The Board also provided for the establishment of port labormanagement committees to determine local standards on matters not covered specifically by the award. The award followed a long and bitter strike of the International Longshoremen’ s Association (AFL), which terminated when the parties agreed to submit all issues to arbitration. Although subsequent agree ments amended the Board’ s award, it has provided the basic framework for West Coast longshore agreements during the past 15 years. In 1938, the National Labor Relations Board certified the International Longshoremen’ s and Warehousemen’ s Union (CIO) as the collective bargaining representative of Pacific Coast longshoremen. At three Puget Sound ports— Tacoma, Port Angeles, and Anacortes— the longshoremen chose to remain with the International Longshoremen’ s Association (AFL). In June 1937, the em ployers organized the Waterfront Employers’ Association of the Pacific Coast; in 1949 this association joined with the Pacific American Shipowners Association, which bargained with offshore labor, to form the Pacific Maritime Association. This coastwide association conducts direct negotiations with the union. Port labor-management committees negotiate supplementary working rules dealing with conditions peculiar to each port area. This chronology traces the changes since 1934 in wages and related wage practices in the ports of Los Angeles, Long Beach, San Francisco, the Puget Sound area of the State of Washington (excluding ILA ports), and Port land, Oreg. (including Columbia River ports), as provided by collective agree ments and by awards of the National Longshoremen’ s Board, National War Labor Board, Pacific Coast Longshore Factfinding Board, and coast arbitrators. It deals with changes affecting longshoremen, gang bosses, hatch tenders, winch drivers, donkey men, boom men, burton men, sack turners, side runners, front men, jitney drivers, and other workers engaged in moving cargo from the vessel to its first place of rest on the dock and from the last place of rest on the dock to the vessel. Changes affecting checkers, car loaders, and other waterfront workers not covered by the coast longshore agreement are not reviewed. Since individual agreements had been concluded in some ports prior to the 1934 award of the National Longshoremen’ s Board, provisions reported under that date do not necessarily indicate changes in previous conditions of employ ment. The current coastwide agreement, effective December 6, 1948, can be terminated on June 15, 1951. It provided for a reopening on September 30, 1949, for a review of wage rates and a discussion of welfare and pension plans. Negotiations pursuant to the wage review led to the establishment of the ILWUPMA welfare plan. On September 30, 1950, another review is permitted. Failing 1 2 agreement, wage rates are to be referred to the coast arbitrator for determina tion. Welfare and pension plans for longshoremen may be a matter for negotia tion in any wage review, but are not subject to arbitration or strike action. 1950 Pursuant to the terms of the December 6, 1948, collective bargaining agreement, which provided for a wage review on September 30, 1950, the Pacific Maritime Association and the International Longshoremen’ s and Warehousemen’ s Union (now independent) negotiated a wage increase. The present agreement, which can be terminated on June 15, 1951, does not provide for another wage reopening. 1951-52 Pursuant to the Pacific Coast Longshore Agreement which became effec tive June 16, 1951, a pension fund, to be financed by employer contributions from July 1, 1951, through June 30, 1961, was agreed to by the Pacific Maritime As sociation and the International Longshoremen’ s and Warehousemen’ s Union. Each employer’ s contribution was to be determined on a tonnage basis, using a formula establishing the equivalent of 15 cents an hour for hours worked and tons handled during the base period from 1948 through 1951. The amount thus established was to remain unchanged until July 1, 1956, when the parties may negotiate a change in the amount of the assessment. The contract provided that ’’the contributions required by this agreement or supplement or amendment thereto shall cease July 1, 1961. The plan shall continue in effect until the then-existing Fund has been exhausted. ” The plan, which will be fully funded at the end of the 10-year period of contributions, should have sufficient reserves to continue the minimum basic payments during the lives of all employees retired by June 30, 1961, if the plan is not extended beyond that date. The fund is administered by six trustees, three designated by the association and three by the union. The new agreement provided also for an increase in basic hourly rates and for several changes in related wage practices. Amendment of the welfare and insurance plan extended hospital, medical,and surgical benefits to the families of employees. Under the new contract, five medical care plans are in effect and cover the various locals under the welfare fund program. The Permanente Health Plan covers the locals in the San Pedro, San Francisco Bay, and