Benefits unilaterally introduced by an employer generally are included'. The information is obtained largely from collective bargaining agreements and related documents voluntarily filed with the Bureau. Descriptions of the course of collective bargaining are derived from the news media and confirmed and supplemented by the parties to the agreement. Wage chronologies, dealing only with selected features of collective bargaining or wage determination, are intended primarily as a tool for research, analysis, and wage administration. References to job security, grievance procedures, methods of piece-rate adjustment, and similar matters are omitted. This chronology summarizes changes in wage rates and related compensation practices negotiated by the Sinclair Oil Companies with the Oil Workers International Union until March 1955, and with the Oil, Chemical and Atomic Workers International Union (OCAW) from 1955 until March 4, 1969. At this time, Sinclair merged with the Atlantic Richfield Co. The chronology now is limited to the agreement between Atlantic Richfield and the OCAW covering the former Sinclair facilities.

Materials previously published have been supplemented in this report by contract changes negotiated in 1975, which brings the chronology up to date through January 7, 1977. The tables and those parts of the earlier texts which described the bargaining process are, with minor corrections, included as they were originally published. The analysis for the 1973-77 period was prepared in the Division of Trends in Employee Compensation by Richard E. Schumann and Joan D. Borum. The Bureau has introduced new job titles to eliminate those that denote sex stereotypes. For purposes of this bulletin, however, old titles have been retained where they refer specifically to contractual definitions. Where titles are used in the generic sense, and not to describe a contract term, they have been changed to eliminate the sex stereotype.

Later, in 1937, the name was changed to the Oil Workers International Union. In 1938, when the Congress of Industrial Organiza tions was formed, the OWIU was one of the first unions to affiliate with it. On March 4, 1955, the Oil Workers International Union (CIO) and the United Gas, Coke and Chemical Workers of America (CIO) merged to form the Oil, Chemical and Atomic Workers International Union. The relatively long series of agreements between Sinclair Oil Corp. subsidiaries and the Oil, Chemical and Atomic Workers constituted an unusual collective bargaining ap proach in the petroleum industry. Generally, firms have negotiated their agreements on a plant-by-plant basis but in the case of Sinclair, the master contract covered the major part of the companies’ operations. A substantial number of production workers employed at the oil wells and in the pipeline segment of the corporation, and some in the research departments as well as those in most of the refining occupations, were in the same bargaining unit.2 The 1969 merger did not alter this situation in regard to the former Sinclair facilities.3 Until recently, agreements on wages and working condi tions for employees covered by this chronology were negotiated separately, often at different times. Pension and insurance plans were contained in supplemental agreements. This practice, however, has been changing and, although there are still separate documents covering wages, working conditions, and supplemental benefits, these items are negotiated concurrently in one package. The method of negotiation in the industry has also been changing. In earlier years, the union’s National Oil Bargain ing Policy Committee4 would set goals for upcoming The Sinclair Consolidated Oil Corp. was organized in 1919. A reorganization in 1932 resulted in a name change, to the Consolidated Oil Corp.; a further change was effected in May 1943, when the name Sinclair Oil Corp. was adopted. The corporation was the sole owner of the Sinclair Refining Co., Sinclair Oil and Gas Co., Sinclair Pipe Line Co., and Sinclair Research Laboratories, Inc. as they were established. The company employed about 10,000 unionized workers to which this chronology makes reference. The Sinclair Refining Co. operated plants at Wellsville, N.Y. (closed in 1959); Houston and Corpus Christi, Tex. (the Corpus Christi plant was sold in 1962); East Chicago, Ind.; Marcus Hook, Pa.; Sinclair Wyo.; and Wood River, 111. (not covered under the master labor agreement), while the oil and gas company operated oil and gas wells across the country. On October 1, 1968, a consolidation took place which merged the Sinclair Refining Co., Sinclair Oil and Gas Co., and Sinclair Research Laboratories, Inc., into the parent Sinclair Oil Corp. The company employed about 5,000 unionized workers at that time. The Atlantic Richfield Co. acquired all Sinclair facilities late in 1968 and executed a formal merger on March 4, 1969. In consummating the merger, Atlantic Richfield was obligated to divest itself of two refineries (its Port Arthur, Tex., plant and the Sinclair plant at Marcus Hook, Pa.) and all former Sinclair marketing properties and related activities1 in the Southeastern and