APC and CSU Reach 2022-2024 Agreement

APC and CSU Reach 2022-2024 Agreement

Soon after we concluded our Salary Re-opener with CSU, and while our members were voting to ratify the agreement, the CSU approached us to engage in discussions regarding a further contract extension. These discussions occurred while the CSU was in the final phases of their negotiations with our sister union CSUEU for their agreement that begins July 1, 2022.

The APC Bargaining Team agreed to listen to the CSU proposal. The CSU proposed a two-year contract extension to cover 2022-2023 and 2023-2024. After discussion with the APC Statewide Council, we are pleased to announce that we have agreed to a further tentative extension to our contract that will now continue through June 30, 2024.

CSU Employee Minimum Wage Regulations

CSU Employee Minimum Wage Regulations

Here is an explanation of how the minimum wage effects an employee’s exempt or non-exempt status under the FLSA. Effective January 1, 2020, the Department of Labor issued regulations affecting the salary tests used to determine an employee’s exempt status under the FLSA. Under the updated regulations an employee, irrespective of time base, must earn more than two-times the Federal minimum wage.
