Until contract approval, these records are generally confidential unless both the public agency and the bargaining unit agree to their release.
Collective bargaining agreements (CBAs) are available from the Office of Labor-Management Standards (OLMS) Online Public Disclosure Room.
We suggest you send a letter (perhaps certified mail) to your local requesting your contract. You may want to have a number of co-workers sign on to the letter.
Collective bargaining The process by which management and union representatives negotiate the employment conditions for a bargaining unit for a designated period of time. The parties have a mutual obligation to bargain in good faith in an effort to reach agreement with respect to wages, hours, and working conditions.
The Union Membership and Coverage Database, available at .unionstats, is an Internet data resource providing private and public sector labor union membership, coverage, and density estimates compiled from the monthly household Current Population Survey (CPS) using BLS methods.
Management Contract is an agreement made between the workers and the leadership of a company. It is binding and enforceable in court. These agreements protect the rights of both the employees and company.
Collective bargaining agreements are public record, even if not yet approved by the legislative authority of the political entity which is a party to the agreement.
