Northwestern Polytechnic (Fairview): Employer slightly increases wage offer
Bargaining update for Local 071 Chapter 007, Northwestern Polytechnic
Oct 23, 2025
Your negotiating team met with the employer on Oct. 9 to continue bargaining. We had productive discussions about our priorities and gave the employer our counteroffer to their June 5 wage proposals.
The employer came back with a small wage increase. While the increased offer is encouraging, your team feels that it is still far below what we deserve. The employer’s response addressed very few of our other monetary proposals.
We will counter the employer’s latest offer when we next meet. Our next bargaining dates are tentatively scheduled for Nov. 21.
Important bargaining survey coming soon
Your negotiating team needs your opinion on what we should prioritize throughout the remainder of bargaining.
We will send you a bargaining survey before the end of October. Please watch your inbox for the survey - don't miss your chance to share what matters most to you!
Please contact a member of your negotiating team if you have any questions or concerns.
