Bargaining Update 2011 #15
December 9, 2011
The CSUEU bargaining team met with CSU management at the Office of the Chancellor in Long Beach from Monday, December 5, through Thursday, December 8, with Thursday as an additional day beyond the originally scheduled three days of sessions. The two sides reached a tentative agreement on many articles of the contract. Importantly, protection from layoffs is included in the agreement.
Although the bargaining team is studying management’s proposal on parking fees, significant progress was made on this hot-button issue.
“As a result of our dramatic presentation at the November 15 CSU Board of Trustees meeting, management has heard us loud and clear about how difficult a parking fee increase could be for many of our members,” said VP for Representation Russell Kilday-Hicks.
Also unresolved are such significant issues as salary structure (Article 20) and protection against contracting out of bargaining unit work (Article 3).
“We are certainly more hopeful than we were before these latest sessions,” explained Kilday-Hicks. “There are still have some significant roadblocks to an overall contract agreement, but, with the type of continuing strong support that our members have shown around parking fees, we hope to reach agreement in the new year.”
Two further meetings with management have been scheduled for Thursday and Friday, January 12-13, at the Office of the Chancellor.