Northeastern States. These were sold, along with certain pipeline and terminal facilities, to the BP Oil Corp. On June 23, 1969, the name of the Sinclair Pipe Line Co. was changed to the ARCO Pipe Line Co. Atlantic Richfield’s holdings of former Sinclair prop erties were reduced on January 1, 1973, when it sold the Sinclair, Wyo., refinery and certain other properties en gaged in oil and gas, pipeline, and marketing operations. An additional reduction occurred when the East Chicago, Ind., re fin e ry was sold on May 26, 1976. As a result of these sales and earlier changes in corporate holdings and structure, this chronology refers only to the former Sinclair refinery in Houston, Tex. When the first master contract between the Sinclair companies and the Oil Workers was negotiated in 1934, the 3 Excluded from the bargaining unit were the following classifica tions: Supervisory, executive, administrative, professional, technical, and clerical. 3 Labor agreements for operations owned by Atlantic Richfield before the merger are still negotiated separately from the contract covering the former Sinclair facilities and are not included in this chronology. 4The 17-member National Oil Bargaining Policy Committee currently consists o f the eight U. S. district directors, one rank-and-file member elected by each o f the district councils, and the OCAW president as chairperson. Its purpose is to unify and refine the proposals made by local representatives at Oil Bargaining Conferences held before each bargaining round. Subsequently, the program is submitted to the membership for ratification; if 75 per cent of the bargaining units approve the program, it becomes bind ing on all OCAW bargainers in the industry. ‘ Employees o f the marketing properties and related activities, which were part of the Sinclair Refining Co. before the 1968 consolidation, were never part of the bargaining relationship traced in this chronology. 1 bargaining with the various unionized firms, but would be faced with a multitude of contract expiration dates, which in effect ruled out coordinated bargaining. At the present time, however, common expiration dates for OCAW con tracts are almost universal throughout the petroleum refining industry, allowing the union to press its demands with all the oil companies and to use the first settlement as a pattern for the rest o f the industry. Neither the former Sinclair Oil Corp. nor the present Atlantic Richfield Co. has necessarily been the pattern setter but both have substan tially followed the pattern once it was determined. In 1975, approximately 3,100 workers were covered under the master agreement with the Atlantic Richfield Co. for former Sinclair Oil Companies’ facilities. Provisions recorded in this chronology for July 1, 1941, do not necessarily indicate changes from previous condi tions of employment, since written agreements governing wage rates and related conditions of employment have been in effect since 1934. 2 Summary of Contract Negotiations January 1941—June 1952 whichever was greater, retroactive to February 1. In addi tion, increases in night-shift premiums were made effective June 15,1956. Negotiations in the spring of 1956 resulted in agreement on a 1-year contract on June 15, 1956. The settlement provided for 3 weeks’ vacation after 10 years’ service, an additional paid holiday (Good Friday), an increase in moving expenses, and, effective October 1, 1956, a liberal ized employee savings plan. Wages were not an issue in these negotiations. During this period, agreements negotiated between the company and union provided for ten general wage increases which totaled $1,385, and automatic cost-of-living adjust ments totaling 31 cents. Benefits established during this period were shift premium pay, subsistence pay, and severance and clothing allowances; moving expenses, be reavement pay, and jury-duty pay; health and welfare and sickness and accident benefits; a retirement plan; and an employee savings plan. Improved benefits included vaca tions, sfaifted-tour pay, demotion pay allowances, paid holi days, and an overtime premium. June 1957—December 1963 Under the terms of a wage agreement concluded in June 1957 by the Sinclair Oil Companies and the OCAW, over 9,000 workers received a general wage increase of 5 percent retroactive to April 1 and an additional 1 percent retro active to May 1, 1957. A separate 2-year working agreement, signed by the companies and the union on August 8, 1957, increased premium pay for holiday work, reduced the service requirement for 4 weeks’ vacation to 20 years, and increased allowances for employees required to spend the night away from home or to move to another location. Hospital and surgical benefits were improved by a supple mental agreement signed on the same day. Under the terms of the 1957 master agreement which permitted new negotiations on wages at the request of one of the parties, the union in June 1958 proposed the wage increase set forth in its 1958 bargaining program for the oil industry. The OCAW’s 1958 program called for wage increases to compensate for increases in the cost of living and in productivity, and a reduction of the