Take the Bargaining Survey TODAY.  

Your CAPS Bargaining Team (CAPS Team) needs to hear from YOU – it’s the only way that we can represent YOUR demands at the table. 

The last time the CAPS Team met with the State, we provided them with some summary data from the most up-to-date survey results. The only question from the State’s Team on the data was how many scientists were included in the survey data shared thus far. We need participation from ALL State Scientists to make an impact and send a clear message to the State: Scientists are engaged and ready to work to make their demands HEARD. As of today, we have only heard from XX% of you.  If you’ve already taken the survey, great job! Please reach out to all your State Scientist colleagues and make sure they have, too.   

If you can’t take the survey right now, set a reminder to do it as soon as you can.  Your CAPS Bargaining Team meets with the State again on Tuesday, April 25. We need to hear from you and your colleagues.   

Logistics: 

  • The survey is 76 questions. Please plan your time accordingly.  
  • Be sure to open all the links in a new tab by right-clicking the links so you don’t lose your progress on the survey.
