Current negotiations are reopeners for the 2023-2024 fiscal year which begins July
1, 2023.
CSEA members were previously given a 2% raise effective July 1, 2022 that was ratified
through a previous negotiation cycle.
At the November 2022 Board of Trustees meeting, the Board approved a 6.5% raise for
CTA (full-time faculty), supervisory/confidential, and administration. The same 6.5%
raise was negotiated with CWA (part-time faculty) and approved by the Board at the
October 2022 meeting. These raises were effective 7.1.2022 for CTA and CWA, and 11.1.2022
for the other two groups.
To align with the 6.5% increase given to other groups, the District has offered CSEA
a 4.5% increase to be effective January 1, 2023. This amount, in addition to the 2%
previously negotiated for the 2022-2023 fiscal year, would bring the increase to the
same 6.5% the Board approved for the other groups.
Although the current fiscal (2022-2023) year was previously closed to further negotiations
following the completion of that year’s negotiations cycle, an additional 4.5% has
been offered for the current fiscal year to be applied retroactively as noted in the
bullet point above.
In addition to the 4.5% raise, the only additional asks from the District at present
are:
Establishing a remote work policy to allow CSEA members to work remotely
Adjust the available dental and vision options for employees hired after July 1, 2023.
There are no other concessions being asked of any current CSEA member or other changes
to the contract being asked by the District.
The full CSEA contract will open for negotiations in the next negotiations cycle,
and CSEA can sunshine their items as early as July 1, 2023 but before December 1,
2023 as per section 18.2 of the collective bargaining agreement for the contract effective
date of July 1, 2024 - June 30, 2027, including negotiations regarding salary as well
as other contract language.
