 <\/p>\n

New Article- Immigration Status and Work Authorization<\/strong><\/p>\n

MOU- Immigration Status and Work Authorization was incorporated into this new article. New language was added that the Union and University, including a representative of the University\u2019s International Student Services (ISS) office, shall meet upon request up to four times per calendar year to discuss issues arising from academic student employment, immigration status, and work authorization. New language was added that ASEs may request and be granted up to four hours of paid immigration-related time off annually when given one week\u2019s prior notice to attend any appointments, hearings, and\/or proceedings related to their own immigration or citizenship status scheduled by federal immigration officials or the U.S. Department of State. Additionally, the University will not unreasonably deny requests for vacation time off for the purpose of attending appointments, hearings, and\/or proceedings related to immigration or citizenship status of the ASE\u2019s spouse, registered domestic partner, child, or parent scheduled by federal immigration officials or the U.S. Department of State. New language was added that if the University is not able to lawfully employ or continue to employ an ASE as a result of the ASE’s immigration status, upon request, the University agrees to meet with the ASE and the Union to discuss possible employment or re-employment scenarios. The University agrees to make reasonable efforts to employ or re-employ the ASE as soon as possible after they have notified their department of their work authorization or immigration status that lawfully permits them to work as an ASE.<\/p>\n
