Costing Out the Labor Agreement
24 Attendees
Location
Palace: Salon VIII
Type Action Lab, Labor Relations
Speakers to be determined
Now more than ever, boards are faced with limited financial resources and, in some cases, unrealistic demands by unions. In order to develop your bargaining parameters and to counter the union's demands, the board must have a firm handle on its starting point in terms of all dollars, and how these dollars are distributed. This action lab will provide the necessary tools to calculate the cost of the existing salary guide, increments, employee health benefits, as well as how potential salary increases and proposed salary guides will affect district finances. The program illustrates how a "total compensation" approach can help districts maintain control over the total cost of any negotiated settlement. Please bring a calculator with you.
