Non-Tenure Track Faculty Grievance Procedures

Grievance Procedure Overview

The Rutgers AAUP-AFT assists faculty members in finding informal solutions to problems they face in the workplace. The staff of the union routinely meets with faculty members to discuss and explore ways to resolve issues of many kinds. If resolution is not achievable through informal efforts, faculty members are advised as to whether the issue(s) in question are cognizable through one of the two negotiated grievance procedures and/or whether other avenues are available.

If you have questions and/or need information in general about university practices, policies or rules, you can find assistance by contacting our office. We will attempt to answer any questions you may have.

Rutgers AAUP-AFT is authorized to pursue grievances on behalf of its members under the collective bargaining agreement with Rutgers, the State University. It does not provide members with lawyers or legal advice for the pursuit of outside discrimination claims. State and federal laws provide individual avenues separate from the union-negotiated contract to pursue claims of violations of anti-discrimination laws. Consult this “FAQ’s Concerning Discrimination and the Law” for information about your rights and obligations under state and federal laws.

Staff

The Rutgers AAUP-AFT Contract Enforcement/Grievance Department has three staff members: BJ Walker, Damon Fillman, and Wendy Asreen. Members of the AAUP-AFT Grievance and Working Conditions Committee are set forth in the Union’s Bylaws.
