Summary of Detroit city employment terms 2012
Act 4 temporarily suspends the City's duty to bargain with its Unions during the period while the Financial Stability Agreement ("FSA") is in effect.
Most of the City's collective bargaining agreements expired on June 30, 2012, and the City notified the Unions that the agreements were not extended.
Annex D to the FSA contains terms and conditions that the City is required to apply to its employees.
The FAB approved of the labor terms and conditions at its meetings over the past 2 weeks – June 28 and July 12.
Work rule changes were approved by the FAB on June 28. Economics were approved on July 12.
The labor terms (called the "City Employment Terms" or "CET") apply to most of the City's Unions, whose contracts expired on June 30, 2012.
In accordance with the FSA, the Mayor submitted the CET satisfying Annex D to the FAB.
The FAB reviewed the CET, made comments, and approved.
The Mayor then submitted the CET to City Council.
The City Council declined to approve of the CET.
Therefore, under the FSA, the Administration is authorized to implement the CET.
That action was taken late on Tuesday, July 17, 2012.
