Your Voice.
Your Rights.
Your Union.
We are the United Faculty of Florida chapter for Florida International University — the labor union that advocates for fair salaries, academic freedom, and better working conditions for all FIU faculty.
Why Join UFF?
Membership means protection, representation, and a collective voice in shaping university policy.
Collective Bargaining
UFF negotiates the Collective Bargaining Agreement that determines your salary, benefits, and terms of employment — giving it the force of law. Our bargaining team advocates for you at every reopener and full-book negotiation.
View CBA & Updates →Liability Insurance
Every member receives a $1 million liability insurance policy, protecting you if you're sued in connection with your job.
Grievance Protection
Without the union, defending your rights means personally hiring a lawyer. Members get full representation at no cost.
Shared Governance
We advocate for shared governance — ensuring faculty have a meaningful role in university decision-making.
Legal Consultation
Two free attorney consultations and reduced legal fees for personal matters through our affiliate network.

Stay Connected
Register your personal email for secure union communications.
Register Your Non-FIU Email
Under Florida law, public employee unions are restricted from using university-owned email systems for union communications. Additionally, any emails sent or received on university servers are subject to public records requests under Chapter 119 of the Florida Statutes. Registering your personal, non-FIU email ensures you receive secure, direct updates regarding contract negotiations, grievances, and chapter business in full compliance with state regulations.