workweek from 40 to 36 hours (with no change in take-home pay) to provide jobs for workers laid off because of increasing automation. The union also sought from the Sinclair Companies liberalization of pension benefits, particularly with regard to early retirement; improvements in sickness and accidents benefits; and changes in the employee savings plan. In reply, the companies offered to improve pensions. After almost 5 months of negotiations, the OCAW revised its industry bargaining program at its October 1958 annual convention and, in November, proposed a 25-cent-an-hour pay increase. This proposal was also rejected by Sinclair’s representatives, who maintained that economic conditions in the oil industry did not justify a pay increase at that time. In mid-January 1959, a 5-percent general pay increase July 1952-May 1957 The July 1, 1952 contract, scheduled to remain in force until June 30, 1953, contained significant changes in the employees’ benefit plan. An agreement to bargain on the plan during the life of the contract was also reached in the 1952 negotiations. In accordance with the provisions of the contract, the Oil Workers International Union (CIO) and the Sinclair Oil Corp. subsidiaries negotiated a voluntary savings plan early in 1953 under which the company would match half of the monthly savings elected by employees. The plan, effective July 1, 1953, gave participating employees a choice of several types of investment for their savings. On August 1, 1953, a supplemental wage agreement providing for a 4-percent general wage increase retroactive to July 1 was concluded. Both basic and supplemental agreements were extended without change or reopening for at least 13 months, after which they could be reopened or terminated upon 60 days’ notice. In June 1955, the companies and the union—now the AFL-CIO O il, C hem ical and A tom ic Workers (OCAW)—agreed to a general wage increase of 10 cents an hour, retroactive to March 1, 1955, and reached tentative agreement on liberalized sickness and accident disability benefits and amendments to the hospitalization and surgical plan as well as on other contract provisions. The supple mental benefit changes were embodied in agreements dated August 22, 1955. The pension plan was also amended as a result of the 1955 negotiations. In March 1956, the companies and the union concluded negotiations on a supplemental wage agreement providing for a general wage raise of 6 percent or 15 cents an hour, 3 was offered by Sinclair to the OCAW and on January 18—the Sinclair strike deadline—the union’s National Bar gaining Policy Committee accepted that offer, subject to ratification by the membership. This wage settlement became the industry pattern. Concurrent with the January 1959 wage settlement, the companies agreed to amend the employee savings plan. Under the terms of a memorandum of understanding signed February 27, 1959, participants in the jointly financed plan were given vested rights to company contributions if their employment was terminated because of lack of work. In addition, provisions regarding withdrawals of employee allotments and company contributions were liberalized. Benefit coverage was also improved under the sickness and accident benefits plan in January 1959, but the pension plan issue was referred to a study committee. Negotiations on contract provisions covering working conditions, pensions, and insurance began again in May 1959. The union demands for a shorter workweek and improvements in the pension, insurance, and severance pay plans, as well as other proposals, were countered by a company proposal to eliminate “restrictive and costly provisions” from the contracts. Settlement was reached just prior to June 14, 1959, the expiration date of the 1957 agreements. The new contracts increased allowances for moving and overnight living expenses. For the first time in the 25 years since the companies and the union had signed a nationwide contract, a supplemental agreement on life insurance—designed to replace a plan established earlier by the companies-was negotiated by the parties; the revised plan substantially increased benefits. The retirement plan was also improved by a supplemental agreement: the improvements, effective January 1, 1960, included in creased normal and minimum annuities, a wider choice of annuity options, and elimination of the $600 annual earnings minimum previously necessary to qualify under the plan. No changes were made in the hospital and surgical plan when the union members failed to ratify the proposed substitution of comprehensive medical insurance for the hospital and surgical program in effect. The new basic working agreement was to continue until June 14, 1961. The life insurance plan was to remain in effect until September 1, 1964, and the retirement plan until January 1 , 1965; both plan£ could have been reopened on or after April 15,1964. Early in June 1960, the parties reached agreement on an employee-financed extended medical expense plan which would be available to participants in the basic hospitalsurgical insurance program, effective December 1, 1960. In July 1960, the National Bargaining Policy