Academic Union

An academic union is an organization that represents the collective interests of university staff, including professors, researchers, and sometimes administrative personnel. It advocates for fair wages, improved working conditions, benefits, and job security through negotiations with university management. The union also supports members by providing resources, legal assistance, and a collective voice on issues affecting their professional lives. Essentially, it functions as a collective bargaining body to ensure members' rights are protected and their concerns are addressed within the academic environment.
