As workers represented by UAW, postdocs and ARSs have access to UAW\u2019s Strike and Defense Fund<\/strong> after losing pay for participating in a strike. Strike benefits are $500 per week in strike pay, along with medical benefits in the event that Columbia withholds healthcare benefits.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In order to access the Strike Benefits a postdoc\/ARS is expected to complete a total of 5 picket shifts and related duties per week. We will have tables at the picket lines to sign up online for strike benefits. You can sign up for picket duties here: columbiapostdocunion.org\/picket\/<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addittion, once the strike starts, we also will launch a hardship fund and will be fundraising to provide further assistance to workers who experience emergency financial hardship due to lost pay.
