Agreement 
between Michigan State University and the
Clerical-Technical Union of Michigan State University,
April 1, 2007 - March 31, 2011  

Health care/wages agreement negotiated through the Coalition of Labor Organizations at MSU
(Note: the information below covers  the January 1, 2006 through December 31, 2009 MSU/Coalition Health Care Agreement.)

In December 2005, the members in the individual unions in the Coalition of Labor Organizations at MSU (except GEU) ratified a compensation package that tied wage increases to increases in the costs of health care.   The agreement lasts from January 1, 2006 until December 31, 2009.  Each of the nine Coalition unions affected by our agreement has a different contract cycle and each will get this raise at a different time.  

For CTs, the agreement determines our general wage increases from April 2007 through April 2010. CTs will receive a 2.75% general increase in April 2008.  Because general wage increases are tied to increases in health care costs, raises in subsequent years will be determined as each year's health care costs are tallied. 

Under the agreement, CTs received a 1.25% general increase in April 2007.

We are guaranteed a fully funded health care program throughout the life of the agreement. 

(This agreement extends key concepts developed in the previous contract between the Coalition and the University [1/1/02-12/31/05]. Under the previous contract we received a 2% general salary increase in 2006, 3% in April 2005, 2% in April 2004, and 1.75% in April 2003.)

(CTs who have not reached the maximum of their pay grades will continue to receive an additional wage progression of 3% per year.)

Current pay ranges can be seen on the Human Resources web site.

Wage increases through April 1, 2010 are based on the following schedule:
