MSO (Missouri Staff Organization) is the recognized union of the associate staff who work for Missouri NEA. MPSO (Missouri Professional Staff Organization) is the recognized union of the professional staff who work for Missouri NEA. Both staff unions have a bargained contract with Missouri NEA, and that contract affords us inherent rights and responsibilities. We work hard to preserve our rights and uphold our contact language. When a violation occurs, we utilize the grievance and/or arbitration process ourlined in our contracts. These are our union rights, which we have collectively bargained.
The purpose of the MSO-MPSO Blog is to accomplish the following:
(1) Keep the members of both unions (MSO and MPSO) informed of important issues, concerns and events that affect us.
(2) Provide other interested parties a place to find more information about the staff unions' issues, concerns and events, as well as the staff unions' perspectives.
(3) Provide a forum for both members and other interested parties to share thoughts and ideas about MSO and MPSO issues, concerns and events listed on this blog.
We ask that all posts are respectful and refrain from using profanity. Thank you for your interest!
