Welcome to the University of University of California and UAW Local 5810, the Union of Postdocs. Through the Union we bargain collectively over the terms and conditions of employment for Postdoctoral Scholars.

Our strong majority membership has allowed us to negotiate and enforce wage increases for all Postdocs, improvements to health insurance, improved job security, rights for International Postdocs, strong non-discrimination and sexual harassment protections, as well as other improvements.

If you have not signed up as a member, please print a UAW 5810 Membership Form, fill it out and return it to the Union.
