Bargaining Contract Language to Build Strong Unions

Bargaining Contract Language to Build Strong Unions

AFT's maintains a database of affiliate contracts. This allows us to search for affiliate contract language on various topics. AFT's Research and Strategic Initiatives Department used the contract database to develop these helpful documents.

The first document is a PDF of a PowerPoint presentation ? Bargaining Contract Language to Build Strong Unions. From `access to worksites' to `union release time' this presentation lays out what we need in our contract language in order to support key union functions.

The second document, Strengthening Your Union Through Contract Language, provides the actual contract language. It is arranged by topic, and in each instance there are multiple examples of sample contract language. The excerpts come from contracts covering a range of AFT constituencies ? teachers, PSRPs, higher education, healthcare, and public employees ? in workplaces north, south, east, and west.

The documents are downloadable, but require a password. Email Richard Ford at rford@ (link sends e-mail) if you've lost your password and want access.
