As in previous years, the Bureau of Labor Statistics
has assembled a variety of information on anticipated
union contract adjustments in 1981. Identified by com­

expire, deferred wage increases come due, escalator
clauses are reviewed, and contracts are reopened.
This bulletin combines articles that appeared in the
December 1980 and January 1981 issues of th q Monthly
Labor Review (with minor revisions), information from
the Bureau’s file of major agreements (those covering
1,000 workers or more) expiring in 1981, and, additional
information on bargaining situations compiled from
published sources. Together, the data represent virtually
all major agreements scheduled to expire in 1981.
Tables 1 through 8 summarize data on contract ex­
pirations, reopeners, and deferred wage increases by in­
dustry, month, and other variables. Tables 9 through 12

Collective Bargaining in 1981

Following 2 years of relatively heavy bargaining ac­
tivity, collective bargaining in 1981 will be light. About
2.6 million workers are covered by major agreements
expiring or reopening in 1981, compared with approxi­
mately 3.7 million in both 1979 and 1980.1 Except for
the airline industry, which has negotiations scheduled
throughout the year, most of the talks will occur before
midsummer. Contracts in the railroad and coal indus­
tries expire in March; contracts in the maritime indus­
try expire in June; and those in the postal and West
Coast longshore industries, in July.
We do not know, of course, what economic condi­
tions will exist at the time of the negotiations. But, as
Ihe Nation entered the fourth quarter of 1980, some in­
dicators, such as gross national product, housing starts,
and industrial production rebounded after declining in
the first half of 1980.2The third quarter saw an increase
in retail sales and a recovery in durable goods orders.
Interest rates, although dropping from recent record
levels, have remained high. Employment has remained
relatively stable since the first of the year, but the un­
employment rate rose to 7.7 percent by midyear (from
6.2 percent in January), and remained at about that rate
until it inched down to 7.6 percent in August, and to
7.5 percent in September. Double-digit inflation contin­
ued through the first half of 1980. However, in the third
quarter, the Consumer Price Index, which had risen at
an 18.7-percent annual rate in the first quarter, slowed
to a 7.0-percent rate.
The recent high rate of inflation may cause negotia­
tors to focus on cost-of-living adjustment ( c o l a ) claus­
es as a means of helping workers recoup lost purchasing
power.3 About 42 percent of the workers under major
agreements that either expire or are subject to reopen­
ing in 1981 have COLA protection. In recent years, there
has not been a substantial increase in the prevalence of
COLA provisions in major agreements, but there has
been a tendency to liberalize existing formulas.4 Major
contracts with COLA clauses have tended to provide for
a larger total wage increase, as can be seen from the fol­
lowing tabulation, which shows the average annual
wage change (in percent) of the expiring contracts:5

Railroads

Contracts expire on March 31, 1981, for 400,000 em­
ployees of the Nation’s class 1 railroads (rail carriers
with operating revenues of more than $50 million a
year). Proposals for changes in the agreements will be
exchanged no earlier than January 1. Representatives of
13 railroad unions will conduct coordinated bargaining
sessions with the National Railway Labor Conference,
the bargaining agent for most of the rail carriers. Three
organizations represent a majority of the workers— the
United Transportation Union; Brotherhood of Mainte­
nance of Way Employes; and the Brotherhood of Rail­
way, Airline and Steamship Clerks, Freight Handlers,
Express and Station Employees.6
The movement towards coordinated bargaining with
common expiration dates began in 1973, when all of the
major unions agreed to negotiate as a group with the
conference. The parties are limited to negotiating on
wages, cost-of-living adjustments, and health and wel­
fare benefits. Issues specific to individual unions are
considered in separate negotiations between each union
and the conference.
In 1978, for the first time since it was formed in
1963, the conference did not represent all class 1 rail­
roads, as Conrail and several bankrupt railroads bar­
gained on their own.7 It is possible that one or more of
the major rail carriers will not be represented by the
conference in 1981.
The last round of rail negotiations began in July 1977
and continued into the summer of 1979. The 39-month
agreements, consummated by the various unions, gener­
ally provided for straight wage increases of 14 percent
over the life of the contract;8 two cost-of-living adjust­
ments payable under the expired contracts; semiannual
cost-of-living reviews, providing up to an 8-percent in­
crease per year; improved vacation, medical, and dental
benefits; and some changes in work rules intended to
cut labor costs. The parties also agreed to refer the is­
sue of the size of crews to local negotiations.
The 1978 round of bargaining was conducted without
a work stoppage. Only one emergency board was
established, as specified in the Railway Labor Act, to
hear the dispute between the conference and the Train
Dispatchers.9 The board mediated a settlement within
the required 30 days, the first such mediated agreement
in a national railroad case.
Information on 1981 union demands is not now
available. However, negotiations will undoubtedly be in-

mance and the recent deregulation, which has spurred
merger proposals and increased competition among the
major rail carriers.

