TENTATIVE AGREEMENT - PSEA 22-23 05.25.2022.pdf
Summary: On May 25, 2022, the Perris Union High School District (PUHSD) and the Perris Secondary Educators Association (PSEA) reached a Tentative Agreement (TA) for the 2022-23 Reopener Negotiations.

The TA also includes adjustments to compensation, which had been previously negotiated. Specifically, at its January 19, 2022 meeting, the Board approved a tentative agreement between PSEA and the District that provided certificated employees with a 2% increase effective July 1, 2022. The agreement included contingency language stating, "The District and PSEA agree to reopen negotiations on compensation and benefits for 2022-23 if the Department of Finance statutory COLA with any augmentation or deficit as included in the final enacted state budget is greater than six and one-half percent (6.5%)." The Department of Finance's statutory COLA will be 6.56%, exceeding the agreed-upon threshold and triggering further negotiations. The major provisions of the TA include an ongoing six and fifty-six one-hundredths percent (6.56%) salary increase that will be applied to all salary schedules for all certificated employees effective July 1, 2022. This increase is in lieu of the previously agreed upon two percent (2%) salary increase.

Further details of this Agreement are included in the attached document.
Funding: The cost for this item is included in the 2023-23 budget and multi-year projections.
Recommendation: It is recommended that the Board of Trustees approve the Tentative Agreement between the Perris Union High School District and the Perris Secondary Educators Association regarding the 2022-23 reopeners.
