Greetings,
Part-Time Lecturers should receive their salary
increases on time. The salary increases are set to go
into effect on September 1, 2009, and should go forward in
accordance with the Collective Agreement. The administration has
indicated that departments should go ahead with plans to hire
Part-Time Lecturers.
It is clear, without a union, PTL salary increases would not
have been protected. Be part of a winning team! Join today.
You are a representation fee payer but not yet a full
member of the union. Join the union that protected your salary
increase today. We will be even more effective in the
future when your membership is added in! Contact us if you
have any questions: 732-964-1000.

Specific
Details of Salary Increases in the PTL Collective
Agreement
Across-the-Board
Increases
Effective September 1 for the Fall
Semester 2009, PTLs will receive a 3.0% increase to their base
salary or the applicable minimum base salary rate, whichever is
higher.
Increases to the Minimum
Effective on September 1, 2009, the minimum base salary rate
will be $1410 per credit, except for courses involving "N"
credits in Academic Foundations in Newark and in the PALS
program. The hourly rate for instruction in the PALS
program will be $42.00 per hours for the Intensive and Evening
programs and $47.00 for the Corporate Program. For PTLs teaching
in Academic Foundations courses in Newark, the minimum will be
$1310 per class period.
In addition, another 3%
increase is scheduled for implementation in the Spring
2010 semester.
With the conclusion of
discussions related to the full-time faculty contract, full-time
faculty will be voting on a tentative settlement
that contains a delay in their salary increases, except
that Teaching Assistants and Graduate Assistants will not
have a delay.
We thank all the members
for their support during this difficult time,
including the full-time faculty chapter of the
Rutgers AAUP-AFT for solidarity that helped PTLs
defend the salary increases due to us under our contract.
Solidarity was essential in this
effort.
In Solidarity,
Mike
Slott
President, Rutgers PTLFC AAUP-AFT