Bituminous coal

The contract between the United Mine Workers of
America ( u m w , Ind.) and the Bituminous Coal Opera­
tors Association ( b c o a ), covering about 125,000 min­
ers, mostly in the Appalachian region, expires March
26. Settlement terms for bituminous coal miners tradi­
tionally set the pattern for other agreements covering
coal mine construction workers (14,000), western sur­
face miners (12,000), and anthracite coal miners (2,000).
Before the discovery of vast western petroleum and
natural gas fields, coal had been the primary energy
source in the United States. After a long decline, annual
coal production has risen steadily since 1961, spurred in
recent years by soaring oil prices and intermittent short­
ages. However, a rapidly increasing proportion of coal
production is coming from new western surface fields
where the UMW is weak. During much of the 1970’s, the
Appalachian deep mines, where the union has its princi­
pal strength, have been plagued by overproduction and
unemployment.
The 90 year-old UMW has been ridden by internal dis­
sent, financial problems,10 and competition of other
unions for the miners in the prosperous western fields.11
During the 1980’s, however, continued oil price rises are
likely to accelerate the demand for coal, and may help
provide jobs for 20,000 UMW members now unem­
ployed.12
The expiration of the UMW-BCOA agreement in De­
cember 1977 marked the start of a bitter 111-day strike.
The first agreement, negotiated by UMW President
Arnold Miller, was rejected by the union’s bargaining
council; a second agreement was rejected by the mem­
bership. In an attempt to get the miners back to work,
President Jimmy Carter invoked the emergency dispute
procedures of the Taft-Hartley Act, explaining that “at
least a million more Americans will be unemployed if
the walkout continues.” 13
A settlement, reached March 14, 1978, terminated
the automatic cost-of-living adjustments but provided
for an immediate $l-per-hour pay increase and addi­
tional 70-cent increases in 1979 and 1980. The miners
also received increased shift differentials, additional va­
cation time, an improved health benefit program for
employees and retirees, and an improved retirement
plan. The coal operators were allowed to introduce pro­
duction incentive plans, if approved by a majority of
the union members at individual mines.14
Strikes have been a chronic problem in the coal min­
ing industry; the last five rounds of national negotia­
tions have been marked by walkouts. Such strikes can
idle workers in other industries, particularly those in

1Eleven agreements covering 23,000 workers are excluded because they have no fixed
expiration or reopening date.
2These include 55 major agreements, covering 178,000 workers, which are due to expire
between November 1 and December 31, 1980; and 273 agreements, covering 637,000
workers, which expired prior to November 1, but for which necessary information had not
been fully gathered.

railroads and primary metals. Local and regional dis­
putes, usually over noneconomic issues such as safety
and mine administration, and often unauthorized by the
UMW national leadership, occur more frequently in coal
mining than in other industries. However, since the
1978 settlement, the incidence of “wildcat” strikes has
declined by 90 percent, even though the BCOA did not
secure the right to discipline the leaders of unauthorized
strikes; hence, such walkouts may not be a major issue
in the 1981 negotiations.
According to UMW sources, major union demands in
1981 include a substantial wage increase, an “uncap­
ped” escalator clause, greater shift differentials and a
shorter work week. The union is likely to seek addition2

The postal talks are scheduled to start in early 1981
and are anticipated to be difficult. It has been men­
tioned that the unions will abandon coalition bar­
gaining, meaning that Postal Service management will
have to conduct separate negotiations with each nation­
al union. Management, under pressure to cut labor
costs, may seek to roll back union gains won in previ­
ous rounds, particularly the “uncapped” COLA clause,
and the “worklife” protection of employees from layoff.
The unions almost certainly will resist such efforts, and
additionally, may seek new gains, such as greater safety
protection for employees working with automated mail
processing equipment. Although strikes against the Fed­
eral Government carry stiff penalties, such action is
possible. Delegates to recent Letter Carriers’ and Postal
Workers’ conventions adopted “no contract, no work”
mandates, and the Postal Workers’ union has a new
president, Morris Biller, who, reportedly, is more mili­
tant than his predecessor, Emmet Andrews.

