MCCFA Employment Contract 1999-2001

ARTICLE 1
RECOGNITION

The Employer recognizes the Association as the exclusive representative for all instructors, counselors and librarians who meet the statutory definition of public employee as contained in BMS Case No. 83-PR-1219-A. (See Appendix A) and the MOU between MCCFA, UTCE, DOER and MnSCU dated August 14, 1995.

The term "faculty member" when used in this contract shall refer to all employees within the designated bargaining unit.

The Employer will not, during the life of this contract, meet and negotiate or meet and confer relative to terms and conditions of employment with any employee or group of employees who are covered by this contract, except through the Association.

If titles are created during the life of this contract, or if existing faculty positions are moved into the classified service or unclassified administrative service, the chancellor or designee shall give the association president or designee written notice at least fourteen (14) calendar days in advance of actual implementation. The parties will meet prior to implementation if the Association requests and will attempt to agree on the inclusion or exclusion of the new title or position. If the parties cannot agree, the question will be submitted to the director of the Bureau of Mediation Services for a determination of the inclusion or exclusion of such title.
