​The California State University (CSU) has reached a tentative agreement with United Auto Workers (UAW) Local 4123 that would provide meaningful compensation increases for Unit 11 employees. UAW 4123 represents over 10,000 academic student workers across the CSU system.

Under the tentative agreement, eligible UAW represented employees would receive:

A $3.2 milli​on compensation pool for one-time payments
A 4% salary increase retroactive to July 1, 2026
An additional 4% salary increase effective July 1, 2027
“This agreement demonstrates the shared commitment of both parties to find common ground and take action in the best intere​sts of the CSU’s valued employees,” said CSU Chancellor Mildred García. “While labor negotiations are never easy, they are essential to fairly compensating and supporting our dedicated employees, allowing the CSU to remain fiscally sustainable and ensuring that we stay on a path that advances student success for years to come.”

The agreement comes less than a week after the CSU reached a similar tentati​ve agreement with the Academic Professionals of California.

The CSU remains committed to working with its labor partners to reach agreements that provide competitive compensation and high-quality benefits while supporting students and maintaining the university’s long-term financial sustainability.
