Memoranda of Understanding (MOUs)

MOUs are agreements CPPW has made with the City that update or clarify parts of the contract. Many take effect immediately and stay in place until incorporated into the next contract.

Class Comp Committee

The Class Comp Committee (CCC) is a joint project created during CPPW’s first contract negotiations to redesign the entire classification system for CPPW members. Since 2025, CPPW members and Bureau of Human Resources staff have been working together to review consultant recommendations, revise draft class specifications, and build a clearer, more accurate structure for all classifications.

These recommendations will inform the wage system for the 2026 contract reopener. BHR makes the final determination on classifications, but CPPW members’ expertise and participation – reviewing drafts, attending focus groups, and responding to outreach – are what ensure the system reflects the real work we do.

Bargaining Proposals (Closed)

This section will reopen when we begin posting proposals for the 2026 contract reopener.

During bargaining cycles, CPPW shares the proposal packages exchanged at the table – including CPPW proposals, City proposals, and any tentative agreements. It helps members follow the bargaining process in real time.

Right now, there are no active proposals to share. This page will go live again once we enter the next bargaining phase.

Need help understanding the contract?

If you’re unsure how something in the contract applies – or you’re seeing something at work that doesn’t feel right – you don’t have to sort it out alone. Other CPPW members can help you talk it through and figure out next steps together.
