Welcome to UPTE
Your title is now union-represented!
Business Systems Analysts 4 and 5 and Data Systems Analysts 3, 4, and 5 now have a collective voice through University Professional and Technical Employees (UPTE), the union of over 28,000 technical, healthcare, and research professionals at the University of California!

You are now covered by an UPTE contract, which secures our wages, benefits, and working conditions, thanks to the sacrifice of thousands of UPTE members. Go here to review the latest victories from our 2025 negotiations. You are eligible for all UPTE-negotiated raises from this date forward.

Receive better retirement benefits if you were hired after July 1, 2013. You will join the 2013 Modified UCRP pension tier, allowing retirement as early as age 50 (with full benefits by age 60). There are no changes to retirement benefits for those hired (or rehired following a break in service of less than 120 days) before July 1, 2013. UPTE-represented employees contribute 9% of salary to the University of California Retirement Plan.
