Bargaining Priorities
In light of the current financial crisis our state and college are facing, the District is asking that all labor groups including AFT 2121 make a collective sacrifice to prevent further program cuts and layoffs. We are fighting to ensure that any such sacrifice protects our members and our college.

Given the ever-changing nature of the District's proposal (wage freeze, then 10% cut), we are sending this updated survey for you to provide additional feedback and guidance to our bargaining team.

Below you’ll find a list of ideas members have suggested for our Union’s possible priorities (through membership meetings, emails, letters, survey, etc.). This is a comprehensive list of ideas from members, and therefore it contains ideas that may not be possible/reasonable as we negotiate concessions. We've broken them up into two categories -- short-term and long-term.

*If you can't submit your survey at the end, you may have checked too many boxes - please check only your top 3 choices for each question.

Top three short-term priorities - please choose the issues that you MOST want the Bargaining Team to advocate for during negotiations from this list of 21 ideas
These ideas relate to how potential concessions might be implemented, trigger language for how to restore cuts, and issues immediately affecting the Fall 2020 schedule.
1st priority
2nd priority
3rd priority
Commitment to restore the lost wages in the future
Commitment to restore lost wages with interest
Maintain retirement base pay/pension calculations
Unpaid furlough instead of pay cut (must work with state ed code rules about required days of instruction)
Retain step/column increases but accept larger temporary wage cut
Consideration for faculty whose pay or load has already been reduced (e.g. sabbatical)
Progressive pay cut (top paid get largest cut)
Exempt part-timers from wage concessions
If we get new revenue, the college will prioritize adding classes over 1200 FTEF
If we get new revenue, the college will reverse wage concessions
Wage concessions will only be implemented if other employee groups agree as well
No more class cuts, schedule reductions, or faculty layoffs - guaranteed 1200 FTEF
Abolish extra work requirements in Fall 2020, e.g., SLOs, Program Review
Smaller class minimums
Smaller class caps
No overload for FT where PT can teach
Hold harmless for future “enrollment management” if Fall 2020 classes are under-enrolled
Facilitate voluntary load reduction
Suspend non-repeatability clause
Compensation for extra work as a result of COVID (remote/Canvas accessibility)
College must not pad reserves above 5%
Other short-term suggestions (please indicate if one or more of these suggestions is a top 3 priority for you)
Top three long-term priorities - please choose the issues that you MOST want the Union to advocate for going forward from this list of 20 ideas
These ideas relate to longer term/broader issues, money savings or revenue generating for the college, and ideas that will cost the District more money. Some of these go beyond the traditional scope of our contract, and some would require planning or work outside of negotiations.
1st priority
2nd priority
3rd priority
Transparent budget/independent audit
Aggressive search for more funding
Better marketing
Improve registration process, especially in noncredit
Replace consultants and interim non-faculty admin with faculty
Part-time pathway to full-time (rules for this are state law)
Ability to teach outside Canvas (Zoom)
Free for faculty to take classes
Term limits for chairs (controlled by DCC contract; District can’t directly negotiate with AFT)
Faculty contract extension for 1-2 years (don’t negotiate this coming year after this summer. Instead, keep the contract we have in force.)
Eliminate CCSF police force
Administrators take layoffs and pay reductions at rates comparable to faculty sacrifice in recent years
Eliminate housing allowance for administrators
Child care for faculty
FT African American Studies faculty, expand AFAM class offerings
Lower workload for noncredit
More faculty trained to teach online (not just remote)
Lab pay equity
More faculty/department control over scheduling
Extend rehire rights for PT faculty beyond 4 semesters for break in service
Other long-term suggestions (please indicate if one or more of these suggestions is a top 3 priority for you)
