Bargaining Updates

Tentative Agreement Reached with CSUEU

On Friday, January 13, 2012, the California State University reached a tentative agreement on a new collective bargaining agreement with the California State University Employees' Union—that represents over 15,000 employees in the health care, operations, clerical and technical support functions. Upon ratification, this new three-year agreement will run until June 30, 2014. The parties agreed that salaries and parking rates would be maintained for Fiscal Year 2011-2012 at the current rates and that either side may reopen salary and benefits in fiscal year 2012-2013 and 2013-2014. Finally, the parties agreed to language changes that provided needed clarifications in the agreement.

"Given the tough fiscal environment that faces the University, this agreement provides stability in terms and conditions of employment and is a welcome conclusion to over nine months of bargaining," said CSU Vice Chancellor Gail Brooks. The union will be conducting its ratification vote within the next few weeks. Upon union ratification, the CSU will place the item before the Board of Trustees for ratification in March.