al safety measures (including full-time safety inspectors
and nurses at each mine, and the right to stop work
over unsafe conditions), an expedited arbitration proce­
dure similar to that used in the primary metals indus­
try, and placement of arbitrators under contract which
would help to avoid delays and fee raising.
UMW President Sam Church has expressed optimism
that negotiations will be peacefully concluded. Talks be­
gan in mid-September, although serious bargaining is
not expected until early next year.
Postal Service

A national agreement covering 570,000 employees of
the U.S. Postal Service is up for renewal July 20. Nego­
tiating unions include the American Postal Workers
Union, the National Association of Letter Carriers, the
Mail Handlers’ division of the Laborers’ International
Union of North America, and the National Rural Let­
ter Carriers Association (Ind.).
Postal unions were primarily lobbying organizations
until they gained some bargaining rights in the 1960’s,
but most economic and job security issues were decided
by the Congress. Employee dissatisfaction led to a post­
al strike in 1970, followed by passage of the Postal Re­
organization Act of 1970.15 The act established the
Postal Service as an independent agency, and authorized
collective bargaining similar to that in private industry.
Unions representing the majority of postal workers set
up a coordinated bargaining committee to negotiate
with postal officials.
Bargaining experience since 1970 has varied. The
1971 talks lasted 6 months and were marked by acrimo­
ny, deadlocks, and factfinding intervention. Negotia­
tions in 1973 went fairly smooth, but the 1975 settle­
ment required mediation, and 1978 negotiations were
submitted to arbitration. Negotiations at the national
level have been aggravated by intermittent postal bud­
get deficits; declining employment resulting from auto­
mation and private competition; the differing impact of
inflation and automation on local postal facilities; and
varying interpretations of the agreements at the local
level.
The initial agreement of the 1978 negotiations was
ratified by the National Rural Letter Carriers but re­
jected by members of the other three unions. Further
bargaining was unsuccessful, and an arbitrator decided
the terms in dispute, awarding the workers an annual
pay increase of $500, a 3-percent increase after 1 year,
and $500 after 2 years; an “uncapped” escalator clause;
and continuation of the job security clause, introduced in
1971. (The wage terms were similar to those awarded
members of the National Rural Letter Carriers.) The ar­
bitrator ruled that regular employees on payroll as of
September 1, 1978, were protected from layoff “during
their worklife” and that employees hired later would gain
the same protection after 6 years of qualifying service.




West Coast longshoring

On July 1, 1981, the 3-year agreement between the
International Longshoremen’s and Warehousemen’s
Union (Ind.) and the Pacific Maritime Association is
due to expire. Although the agreement covers only
about 11,500 workers, it involves virtually all firms en­
gaged in longshoring operations at West Coast ports.
Interruption of such operations can quickly affect ship­
ping, trucking, railroads, and eventually can spread to
other industries.
Until the 1950’s (except during World War II), West
Coast dock negotiations usually were marked by im­
passes and strikes, and at times by violence.16 With the
advent of the Pacific Maritime Association in 1949, la­
bor-management relations gradually improved. The
Mechanization and Modernization Agreement of 1959,
which allowed companies to introduce labor-saving
technology to the docks in exchange for guarantees of
employee income, is considered a major innovation in
labor relations. However, the only significant coastwide
strike since the 1940’s centered on a labor-saving tech­
nology— cargo containerization. The walkout began
July 1, 1971, and ended February 21, 1972, although it
was temporarily halted by a Taft-Hartley injunction
and by an agreement to resume work for a limited peri­
od. Workers at Eastern and Gulf Coast ports joined in
the strike, making it the first nationwide longshore
strike in U.S. history.
The terms of the 1978 settlement provided for an
85-cent-per-hour increase in each of the 3 years, greater
skill differentials, added holidays, a sixth week of vaca­
tion at 25 years of service, and improved medical, life
insurance, and retirement benefits. The association
agreed to the concept of seniority in the selection of
“steady men” (highly-skilled employees who work al­
most exclusively for a single employer), as well as a fair

1Eleven agreements covering 23,000 workers are excluded because they have no fixed ex­
piration or reopening date.
2These include 55 major agreements, covering 178,000 workers, which are due to expire be­

cers. On the East and Gulf Coasts, two rival unions—
the National Maritime Union and the Atlantic, Gulf,
Lakes and Inland Waters District of the Seafarers’ In­
ternational Union— represent deck, engine, and steward
department seamen. On the Great Lakes, these two ri­
val unions negotiate for most of the unlicensed seamen.
On the West Coast, unlicensed seamen in deck, engine
and steward departments are represented by the Pacific
District of the Seafarers’ International Union.