Committee of the OCAW, after considering the rise in the Consumer Price Index and the estimated increase in productivity in the industry since the last wage increase in January 1959, established general wage increases of 18 cents an hour and agreements lasting 1 year as bargaining goals for all negotiations scheduled during the year. By mid-November, subsequent to the recess of negotiations with Sinclair, several major producers other than Sinclair had offered their workers 5-percent wage increases in 2-year agree-. ments. After resuming negotiations, Sinclair and the OCAW, on December 15, agreed to a 14-cent-an-hour general wage increase, effective December 19. This was the union’s first settlement in the 1960 round of wage negotiations with a major petroleum company. On July 12, 1961, a 1-year working agreement was announced by4he parties. The settlement, affecting about 9,000 workers, was ratified on July 27, ending a strike by some 4,000 workers at four refineries that had begun on June 16. Workers at other operations covered under the master agreement continued on the job after the previous contract expired on June 14. Severance pay was the key issue. Under the settlement, the severance benefits of the previous contract (a maximum of 4 weeks’ pay Tor laid-off workers with 10 or more years’ service) were left un changed; should major layoffs be required at any time in the future, the parties agreed to review conditions existing at that time. Allowances for moving and overnight living expenses were increased, however, as proposed by the companies before the strike. This agreement was to be in effect through July 26,1962. Following wage settlements in petroleum refining in the winter of 1960-61, no major bargaining over wages occured in the industry until the second half of 1962. In June of that year, the National Bargaining Policy Committee of the Oil, Chemical and Atomic Workers International Union set as a bargaining goal a 6 xh percent increase in earnings and/or benefits, with a minimum increase of 17 cents an hour. The proposal was approved by the union membership in the following month. The union sought also a common termination date of December 31, 1963, for all of its contracts. In December 1962, as a result of West Coast settlements in the industry, the committee voted to reduce its wage demand and to approve the pattern of 5-percent wage increases that had developed in those settlements. Negotiations with the Sinclair Companies began on January 3, 1963, after preliminary discussions in October 1962. A 5-percent wage increase in a 1-year contract was agreed to on January 11, 1963, retroactive to January 1, Some 6,500 Sinclair refinery, pipeline, production, and research employees were covered. The sickness and accident benefit and the employees’ savings plan agreements were each extended without change for a 3-year period, begin ning February 1. To meet increases in hospital costs, the parties worked out a new schedule of employee contribu tions — averaging $5.33 a month — to the hospital and surgical plan, which was extended without other changes for 2 years, also beginning February 1. January 1964—June 1966 Bargaining goals for 1964 negotiations in the oil industry were adopted by the National Bargaining Policy Committee of the union in January. The principal objective developed 4 by the Committee and approved by the membership in March was the equivalent o f a 5-percent wage increase to be applied entirely to fringe benefits. In mid-July, negotiators for the OCAW and Sinclair Oil Companies announced agreement on a 2-year contract covering approximately 6,000 Sinclair refinery, pipeline, production, and research employees. Retroactive to July 1, the agreement provided fringe benefits approximately equivalent to a ^ -p e rc e n t wage increase. The major improvements were the establishment of a flexible normal retirement age, with the minimum age set at 62; elimination of the 40-year maximum on service credited in computing minimum annuities (by allowing credit for service before age 25); and an additional week’s vacation, bringing the total to 5, for workers with 25 years or more of service. Other changes included increases in subsistence pay and moving expenses, and modified life insurance benefits for retirees. While the Sinclair agreement allocated the entire increase in 1964 to fringe benefits, most other oil companies negotiating with the union subsequently agreed to a 2 -percent wage increase which, with improvements in paid vacations and pensions, approximated a 4^-percent package settlement. The Sinclair contract was to remain in effect through June 30, 1966, and had provisions for reopening on wages on or after July 1, 1965; on hospital and surgical and extended medical expense benefits at any time; and on supplemental agreements applicable to the employees’ savings plan and the sickness and accident disability benefit plan. On July 1, 1965, the OCAW notified the company of its desire to reopen the wage agreement. The subsequent negotiations resulted in a 4%-percent wage increase effec tive October 8, 1965, which was set forth in a memoran dum of understanding of the same