LEO-GLAM 2025 Bargaining Wins: Work Schedules, Modes, and Locations
Modes of work are now codified in the contract using university aligned language (onsite, hybrid, and mobile/remote). Doesn’t sound that exciting, but it’s a good thing. We promise.

LEO-GLAM 2025 Bargaining Wins: Term Appointments
