IMPORTANT: GSOC UAW STRIKE FUND: REGISTER IN-PERSON/ZOOM STARTING TOMORROW
Dear Members,
We just received more information from the UAW (our parent union) about our strike benefits that slightly alters the mechanism for receiving the strike benefits. We were expecting the registration to be entirely online, however the UAW staff has informed us that officials from the UAW’s Strike Department will be registering workers in-person near our picket-line to receive the strike benefits. In order to receive strike benefits, you must come in person to register if you’re in NYC, or register on Zoom if you’re not. See below for the currently scheduled times and locations for registration.
What if I am not in NYC or in the United States?
The UAW has arranged registration over Zoom for strikers who are working remotely and are unable to make it to the in-person registration. They have sent us a link for Sunday (see below). Information for subsequent days will be sent soon.
What will I need to register?
Please bring a photo ID, and your social security number.
All striking workers will be required to do this to receive strike benefits, even if you have filled out the GSOC UAW Strike Fund Request Form.
Eligibility for strike benefits
- you must have a current bargaining unit appointment
- you anticipate that you will not be paid by NYU for the weeks you are striking
- you must be actively striking that appointment (withholding your labor) and participating in some form of strike duty (attending the picket line in-person or virtually)