Sept. 15: $11 per week

Several associations negotiate with the unions,
depending on geographic area. On the East and Gulf
Coasts, two committees conduct negotiations. The
Maritime Service Committee bargains for subsidized
passenger and dry cargo ship operators, and the Tanker
Service Committee bargains for tanker companies. Both
committees negotiate with the National Maritime Union
and all of the East Coast licensed officers’ organiza­
tions. Shipping operators who are not eligible for Gov8

ernment subsidies are represented by the American
Maritime Association. This association negotiates with
the Seafarers’ International Union and the unions of li­
censed officers. The two committees and the association
are not empowered to bind its members to the terms of
the contract; instead, each operator member concurring
in the agreement signs an individual contract with the
unions. If a member disagrees with the terms, it negoti­
ates its own pact with the union involved.
On the West Coast, the Pacific Maritime Association,
which represents many steamship companies, negotiates
with the Seafarers’ International Union and the West
Coast licensed officers’ unions. The tanker companies,
which do not belong to the association, bargain sepa­
rately with the West Coast unions. In addition, several
large companies, such as Exxon Corp. and Mobil Oil,
conduct separate negotiations with independent labor
associations.
Despite heavy subsidies enjoyed by some U.S. com­
panies engaged in foreign trade, the U.S. merchant ma­
rine has suffered a marked decline since World War II
and presently accounts for only a small percentage of
the vessels engaged in U.S. foreign trade. Employment
in the industry has suffered from competition from for­
eign vessels, alternative modes of transportation, auto­
mation, and containerization of cargo. Efforts to
revitalize the industry, particularly a dwindling fleet, are
being made under the Omnibus Maritime Bill, which
would set a goal for the 1980’s of transporting 50 per­
cent of this country’s exports and imports in U.S. ships.
The bill is now pending in the Congress.
Unions have not yet announced 1981 demands. Im­
portant items of discussion are likely to be wages, im­
proved vacation and health and medical benefits, and
retiree protection against inflation.

pilots, and flight attendants will be heavily involved in
1981 negotiations. The Air Line Pilots Association will
bargain throughout the year for 21,000 pilots at Braniff,
Continental, Delta, Eastern, Trans World, United, and
Western. The Allied Pilots Associations’s (Ind.) con­
tract at American, covering 3,300 pilots, expires No­
vember 1.
Contrary to other airline unions, the International
Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (Ma­
chinists), which bargains for most of the industry’s
unionized ground service employees, has a common
contract expiration date with several of the larger carri­
ers. Contracts covering approximately 52,000 mechanics
and related employees represented by the Machinists
will terminate at Braniff, Northwest, Trans World, and
United on November 1, and at Eastern on December
31.18The only other mechanic unit bargaining in 1981 is
at Western, where the International Brotherhood of
Teamsters, Chauffeurs, Warehousemen and Helpers of
America (Teamsters, Ind.) will negotiate for 1,800 me­
chanics, whose contract expires January 1.
Unlike the pilots and mechanics, the flight attendants
are represented by various labor organizations. North­
west’s contract covering 2,200 members of the Team­
sters union terminates on January 1. The Independent
Union of Flight Attendants’ contract for 5,200 employ­
ees at Pan American comes up for renewal on May 1.
The 5,600-member International Federation of Flight
Attendants’ contract at Trans World terminates on Au­
gust 1, and the Association of Flight Attendants, an af­
filiate of the Air Line Pilots Association, will rene­
gotiate for 2,000 employees at Braniff in January.
Unlike the last major round of negotiations, bar­
gaining in 1981 will take place in a more uncertain
economic environment, as the industry is experiencing
the competitive effects of deregulation and sagging prof­
its, and layoffs as a result of mergers and a sluggish
economy. The unions’ bargaining goals are still being
formulated, but it is likely that the mechanics units will
concentrate on job protection, wage issues, and im­
provements in pension benefits and cost-of-living adjust­
ments. Notwithstanding potential money demands, the
crew size issue should be a major one for the pilots,
with the impending introduction of the new B-757 and
B-767 aircraft. If history repeats itself, flight attendant
groups will probably propose numerous changes involv­
ing all major contract provisions.

