Employees' Union
The Employees' Union is the representative body of the University's employees, acting as the voice of all staff members across various departments. The Union's administrative board is composed of university employees who are democratically elected through an annual election process, ensuring that the leadership is truly reflective of the broader employee base.
As the elected body, the Employees' Union is deeply committed to defending the legal rights and interests of all employees. This commitment includes advocating for fair labor practices, ensuring that all staff, regardless of their position, have the freedom to associate and engage in collective bargaining. The university, as an institution, fully recognizes and supports these rights, guaranteeing that all employees, including women and international staff, have equal access to union representation and labor rights.
