Article 1

The Trustees of the California State University recognize the Academic Professionals of California, the Union, as the sole and exclusive bargaining representative for bargaining Unit 4, as defined by PERB. As presently constituted, this includes the employees in classifications described in Appendix A of this Agreement.

The parties further agree that employees in classifications described in Appendix B of this Agreement and all other management, supervisory, and confidential employees as defined in the HEERA are excluded from the bargaining unit.

If the parties disagree as to the inclusion of a new classification in the bargaining unit, either party may seek a unit modification pursuant to the procedures established by the PERB.
