Cleaning Staff strike from November 10 through November 23

Published on 09-11-2026 17:34
Cleaning staff who are members of the FNV union will go on strike from November 10 through November 23. They are doing so because they are dissatisfied with the new collective bargaining agreement. During this nationwide strike, essential cleaning services at the UvA will be maintained as much as possible.

Restrooms and classrooms will be given priority during the strike. Offices and meeting rooms will be given lower priority, so certain areas may be less clean than they would be under normal staffing levels. Depending on how many cleaning staff participate in the strike, the impact may vary by campus. At Roeterseiland, around 80% of staff are on strike, meaning that the number of cleaning staff on duty is lower than usual.

The faculties will be kept informed about the situation on their campus. If you have any questions, you can also contact the campus facilities coordinator.
