From Chairman Mike Bullock:
Since there is still some confusion about the amendment to freeze salaries that was passed at the Constitutional Convention, I will explain it further. The document that detailed the amendments is four pages with three columns. The first column has the current language, which was adopted in March 2006. The second column is the proposed change to the current language with the change being in bold and underlined and the current language that will be replaced crossed through, which is typical of contract changes. The third column is the result of the changes with the new language once again in bold. On the first page, Section 1, the first column’s language from 2006 on salaries provides a 3% increase in base salary effective March 2007 along with quarterly COLA increases. Going to page three, Section 3, in the first column you see the salaries for various positions as they were at the beginning of the 2006 agreement. For example, the President’s salary stood at $144,733 in 2006. On that same page the proposed change in the second column shows what the salaries for these positions are now – after the 3% raise and 16 COLA raises. As a result the President’s salary is now up to $153,248. And this is where the President’s salary will remain for the next four years: "Consistent with the bargaining between the UAW and the Staff Council of International Representatives, both the scheduled Lump Sum Payment and the Cost of Living provisions have been eliminated and the salaries shall therefore remainat the level set forth in Section 3, subject to bargaining as described in Section 13."
This applies to all International positions, along with new International Representatives starting at 70% and reaching full pay after 6 years. A vote against this amendment was a vote to continue the current language with a 3% raise and COLA increases. Copies of the amendment are available at the work center.