date. The new base rates o f pay were to remain in effect through December 31, 1966. At the same time the parties to the contract agreed to extend the master agreement from its scheduled June 30, 1966, expiration date through October 1, 1966. Negotiations already had been under way on the supplemental agreement covering the employee hospital and surgical plan and the extended medical expense plan.5 Under a memorandum of understanding dated October 11, 1965, increased benefits under both the hospital and surgical plan and the extended medical expense plan became effective January 1, 1966, and the term of the amended supplemental agreement was extended through December 31,1968. adopted bargaining proposals which included job security and increased shift differentials. Wage increases of 18 cents ( 6 cents to be applied to medical-hospitalization insurance) effective January 1, 1967, and 18 cents an hour on January 1, 1968, were proposed. The Job security proposals in cluded the guarantee of employment for all regular employ ees at existing or higher wage rates until retirement. In addition, the committee included proposals for giving em ployees of petroleum companies other than Sinclair pension plan improvements equivalent to those negotiated with Sin clair in 1964. Committee proposals included, for Sinclair employees only, reduced service requirements for vacations and an additional 2-percent increase in wages which had been negotiated with the rest of the industry in 1964. Prior to the October 1 termination of their master agreement, Sinclair and representatives of the union reached a settlement, on August 4, that liberalized vaca tions in 1966, established a joint committee to study job security, and extended the contract to June 1,1967. Shortly thereafter, this agreement was rejected by the union, whose offficials asserted that the union negotiators had violated the OCAW constitution by negotiating a pact that conflicted with the bargaining program adopted by the National Bargaining Policy Committee. The company main tained that the contract was valid and under the LaborManagement Relations (Taft-Hartley) Act, filed suit in a Federal district court. The suit asked for enforcement of the agreement or alternative damages. The union filed charges with the National Labor Relations Board; it alleged that the company had refused to bargain and had interfered with employee rights. Although the validity of the August 4 settlement was in dispute, the parties began discussions on the terms of a new wage agreement on October 26 to replace the one expiring December 31, 1966. The union, refusing to acknowledge the August 4 settlement, sought consideration of the full bargaining program developed by its National Bargaining Policy Committee; Sinclair sought to limit negotiations to the wage issue. When negotiations did not produce an agreement before December 31, 1966, the union served a 15-day notice of its intent to strike. Discussions continued. After a number of settlements between the union and other petroleum com panies, an agreement with Sinclair was announced on January 16, 1967, and was ratified by the workers on February 13. The new Sinclair agreement resolved the dispute over the August 4 settlement; the latter was rescinded and deemed not to have had any force or effect at any time, and the parties were released from any liability or legal obligation June 1966-December 1968 under it. The effective date of the master agreement was extended through December 31, 1968. Base rates of pay of On June 29, 1966, the National Bargaining Policy approximately 5,000 refinery, pipeline, production, and Committee of the Oil, Chemical and Atomic Workers research employees were increased 2 percent plus an additional 14 cents (a total averaging 20.5 cents an hour) 5 The union did not exercise options to reopen supplemental effective January 1, 1967. Pay differentials for the second agreements applicable to the employees’ savings plan and the and third shifts were raised and paid vacations were sickness and accident disability benefit plan. 5 improved effective January 1, 1967. The pact included a wage increase of 4 percent, averaging 14 cents an hour effective January 1, 1968, and permitted wage changes after December 31,1968. The agreement further provided that a 60-day written notice would be given of the company’s intent to lay off regular employees in any reduction of the work force. At the union’s request, the parties would meet during that period to consider ways of lessening the effect of, or averting, the layoff. If satisfactory terms could not be reached during the meeting, the union could exercise the right to strike by serving a 60-day written notice within 30 days after the layoff date. highly automated, many plants (including Sinclair’s) con tinued operations with supervisory personnel. A break occurred in the strike when the union reached agreement on January 12 with Union Oil Co. of California on a 2-year contract scheduled to expire December 31, 1970. This contract became the pattern for negotiations with other companies. Similar agreements soon were reached with many firms, and on January 