Program Enhancements and Other Budget Adjustments
State Employee Compensation
Of the twenty-one collective bargaining units that represent state employees, twenty have negotiated new contracts. Of the twenty new contracts, one expires on June 30, 2007, seventeen expire on June 30, 2008, one expires on July 2, 2008, and one expires on July 2, 2010. The Corrections Bargaining Unit is the only bargaining unit without a contract. The Department of Personnel Administration is continuing to negotiate with the exclusive representative, California Correctional Peace Officers Association, and will be negotiating in the spring for the contract that expires on June 30, 2007. When a contract expires, the terms of that contract remain in effect.
The state anticipates spending $447.4 million in 2007-08 for employee compensation increases in the current contracts and for employees excluded from collective bargaining (managers, supervisors, and confidential employees). In addition to the ongoing costs associated with salary and benefit increases effective in 2006-07, the majority of the new contracts provide for a 2-to 4-percent cost-of-living adjustment for 2007-08. The budget assumes this adjustment will be 3.3 percent based on current estimates.