Airlines

Contracts held by unions representing employees of
trunk line carriers will be up for renewal throughout
1981.17The large number of contracts reflects the collec­
tive bargaining structure in the industry. Like the rail­
roads, the airlines’ collective bargaining relations are
governed by the Railway Labor Act. Unlike the rail­
roads, each carrier generally bargains separately with
each craft. Most airline workers are organized on a
craft basis, with each craft represented in a separate
bargaining unit and, frequently, by a different union.
Of the various crafts or classes, only the mechanics,

Scheduled Wage Increases and
Cost-of-Living Provisions in 1981

Nearly all workers under major collective bargaining
agreements (those covering 1,000 workers or more) in
the private nonfarm sector receive some wage increase
each year. During 1981, there will be 2.6 million work­
ers covered by expiring agreements or contracts with
wage reopening provisions; 6.1 million are scheduled to
receive “deferred” wage increases from contracts negoti­
ated in earlier years; and 4.5 million workers under ex­
piring and continuing agreements, with or without
deferred increases, may anticipate wage adjustments
from cost-of-living clauses. About 162,000 workers are
covered by contracts that extend through 1981 and do
not provide for any wage increase.
An earlier article presented information on the gener­
al characteristics of groups that will be bargaining this
year; thus, the following discussion will focus primarily
on deferred wage increases and cost-of-living adjust­
ments ( c o l a ) provided by the major agreements. The
analysis excludes 818,000 workers whose contracts ex­
pired late in 1980 but had not been renegotiated by No­
vember 1, or for whom data were not otherwise
available at this writing.19

end of the year. Of the 2.6 million workers under con­
tracts scheduled to expire or reopen in 1981, 260,000
are to receive deferred increases, averaging 5.6 percent.
Of these, about 49,000 workers may also receive COLA
payments, which will be discussed in detail in a later
section, along with their deferred wage increases.
Among workers under contracts that run past 1981,
3.7 million will receive deferred increases averaging 3.4
percent and may also have COLA adjustments during
the year; 2.2 million are to receive only deferred wage
payments, averaging 8.3 percent; 46,350 workers may
receive only COLA adjustments; and 162,000 workers
are not scheduled for either COLA payments or deferred
increases.
The 5.2-percent deferred wage increase amounts to an
average 52.4 cents per hour. The highest increases, in
both cents-per-hour and percentage terms, are in the
construction industry, affecting about 870,000 workers:
scheduled deferred wage increases average 9.7 percent
or $1.24 per hour in 1981.20The metalworking industry,
on the other hand, has negotiated increases averaging
3.1 percent, or 30.7 cents, for 2.0 million workers this
year. (See table 4.) Much of the difference between these
two industries is attributable to the greater prevalence
of COLA adjustments as supplements to deferred in­
creases in the metalworking industry.
Table 5 illustrates this difference in cost-of-living cov­
erage for the two groups. Eleven percent of workers
under major construction contracts have COLA
protection compared with 93 percent in the metalwork­
ing industry. Deferred increases in construction con­
tracts with cost-of-living clauses (covering 98,000
workers) average 7.8 percent, compared with 10 percent
for the 778,000 workers under contracts without COLA
clauses. For the 108,000 workers covered by metalwork­
ing agreements without COLA provisions, the average
deferred increase is 6.4 percent, compared with 2.9 per­
cent for the 1.9 million workers with such clauses.
As in past years, the nonmanufacturing sector as a
whole has higher deferred increases, in both cents-perhour and percentage terms, than the manufacturing sec­
tor— 6.2 percent (70.0 cents), compared with 4.2 per­
cent (35.5 cents). Again, some of this difference may
reflect expectations of increases resulting from COLA
clauses. Of the 3.1 million workers in the manufacturing
sector with deferred increases scheduled in 1981, 2.3

Deferred wage increases

Multi-year collective bargaining agreements common­
ly provide for scheduled wage increases in each year of
the contract. Deferred wage increases refer to changes
that are implemented in the current year but were nego­
tiated in prior years.
The average size of deferred wage increases has been
about the same for the last few years— 5.1 percent in
1978 and 1979, and 5.2 percent in 1980 and 1981. Re­
flecting the 3-year bargaining cycle characteristic of ma­
jor agreements, larger numbers of workers were to re­
ceive deferred increases in 1978 and 1981 (6.7 million
and 6.1 million workers, respectively) than in the 2 in­
tervening years (5.2 million in 1979, and 5.0 million in
1980). Half of the workers (3.1 million) receiving such
increases in 1981 are under agreements negotiated in
1980, 47 percent (2.8 million) are under contracts nego­
tiated in 1979, and the remainder are covered by agree­
ments reached before 1979.
Contract expirations similarly reflect the 3-year cycle.
Bargaining in 1978 covered 2.5 million workers; negoti­
ations in 1979 involved 3.5 million workers; and those
in 1980 are expected to affect close to 4 million by the