24, Sinclair signed with the union. The contract with Sinclair Oil Companies, ratified by union members on January 25 and 26, followed closely the pattern settlement at Union Oil. Wages for the approxi mately 4,000 refinery, pipeline, production, and research employees were increased by 6 percent (with a minimum of 22 cents an hour) on January 27, 1969, and an additional 4 xh percent on January 1, 1970. The rates for certain crafts were increased by an additional 5 cents an hour on each date. Benefit changes in the first year included an increase in the allowance for moving expenses, higher subsistence pay, an increase in shift premiums, and liberalized demo tion pay. Under supplemental agreements, changes were made in health and welfare, retirement, and employee savings plans. An improved basic hospital and surgical plan, effective February 1, 1969, included an increase in hospital room and board and surgical benefits for employees, retirees, and dependents. To finance the improvements, monthly contri butions to the plan for both the company and the employee, or annuitant, were increased. Employee contri butions to the retirement fund, however, were reduced. The employee savings plan was amended on October 1, 1969, to allow a retiree to defer receipt of the account’s proceeds for 365 days following retirement. January 1969—December 1970 Bargaining proposals for negotiations in the petroleum industry in 1968 were adopted by the National Bargaining Policy Committee o f the OCAW in July of that year. Approximately 350 agreements covering 60,000 employees of various oil companies were to expire on December 31, with negotiations on most contracts scheduled to begin 60 days in advance. (At least one OCAW contract in petroleum refining was to expire after December 31, 1968.) Contract demands included general wage increases of 72 cents an hour over 23 months (12 cents retroactive to October 1, 1968, 32 cents on January 1, 1969, and 28 cents on December 1, 1969) and an additional 15 cents for craftsmen on January 1, 1969, and 10 cents on December 1, 1969. Also proposed were: An increase in premium pay for the second and third shifts; improved pensions for those already retired; company assumption of the full cost of the pension and insurance-hospitalization plans; 2 additional paid holidays; and improved vacation and Sunday-work pay. Contract negotiations, conducted locally by the indivi dual bargaining units, began around November 1, 1968, at most firms, including the Sinclair Oil Companies. (A few firms where contracts provided for a reopening 90 days in advance of the expiration date began negotiating on October 1.) As the midnight-December 31 deadline drew near, little progress was reported in narrowing substantially the differ ence between offers made by the various companies and union demands; OCAW President A. F. Grospiron said there was every mdication that an industrywide strike would occur. The strike was postponed when, according to union officials, there were signs of movement in the position of company negotiators on December 31. Workers remained on the job without a contract as bargaining continued. However, the union struck on January 4 when the parties reportedly remained far apart on major issues, thus ending a series of peaceful negotiations between the OCAW and the industry dating back to 1952, when the last industrywide strike had occurred. Because the industry is January 1971-December 1972 OCAW delegates met in Denver in April 1970 for the union’s National Oil Bargaining Planning Conference to discuss the union’s position in the upcoming negotiations with the petroleum industry. Delegates voiced concern over the rise in the cost o f living and proposed substantial wage increases and improved fringe benefits, including increased health insurance coverage. It also was proposed that the union should not hold as negotiable those contract provi sions which had been attained under prior agreements, such as job security and rate retention. In meetings held June 24-26, the OCAW’s National Oil Bargaining Policy Committee set the following goals: 1.

The Atlantic Richfield Co. continued the practice of the former Sinclair Oil Corp. and negotiated a single master agreement with the OCAW for the 3,700 Sinclair workers affected by the March 4, 1969, merger of the two firms. The new contract followed the Gulf lead in most respects except for the substitution of the company’s pension, thrift, and group life plans for the former Sinclair plans. The master and supplemental agreements were to expire December 31,1972. January 1973—January 1975 On March 20-21, 1972, OCAW delegates convened at the National Oil Bargaining Planning Conference in Denver to adopt bargaining proposals for negotiations in the petro leum industry. Contracts were to expire on December 31. The proposals included improved pensions, company-paid hospital-medical insurance, substantial wage increases, and improved health and safety conditions. After reviewing these proposals, the OCAW’s National Oil Bargaining Policy Committee met June 28-29 and set the following goals: By September, these proposals had been ratified by the necessary