What We Want:
CFA’s Bargaining Proposals

What They Want:
Administration’s Bargaining Proposals


Salary
  • Close the CPEC Gap
  • Funded and guaranteed Service Step Increases
  • Additional Steps for those at the top of range and level
  • Deal with compression and inversion problems
  • Small General Salary Increases over the next three years that will not close the salary gap
  • Proposed salary increases dependent on student fee hikes
  • No funding for Service Step Increases unless taken from GSIs

Discretionary Pay
  • We already have a merit system, it is called retention, tenure and promotion
  • Each year about 30% of faculty eligible for presidential pay plan
  • Very limited opportunity to appeal award decision

Take Backs
  • FERP: Status quo five-years; it saves the CSU money and retains excellent faculty as they transition to full retirement
  • LECTURERS: Strengthen lecturers rights for re-appointment
  • SUMMER YRO: Full pay for teaching YRO
  • PRIVACY: No invasion of privacy of personal financial information
  • FACULTY RIGHTS: Retain our rights under law and in our contract
  • FERP: Reduce FERP program to two years
  • LECTURERS: Gut Contractual Job Security; Restrict 3-year contract rights
  • SUMMER YRO: Pay proposal is in flux; Restrict Preference-for-Work provisions
  • PRIVACY: Require annual disclosure of confidential financial information
  • FACULTY RIGHTS: Restrict faculty rights to take job actions
Faculty
Rights
  • No more “Justice Denied.” The administration has been essentially unresponsive to our concern about grievance backlog.
  • Want to limit our ability to grieve issues
Workload
  • Reduction in WTUs
  • Reduction in class size
  • Increase in tenure-track hiring
  • Concedes overwork but is not responsive to change
  • No reduction in WTUs
  • No reduction in class size
  • No increase in tenure-track positions
