CONTRACT RATIFICATION SLOWDOWN (Please refer to the 2010-2013 Agreement until further notice)
After a flurry of conversations on Tuesday, May 19, 2015, UPM and the District agreed to pull from the Board agenda ratification of the MCCD/UPM Contract. While all other agreed upon Articles are uncontested, one part of Benefits has caused alarm. It was UPM's understanding that the "District shall pay the full cost of medical, dental, vision and disability insurance programs at the dollar amount set by the carrier for through 2016."(See sentence 1 below) The District's understanding of the same article, 4.1, however, rests on sentence 4: "The 2014/2015 district benefit contributions shall continue during through 2016 subject to change resulting from a negotiated agreement in reopeners."
In essence, the slowdown can be summarized like this: UPM felt we had reached an agreement in which the District would cover "the full cost"Â? of Benefits while the District felt it would be continuing contributions to Benefits at the 2014/1015 cap.
The ambiguous language in Article 4.1 has created a standstill that we have been working to resolve since its discovery. We have been meeting daily and will continue to meet until we find a solution. However, we wanted the membership to know the situation now in order to prepare for another ratification vote on the new, amended agreement.
We will keep you posted on all progress through the UPM Website.
ARTICLE 4: FRINGE BENEFITS
4.1 Permanent/Probationary Unit Members
The District shall pay the full cost of medical, dental, vision and disability insurance programs at the dollar amount set by the carrier for 2010/2011 and 2011/2012 through 2016. The District's maximum contribution for medical insurance coverage shall be the Kaiser Family Rate at the dollar amount set by the carrier for that year. The co-pay for all Kaiser and HealthNet non-Kaiser plans shall be $20 established by the carrier plans and shall be implemented within 60 calendar days following the ratification of the Tentative Agreement. The 2011-2012 2014/2015 district benefit contributions shall continue during 2012-2013 through 2016 subject to change resulting from a negotiated agreement in reopeners. Should the rate for any District medical insurance program exceed the Kaiser Family Rate, the unit member will have deducted from his/her paycheck the difference between the Kaiser Family Rate and the rate for the medical insurance program in which the unit member is enrolled (except as provided for in 4.1.2).
