Following the May 1-8 election period, 44 new UAB Staff Council representatives have been elected to serve a two-year term that begins in August and ends in July 2020.
Formed in 2016, the staff council, which represents 22 organizational units, is dedicated to promoting an exchange of ideas among its members, the campus community and the UAB administration. It was formed to be a voice for those who comprise a majority of UAB’s employees and provide advice and recommendations to university administration and leaders.
The new group will meet and discuss next steps during orientation June 26.
“We are so excited about this next round of staff council representatives,” said David Beeching, who will begin his stint as chair of the council in August. “In the first two years alone, we helped make UAB a more outstanding place to work, live, serve the community and learn. We want to continue to create opportunities for growth for all our employees.”
The Staff Council meets the fourth Wednesday each month in Volker 302. More information, including FAQs, contact information and bylaws, are posted on its website, uab.edu/staffcouncil.
