The UW s CEGP criteria says employees who have been at the top step for at least a year may qualify when their skills development or assumption of higher level duties results in service enhancements or efficiencies for their departments. Then let the Union office know the results. In conjunction with this program, the contract now allows departments to move classified staff up the pay scale faster, so that salaries for current employees can compete with those of staff who were newly hired high on the step scale. No other classified staff have these opportunities. Step by step the longest march can be won.

A number of PERC members, like Stephanie Morgan, have taken up the cause and talked to WPRB folks about the benefits of being under a more comprehensive union contract. Stephanie is a steward for CSA and well versed in carrying the message to the uninitiated.
