NTEU/NPS Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) Survey

As we prepare to begin negotiations over a new contract that will cover many key aspects of your everyday working life, NTEU wants your feedback on bargaining priorities and what matters most to you.

Many of the rights, benefits and programs you enjoy today are because of your NTEU contract. We intend to build on these gains during negotiations over a new contract.

Please complete this brief survey for NTEU members only by Friday, May 24. Employee feedback may be shared with NPS management to further our work to support you, but your responses will remain anonymous.