three-fourths majority of locals. Many locals reemphasized their concern over the state of the economy and urged the union to place highest priority on protection for members affected by plant closures. Negotiations, conducted locally at most firms, started in the first week of November. Early in December, Texaco, Inc. offered a 2-year contract providing general wage increases of 7 percent the first year and 5 percent the second, increases in its contributions to the hospitalization plan, and pension improvements. The offer was rejected as inadequate. On December 17, the Gulf Oil Corp. offered wage increases of 8 percent the first year and 6 percent the second with pension improvements, but this also was rejected. A day before the December 31 contract expira tion, however, Gulf submitted another proposal which was accepted by the Union Policy Committee and adopted as the pattern to be sought from other firms. The Gulf contract reportedly provided for an 8.5percent increase on January 1, 1971, followed by a 7.5-percent increase a year later. It added a ninth paid holiday and increased the annual pension for service subsequent to January 1, 1971 from 1.2 percent to 1.6 percent o f average base wages for the highest 5 consecutive years of the last 10 employed times years of credited service (less 1.5 percent of the primary social security benefit per year of service, with a maximum social security offset of 50 percent). The age for an unreduced pension was lowered from 65 to 62. The company agreed to increase its contribution toward hospitalization insurance for family coverage to $20 per month in 1971, and to $25 per month in 1972. Finally, the company agreed to give the union 6 months’ notice of plant closings and to negotiate on benefits for displaced and transferred workers. Contracts at most companies followed the Gulf settle ment, with some deviation in pension provisions due to existing differences in plans. Several smaller companies failed to come to terms and were struck, affecting a total of about 1,700 workers, but on January 14, A. F. Grospiron, President of the OCAW, said negotiations were substantially concluded. 1. F ifty -cen t w age increases on January 1, 1 9 73, and January 1, 1 974; 2. Im proved pen sion b en efits, including m inim um annual ben efits equal to 1.7 percent o f final earnings tim es years o f credited service, elim ination o f social security o ffsets, op tion al retirem ent at age 60 w ith no actuarial red u ction , full com pany paym ent o f pension cost, and a 10-percent increase in pensions o f workers already retired; 3. C om pany p aym ent o f the to ta l cost o f hospitalsurgical insurance; 4. Establishm ent o f labor-m anagem ent health and safety com m ittees at each com p an y, w ith com pany contri b utions o f 2 cen ts for h ealth and safety research; and 5. Shift differentials o f 5 percent for the second shift and 10 percent for the m idnight shift, instead o f the existing cents per hour amounts. By September, about 97 percent of the locals had ratified these proposals. Contract negotiations, conducted locally by individual bargaining units, began in early November. Many of the companies’ initial offers included wage increases of 5 percent in 1973 and 4 percent in 1974, and a $5-a-month increase in company payments for family hospital insurance coverage and a $2.50-increase for single-worker coverage. Union bargaining committees rejected all offers until December 31, 1972, when a settlement was reached at American Oil Company. This contract set a pattern for other companies including Atlantic Richfield, which settled January 5, 1973. The settlement covered all Atlantic Richfield operations, but the parties continued to draw up a separate contract (under a so-called master agreement) for the former Sinclair Oil facilities covered in this chronology. An important feature of the new contracts was adoption of improved health and safety plans. 7 The plan negotiated at most major companies, including Atlantic Richfield, established a joint committee at each company consisting of an equal number (not less than two nor more than four each) of company and union repre sentatives. Among other stipulations in the contract was a provision for independent health consultants available to the committees for industrial health research surveys. The joint committees would review the findings of the surveys to determine if corrective measures were necessary, in cluding employees’ physical examinations and tests at company expense. The Atlantic Richfield settlement also provided for general wage increases of 6 percent on January 1,1973, and 27 cents on January 1, 1974. Differentials were increased, effective January 1, 1974, to 20 cents an hour on the afternoon shift and 40 cents on the midnight shift. The Atlantic Richfield Medical Insurance Plan and the Atlantic Richfield Medicare Supplement Plan replaced the previous medical plans, effective April 1, 1973, and the company increased its monthly contribution toward hospital and surgical insurance to $15 for employee-only and $30 for family coverage, effective January 1, 1973, and to $17.50 and $35, respectively, effective