In September and October, it’s Trade Union Months again! If you join a union under the CAO-NU during this period, you will receive a one-time €100 discount on your membership fee of the University. These unions are FNV, AOb, CNV, and FBZ. This is a great opportunity to strengthen your position, engage in discussions about employment conditions, and make use of legal support, networking opportunities, and training through the union. More information is available via this link.
Invitation: Union Fair and Plenary Session UT
Part of the Trade Union Months
They fight for your rights, negotiate on your behalf, and as a bonus, you get a major discount on joining this fall. Curious to know what unions do at the University of Twente, or how they represent you as an employee? Or are you still unsure about becoming a member? Meet your unions at the union fair during Union Season. Who says serious matters can’t be fun?
You will get the chance to meet the four unions involved in the university collective labor agreement: AOb, FNV, CNV, and FBZ. They are also represented in OPUT, the University of Twente Staff Consultation Body. OPUT regularly discusses with the Executive Board topics that matter to you, such as how the collective labor agreement is implemented at UT.
