Oct 15 Bargaining Update

On October 14, 2024, CPPW Bargaining Team met with the City and exchanged the following proposals:

  • Holiday: CPPW Counter Proposal focused on allowing up to 5 flexible holidays. This would allow members to use some of your holiday hours for days that are culturally appropriate for you. Also prioritized securing fair compensation for members who are required to work on holidays.
  • Performance Incentive Leave: CPPW Counter Proposal creates a system for receiving additional hours of leave based on your job performance. This is not management leave, but is up to 80 hours of additional leave based on a clear and equitable system.

  • Recognition: City Counter Proposal. They agreed that when represented classifications change but are substantially the same job duties, those positions would remain in CPPW membership.
  • Union security: City Counter Proposal. City agreed to pay the union for dues that they fail to deduct. City decreased the amount of paid time for union work from 1800 hours to 800 hours. These are the hours that we can use to do the work of representing you while not losing pay.
