UAW LOCAL 4100
UAW Local 4100 is a union of postdoctoral researchers dedicated to advancing the rights, working conditions, and professional futures of academic workers in New York City.
As researchers, we drive innovation, mentor students, secure grants, and power the research enterprise. As union members, we organize collectively to ensure that our work is valued and that our workplaces are inclusive, transparent, and accountable. Through years of organizing and collective bargaining, we built a strong foundation for fair pay, comprehensive benefits, job security, and a more equitable academic workplace.
Our union.
Our Local currently represents postdoctoral researchers at Columbia University (CPW), Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai (SPOC), and Weill Cornell Medicine (WCMPU).
Our rights.
Through their unions, postdoctoral researchers in New York City have won contractual rights that set national standards, including higher pay, protections against abuse and harassment longer appointment lengths, and more.
Our future.
UAW 4100 members are part of the movement of workers across the country who are fighting for rights, power, and justice in our workplaces.