10

million have COLA provisions in their contracts, with
deferred increases averaging 3.3 percent, compared with
7 percent for those without COLA protection. In the
nonmanufacturing sector, 3 million workers are sched­
uled for deferred increases. The 1.5 million with COLA
clauses in their contracts will average gains of 4.0 per­
cent, while those without will average 8.7 percent.
Deferred wage increases in 1981 for the combined
transportation and communication industries average
3.7 percent (44.8 cents), and cover nearly 1.4 million
workers. Mean increases of 6.4 percent (37.3 cents) are
scheduled for 455,000 workers in the apparel industry,
while 432,000 workers in trade will receive average

wage gains of 6.3 percent (48.7 cents) during the year.
Table 6 shows concentrations of workers receiving de­
ferred payments by month during 1981. A large portion
of the 712,000 workers with increases due in April are
under the Teamsters’ Master Freight agreement. Some
585,000 construction industry workers receive increases
during May, June, and July, and 262,000 workers in the
apparel industry are scheduled for payments in June.
The two heaviest months are August and September
when 1.2 and 1.1 million workers, respectively, receive
increases. Workers in the steel and telephone industries
account for 80 percent of those scheduled for increases
in August, while auto industry agreements provide wage

increases for 772,000 workers in September.
For contracts with 5,000 workers or more, the 1981
average increase in the cost of both deferred wages and
benefits is 5.5 percent, compared with the 1980 average
of 5.3 percent and the 1979 average of 4.7 percent. (See
table 7.)
Cost-of-living adjustments

Fifty-seven percent of workers covered by major
agreements have cost-of-living protection. COLA clauses
are designed to help workers recover purchasing power
lost through price increases. The number of workers re­
ceiving COLA increases and the proportion of purchas­
ing power actually recovered under individual bar­
gaining agreements depends on the specific formula
used to relate wage and price increases, the timing of
Table 5.

COLA r e v ie w s, a n d p o s s ib le “ c a p s ” lim itin g th e a m o u n t
o f COLA p a y m e n ts .

While deferred wage changes affect the largest por­
tion of workers, cost-of-living increases may be larger
than deferred increases in 1981. If inflation continues as
it did during 1979 and in 1980, COLA payments are like­
ly to have a significant impact on the total wage chang­
es occurring during the year. More than four-fifths of
workers with COLA clauses will have at least one review
during 1981.21 (See table 8.)
The number of workers affected by COLA clauses has
been decreasing since 1977 because the number of
workers covered by major agreements has declined, but
the proportion under contracts having this protection
has remained fairly constant. The following tabulation
shows the number of workers (in millions) under cost-

workers in the auto industry presently have their COLA
payments adjusted at this rate, but this formula will be
changed to 1 cent for each 0.26-point rise in the third
contract year. COLA clauses in rubber industry contracts
provide 1 cent for each 0.26-point increase in the CPI be­
ginning in 1981, the second year of the agreements. The
Bell System operating companies and manufacturing
firms that follow their contract pattern specify changes
of 55 cents a week plus 0.65 percent of each employee’s
weekly rate for each 1-percent movement in the CPI. This
method applies to 721,000 workers.

Timing, “caps, ” and indexes. The timing of reviews also
affects the average rate of return from COLA clauses for
a given period. Quarterly reviews are the most common;
they cover 2.1 million workers, including those in the
steel and automobile industries. Annual reviews affect
1.7 million workers, most notably in communications—
Bell System agreements provide for reviews in August
of the second and third contract years. Semiannual re­
views cover nearly 1.4 million workers, including more
than 400,000 workers each in the railroad and trucking
industries. In both of these industries, the frequency of
review was changed from annual to semiannual when
the current contracts were negotiated.
“Caps,” or maximum limits, may also affect the
amounts that may be received from COLA clauses.
Slightly more than 1.2 million workers have such caps
in their contracts. The largest single group— 431,000
workers in the railroad industry— may receive a maxi­
mum 8-percent adjustment during the year.
In addition, the amounts generated are affected by
the price index used in the COLA formula. Contracts
covering nearly 80 percent of the workers under COLA
provisions use the BLS Consumer Price Index, U.S. “all
cities” average. About 340,000 workers are under con­
tracts with COLA clauses using individual city indexes.

102

1This total is smaller than the sum of individual items because 489,600 workers will re­
ceive more than one increase. This total is based on data available as of Nov. 1,1980, and
thus may understate the number of workers receiving deferred increases for the entire year.

Many of the workers covered by cost-of-living provi­
sions are members of large unions. The Auto Workers
represent the largest number of workers (1,092,000) un­
der major agreements with cost-of-living provisions.
Other important unions providing COLA protection are:
the Communications Workers (600,000), the Teamsters
(533,000), the Steelworkers (498,000), and the Machin­
ists (314,000). These five organizations account for 57
percent of workers under major agreements with COLA
clauses. Remaining unions each represent fewer than
2 0 0 ,0 0 0 workers with c o l a provisions.