January 1, 1974. Normal pensions were increased for retirement on or after Decem ber 31, 1972, by changing from 1 to 1.125 percent that portion of the normal allowance formula applicable to the member’s base pay that did not exceed his average annual social security base. Subsistence pay was increased to $15 a day, a liberalized definition o f “family” was adopted for bereavement pay, and group life insurance and the savings plan were improved. The master and supplemental agreements were to remain in effect until January 7,1975. Policy Committee convened to formulate a specific bar gaining program. The following goals were established: 1. Three-year contracts, expiring on January 7, 1978; 2. N o retrogression o f previous term s and con d itions; 3. Standardization o f th e unilateral wage increase granted b y m any com panies earlier to a flat 50 cents an hour, retroactive to May 1, 1974; 4. $1.50-an-hour general wage increase on January 7, 197 5 , January 7, 197 6 , and January 7, 19 7 7 ; 5. E stablishm ent o f a cost-of-living escalator clause w ith unlim ited adjustm ents every 2 m on th s beginning in March 1975 equal to the percentage increase in the Bureau o f Labor Statistics C onsum er Price Index; 6. F u ll com p an y p aym ents o f hospital-surgical insurance cost; 7. Com pany-paid retirem ent plans in d ep en d en t o f social security benefits; and 8. Im proved vacation b enefits. The program was ratified by the union membership in September. Contract negotiations, conducted locally by individual bargaining units, began in early November. Counteroffers made by some companies generally included a 60-cent-anhour wage increase in the first year and 50 cents in the second year of a 2-year contract, and changes in the pension program. On December 19, 1974, Atlantic Richfield offered the union a 2-year contract, with a 10.5-percent wage increase effective January 8, 1975, and a wage reopener in the second year of the contract. The proposal also included increased company medical insurance contributions o f $5 a month for family coverage and $2.50 a month for employee-only coverage and improvements in the retire ment plan. On January 10, 1975,3 days following expiration of the industry’s contracts, the union and Gulf Oil Corp. reached agreement on a 2-year contract which essentially set the pattern for negotiations throughout the industry, including those at Atlantic Richfield, which concluded with a settlement on January 14. There were scattered local walkouts at a few companies but not at Atlantic Richfield. The Atlantic Richfield accord provided substantially the same terms for all company operations with OCAWrepresented employees, but, as in the past, a separate agreement was signed for the former Sinclair facilities. The pattern settlement at Gulf called for wage increases of 75 cents an hour on January 8, 1975, 4 percent on July 8 , 1975, and 8 percent on January 8, 1976. Additionally the agreement provided for a wage reopener if, during the contract term, the BLS Consumer Price Index increased more than 5 percent above the January 1, 1976, level. The agreement also added a 10th paid holiday. On January 8, 1975, the company’s contributions toward hospitalization insurance were increased to $42.50 a month per employee for family coverage, from $35, and to $20, from $17.50, for employee-only coverage. These contributions were raised to $50 and $22.50, respectively, on January 8, 1976. January 1975—January 1977 The National Oil Bargaining Planning Conference of OCAW met on April 29-30, 1974, in Denver to set bargaining goals for the petroleum industry, where con tracts were due to expire on January 7, 1975. The Conference proposed that the union seek substantial wage increases, establishment of a cost-of-living escalator clause with no ceiling on adjustments, total company payment of hospital-medical insurance, and improved pensions. On June 1, 1974, many of the Nation’s major oil companies announced unscheduled wage increases, re portedly because of the rapid increase in the cost of living. At Atlantic Richfield, the increase was granted to all nonunion employees and offered to employees represented by the OCAW, which accepted in a June 5 memorandum of agreement. The increase, which was effective June 24, was 6 percent of the first $12,000 of annual base pay and 2 percent o f any excess. In addition, the company agreed to eliminate the employee pension contribution of 4 percent of annual base pay in excess of $12,000. On June 4-5, 1974, the OCAW National Oil Bargaining 8 discounted retirement and adoption of revisions in the benefits reduction schedule for retirements prior to age 62. The settlement also included an increase in the minimum monthly pension to $ 10 per year of credited service, and undiscounted retirement at age 60, with a 5-percent per year actuarial reduction for retirement under age 60. The Atlantic Richfield settlement followed the pattern except for retention of age 62 as the minimum age for un The following tables bring the wage chronology up to date through January 7, 1977, the expiration date of the current master and supplemental agreements. 9 Table 1.
