 9,000 Rutgers faculty members and staff as well as students.The tentative agreement includes salary boosts across the board for full-time faculty and counselors by at least 14% by July 1, 2025. It also includes higher pay for adjuncts, postdoctoral fellows and graduate students, as well as greater job security for adjuncts.
The contracts, which will need to be voted on by the unions’ members, would be retroactive to July 1, 2022. The strike began Monday after about 9,000 Rutgers faculty and staff walked off the job, disrupting classes for the university’s 67,000 students statewide, many of whom joined the picket line. The strikers were seeking increased pay, better job security for adjunct faculty and guaranteed funding for graduate students.The drastic demonstration came after almost a year of stalled contract negotiations, according to strikers.
In a joint statement, the unions noted that there were still “open issues” that needed to be addressed, but said the strike helped them achieve “vital progress” for their contracts goals. “The agreements we secured in this framework are a testament to all the workers, students and community members who organized, talked to colleagues and friends, walked the picket lines and marched in New Brunswick, Newark and Camden,”
