HOW MUCH OF A RAISE IS PEF ASKING FOR?
A base salary increase in every year of the contract is always a primary goal. PEF has received no base salary increase in four of the last eight years. Additionally, base salary increases have been delayed until October, rather than beginning in April. Traditional negotiation protocol is to not get married to any specific number prior to negotiations, as that number may be less than the other side is prepared to pay. HOW IS PEF DEVELOPING CONTRACT PROPOSALS? PEF has been actively collecting information for negotiations since last summer. Two surveys were distributed: one for PEF leaders and one for the general membership. In addition, 55 town meetings were held throughout the 12 PEF Regions. At these meetings, nearly 4000 PEF members shared their concerns with the Contract Team. Many members have also submitted written suggestions directly to the Team. Finally, we have also heard suggestions from PEF Staff, and we have drawn upon the resources of our two International Affiliates, SEIU
