We're Asking Questions About Workers Returning to Campus

A de-densified campus only protects workers if it stays that way.  That's why AFSCME is questioning the Provost's plan to require staffing for all academic units.  For months large portions of the workforce have been able to work remotely - and successfully.  Even more important are the childcare and homeschooling problems workers still face; how can they report and fullfill their responsibilities to their children?

AFSCME continues to demand bargaining over these issues.
