Initial and subsequent contracts that had been negotiated |
|
at 41 Illinois, Michigan, New Jersey, and New York |
|
community colleges between September 1966 and September |
|
1974 were analyzed to determine whether collective |
|
bargaining has been effective in gaining increased |
|
participation in decision-making and increased economic |
|
welfare. All of the colleges included in the study had |
|
negotiated at the institutional level, and had negotiated |
|
a minimum of three contracts with a faculty union. |
|
Contract provisions related to faculty welfare were |
|
divided into seven categories: compensation; insurance; |
|
professional and public service leaves; personal leaves; |
|
staff development; working conditions; and other faculty |
|
welfare provisions. Contract provisions related to |
|
institutional decision-making were divided into five |
|
categories: rights and responsibilities; workload; |
|
personnel policies; grievances; and institutional |
|
planning, research, and budgeting. Nine tables of data |
|
were examined to identify contractual trends or patterns |
|
of change. Findings support the conclusion that |
|
collective bargaining contracts are cumulative in nature. |
|
The duration of the contract periods tends to increase |
|
after negotiation of the initial contract, and the scope |
|
of the negotiations tends to broaden with additional |
|
contracts. (Author/NHM) |