Table 7. Workers receiving deferred wage and benefit
increases in 1981 in bargaining units covering 5,000
workers or more, by size of increase

Adjustment formula. The rate of inflation is only one of
several factors that control the size of cost-of-living ad­
justments. Rates of adjustments, caps, and indexes used
also affect how well the formula protects workers’ pur­
chasing power. In 1979, COLA clauses returned about
half the lost purchasing power caused by the 13.4-percent price rise that year. Through the first three quar­
ters of 1980, COLA adjustments returned about twothirds of the loss.
Probably the most obvious determinant of COLA
payouts is the rate of adjustment used in various con­
tracts. The most common rate is 1 cent per hour for each
0.3-point rise in the CPI. This provision covers 2 million
workers. Members of the Steel Industry Coordinating
Committee23 and companies which follow the steel con­
tract pattern use this formula. In addition, 821,000

These include 125,000 workers covered by agreements
using the Los Angeles-Long Beach Index, primarily
those with the Food Employers Council in Southern
California. Automobile industry contracts, covering
821,000 workers, use a combination of the U.S. and Ca­
nadian indexes because bargaining units in both
countries are involved.
Minimums or “guaranteed COLA” payments also af­
fect the amount of money generated by clauses because

they provide a “floor” for payments. For purposes of
this analysis, these minimum payments are not treated
as COLA increases because they do not depend upon CPI
movements; however, they are included in the tabula­
tions of negotiated wage changes. More than 300,000
workers have guaranteed minimums in their contracts,
and about 172,000 workers are under contracts with
both minimums and caps on the COLA amounts that
may be paid.

FOOTNOTES
1Major agreements are those that cover 1,000 workers or more.
The Postal Service is not included in the 2.6 million workers covered
by major expiring contracts.
2The economy entered a recession in January 1980; some econo­
mists have argued that this downturn ended in July or August.
3For more detailed information about escalators offsetting inflation,
see, Victor Sheifer, “Cost-of-living adjustment: keeping up with infla­
tion?” Monthly Labor Review, June 1979, pp. 14-17.
4 For an analysis of how 1979 contracts compared with prior con­
tracts see Edward J. Wasilewski, “Inflation again outpaces wage and
package gains in 1979,” Current Wage Developments, July 1980, pp.
4 1 -60.
5Data are through October 1980. Thus, additional co la amounts
may be added until the contracts expire in 1981.
6The 10 other unions participating in the negotiations are the
American Train Dispatchers Association; Brotherhood of Locomotive
Engineers (Ind.); International Association of Machinists and Aero­
space Workers; Railroad Yardmasters of America; Sheet Metal Work­
ers International Association; Brotherhood of Railroad Signalmen;
International Brotherhood of Firemen and Oilers; International
Brotherhood of Electrical Workers; Brotherhood of Railway Carmen
of the United States and Canada; and International Brotherhood of
Boilermakers, Iron Ship Builders, Blacksmiths, Forgers and Helpers.
This increase in unions represented at the bargaining table reflects the
dissolution of the Railway Employees’ Department, which bargained
for four of six shop craft unions in the 1978 negotiations.




7Amtrak, a class I carrier, has never been represented by the con­
ference in negotiations.
8See The New York Times, July 15, p. 1.
9Collective bargaining in the railroad industry is governed by the
Railway Labor Act which provides an elaborate set of dispute settle­
ment procedures. The party wishing to reopen the contract must give
the other party 30 days’ notice of such intent, within which time ne­
gotiations must begin. If an agreement is not reached, either or both
parties may request the assistance of the National Mediation Board,
the agency that administers the act; or the board itself may proffer its
services. If mediation fails to bring about a settlement, the board
proffers arbitration. If arbitration is rejected, the board terminates its
services, and a 30-day status quo period begins. If the dispute remains
unresolved and is of a sufficient magnitude, the President may create
an ad hoc emergency board to investigate and make a report within
30 days. During this period and for 30 days thereafter, strikes and
changes in employee working conditions are prohibited.
10In 1972, Arnold Miller defeated W. A. “Tony” Boyle for presi­
dent of the umw . Miller was unable to control pro-Boyle and other
factions, dropped many reforms, and alienated many of his support­
ers. In ill health, he stepped down in 1979 and was succeeded by then
union vice president Sam Church. The union’s financial problems are
discussed briefly in Mary A. Andrews, “Mine Workers’ new president
wins dues increase, right to name VP,” Monthly Labor Review, March
1980, pp. 4 8 -50.
11The International Union of Operating Engineers and the Interna-

