Brandeis Dining Services workers who are represented by Local 26 of UniteHere (a national union of hospitality and food service workers) are renegotiating their contract with Aramark this summer/early fall. As we enter into the final stretch of school, we in the Brandeis Labor Coalition (BLC) want to rally as much student, staff, and faculty support as possible to show Aramark that they must sign a contract that provides raises, rights, and respect Brandeis workers.
There are a few different ways to get involved and actively demonstrate your support for the campus’ dining services workers:
1. Sign the online petition and pass it along to your friends.
2. Attend a meeting this Wednesday with Unite Here representatives, campus workers, and members of the BLC at 2:30pm this Wednesday in Lower Usdan
3. In Waltham/Brandeis over the summer? You can have the opportunity to join the negotiation team and bargain directly with Unite Here reps, workers, and Aramark staff
4. Contact Rachel Sier, rsier@brandeis.edu, if you want more information about the upcoming campaign
