The University and the UC-AFT acknowledge that during the negotiations which
resulted in this MOU, each had the right and opportunity to make demands and
proposals with respect to any subject or matter not removed by law from the area of
collective bargaining, and the understandings and agreements arrived at by the
parties after the exercise of that right and opportunity are set forth in this MOU and
that this MOU constitutes the agreement arrived at by the parties.
The rights granted and the policies and procedures set forth in the Academic
Personnel Manual will no longer apply to NSFs, except as specifically set forth below
or elsewhere in this MOU.
The University and the UC-AFT agree that the applicable parts of the following
policies and procedures continue to apply to NSFs:
Only changes in the above policies and procedures applicable to NSFs will be
subject to notice and the meet and confer process. Implementation of any of these
proposed policies, procedures, rules or regulations, will not be delayed for other
employees by the failure of the parties to complete the meet and confer process or
the failure to reach agreement.
The University and the UC-AFT agree that the University may, during the life of this
MOU, establish and administer policies, procedures, rules and regulations. In the
event the University proposes the establishment of a policy, procedure, rule or
regulation that is systemwide in nature and has significant impact on the terms and
conditions of employment of NSFs, the University agrees to meet and confer upon
timely written request with the UC-AFT regarding the significant impacts on
members of the unit. Implementation of any of these proposed policies, procedures,
rules or regulations, will not be delayed for other employees by the failure of the
parties to complete the meet and confer process or the failure to reach agreement.
Except as otherwise provided for in this MOU, or upon mutual consent of the parties
to seek written amendment thereto, the University and the UC-AFT, for the life of this
MOU, each voluntarily and unqualifiedly waives the right, and each agrees that the
other shall not be obligated, to bargain collectively with respect to any subject or
matter referred to or covered in this MOU, or with respect to any subject or matter
not specifically referred to or covered by this MOU, even though such subject or
matter may not have been within the knowledge or contemplation of either or both of
the parties at the time they negotiated or signed this MOU.