14

tional Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, both a f l - cio affiliates,
have actively organized western miners. The Progressive Mine Work­
ers and the Southern Labor Union, independents, have membership in
the Midwest and South. A minority of coal miners work in unorga­
nized mines.
12 See Harold Wool, “Coal industry resurgence attracts a variety of
new workers,’’ Monthly Labor Review, forthcoming.
13See “Developments in Industrial Relations,’’ Monthly Labor Re­
view, April 1978, pp. 55-56.
14See “Developments in Industrial Relations,” Monthly Labor Re­
view, May 1978, pp. 69-70.
15 At its peak, the strike disrupted the processing and delivery of
mail in 15 States and numerous cities. Federal troops were called in
to maintain service in some areas. Since 1970, work stoppages have
been minor. See Stephen C. Shannon, “Work stoppage in Govern­
ment: the postal strike of 1970,” Monthly Labor Review, July 1978,
pp. 14-22.

21 See footnote 3.

16Pacific Coast dockworkers still observe “Bloody Thursday” as a
holiday to commemorate July 5, 1934, when two strikers were killed
and many were injured by police. At this time, the workers were rep­
resented by the International Longshoremen’s Association.

22The data for 1981 are based on information available as of Nov. 1,
1980.
23The firms are Allegheny Ludlum Industries, Inc.; Armco Steel
Corp; Bethlehem Steel Corp.; Inland Steel Co.; Jones and Laughlin
Steel Corp.; National Steel Corp.; Republic Steel Corp.; United States
Steel Corp.; and Wheeling-Pittsburgh Steel Corp.

' Trunk line air carriers include American Airlines, Braniff Interna­
tional, Continental Airlines, Delta Air Lines, Eastern Air Lines,
Northwest Airlines, Pan American World Airways, Trans World Air­




lines, United Air Lines, and Western Airlines.
18Besides the mechanics, the Machinists bargains for stock and
stores and flight kitchen employees at Eastern and Northwest; stock
and stores, flight kitchen employees and guards at Trans World; and
communications, fleet service, stock and stores, flight kitchen employ­
ees, and dispatchers at United.
19Bargaining units for which information was not available: 274
agreements which expired or were reopened prior to Nov. 1, 1980,
covering 640,000 workers; and 55 contracts which expired or were re­
opened between Nov. 1 and Dec. 31, 1980, covering 178,000 workers.
20 About 477,000 construction workers will receive deferred increases
under settlements in which the parties agreed to a total wage and bene­
fit package, with the ultimate allocation between wages and bene­
fits to be determined by the union. Because the final division was not
known at the time this article was prepared, the entire package in
these cases has been treated as a wage increase, that may be over­
stated.

Appendix C. Explanatory Note

Data shown in tables 9 and 10 of this bulletin, listing
individual collective bargaining agreements on file with
the Bureau of Labor Statistics, differ from the totals
presented earlier in tables 1 and 2 for a variety of
reasons. Data in tables 1 and 2 include, in addition to
those agreements on file, information on collective
bargaining agreements from other sources, such as press
accounts and direct communication with union and
management. Additionally, a collective bargaining
situation included in tables 1 and 2 is defined as a
bargaining unit covering a total of 1,000 workers or
more. The results of bargaining in such a unit, when for
example multi-employer or multi-union groups are in­
volved, may be two or more separate collective bargain­
ing agreements each affecting fewer than 1,000 workers.
In such cases, the agreements are jointly negotiated and
have uniform terms including a common expiration
date.
Differences may also exist in employment coverage,




57

as tables 9 and 10 reflect employment data obtained at
the time the contract is received by the Bureau while
tables 1 and 2 reflect the most recent employment data
available at the time this bulletin was prepared. Changes
in worker coverage totals, in turn, may result in changes
in the number of situations classified as “ m ajor,” that
is, those applying to 1,000 workers or more. Finally,
contracts covering the railroad and airline industries are
not included in the Bureau’s agreement file, but are in­
cluded in tables 1 and 2.
To reconcile the differences between data presented in
tables 9 and 10 and in 1 and 2, supplemental tables 11
and 12 have been prepared. They list situations included
in tables 1 and 2, but not 9 and 10, and are based upon
the concepts used in preparing the former tables.
Because of the reasons listed earlier regarding employ­
ment differences, absolute comparability is not possi­
ble. However, the supplemental tables do aid in recon­
ciling differences between the two series of data.
