FSW-FF Is Working  For You!
FSW-Faculty Federation has a long and established tradition of bargaining excellence.  At the table, our bargaining team represents the interests of the membership.  Our teams have consistently bargained the best contracts in the state including

-
Shorter Contracts
-Job Protection
-Shared Governance
-Improved Working Conditions


Representation

Every union member receives exclusive representation in any issue involving terms and conditions of employment.  On the local level, our union officers and stewards are available to represent you if asked. When needed, we can ask for professionally trained field staff representation.  FSW-FF belongs to United Faculty of Florida, a professional organization with over a century of collective bargaining experience in higher education. They are available to help any union member solve critical issues, such as

-Grievance and Arbitration Hearings
-Evaluation Disagreements
-Certification Problems
-Payroll Errors

 Members receive the assurance of having trained and experienced legal council available to them through their union membership.  While non-members can hire the same legal council with money out of their own pockets, such representation would easily cost over several thousands of dollars.  The union, through UFF retains local and state attorneys who have years of experience dealing with state and local education law.

Insurance


The union provides members with one million dollars in liability insurance for on-the-job protection as well as discounts on auto, home, and life insurance.



We can do together what you cannot do alone.