Portland— Vancouver areas; the Coos Bay Hospital Association covers locals in North Bend, Bandon, and Reedsport, Oreg. ; the Grays Harbor Hospital Association applies to Aberdeen, Wash. ; the Seattle Group Health Cooperative covers the men in Seattle while their families are covered under the Insured Plan. The Insured Plan covers all locals in California, Oregon, and Washington that are not under any of the first four plans. The contract first was negotiated to be effective from June 16, 1951, through June 15, 1953. In accordance with its wage-reopening provision, the 1951 agreement was reopened in May 1952 at the request of the union for a r e view of wages and employers’ contributions to the welfare fund. Increases in basic straight and overtime rates, plus an increase in employers’ contributions to the welfare fund, were negotiated and became effective June 16, 1952. The agreement was extended to June 15, 1954, with a reopening June 15, 1953, for a review of wage rates and welfare fund contributions, and for negotiation of penalty cargo rates, skill differentials, and vacations. 3 1953 In May 1952, the Pacific Maritime Association (PMA) and the International Longshoremen’ s Union (ILWU—Ind.) agreed to extend their 2-year contract, ne gotiated in 1951, to July 1954 with changes in wages and welfare benefits. P ro vision was made for a reopening on June 15, 1953, for a review of basic straighttime and overtime rates and welfare contributions, subject to arbitration, and for negotiation (not subject to arbitration) of penalty cargo rates, skill differentials, and vacations. Accordingly, union negotiators held preliminary meetings from April 12 to 15, 1953, to determine what proposals they would present to the shipowners. The first meeting of the representatives of the union and employers took place May 14, 1953. On June 2, the parties made a joint announcement that the basic con tract would be further extended to June 15, 1955, with a reopening on June 15, 1954, for review of all wage rates, vacations, and welfare contributions. The issue of straight-time and overtime rates for the year beginning June 15, 1953, was submitted to the Pacific Coast arbitrator, in accordance with the terms of the basic contract providing for arbitration in the event of failure to agree on basic straight-time and overtime rates. The arbitrator’ s award, binding on both parties, was announced June 12, 1953. It provided for a 6-cent increase in straight-time hourly rates and a 9-cent increase in overtime rates. 1954-58 Negotiations— held in accordance with the reopening stipulations of the agreement expiring in June 1955 between the Pacific Maritime Association (PMA) and the International Longshoremen’ s and Warehousemen’ s Union (ILWU—Ind.)— resulted in agreement in May 1954 on a 1-year extension of the existing contract to June 1956. The amended agreement provided for liberalized vacation pro visions and established a pilot dental care program for certain minor dependents to be financed from a $750, 000 welfare fund surplus. It also contained a pro vision designed to permit a common expiration date for East and West Coast maritime contracts. Discussions on wages continued, and on December 2, 1954, the parties approved a settlement providing for a 5-cent-an-hour across-theboard advance, effective December 20, 1954, and a deferred hourly increase of 6 cents effective June 13, 1955, as well as increased company payments into the welfare fund. The dental care program initiated in the spring of 1954 was ex tended to June 1956, and the parties agreed to continue to try to arrive at a common expiration date with the East Coast. In May 1956, the PMA and ILWU agreed to extend their contract for 2 years more— until August 1, 1958— if that became the common termination of review dates on all coasts, or otherwise, until June 15, 1958. They agreed on an interim 2-cent-an-hour wage adjustment, effective June 18; revised eligibility requirements for pension benefits; continued the dental care program subject to review in 1957; and provided for wage reopenings in September 1956 and again in the spring of 1957, when welfare contributions and two additional items selected by the union could also be reopened. Any disagreement at the time of the 1957 negotiations was to be submitted to arbitration. 4 The wage negotiations in the fall of 1956 were concluded on November 28, 1956, and resulted in a 16-cent-an-hour general wage raise retroactive to Oc tober 1, 1956. The previously extended agreement was again reopened in May 1957 at the request of the union and, on June 1, 1957, when the parties failed to reach agreement, the issues were submitted to arbitration. The arbitrators award, announced on June 14, 1957, provided hourly wage increases and increased em ployer contributions to the welfare fund. The unions request for a reduction in the regular workshift and for three paid holidays was denied. (The union had proposed in June 1956 that the workshift be cut from 9 hours— including 3 hours1 overtime— to 8 hours— including 2 hours1 overtime— without a reduction in daily pay or a decrease in daily output per worker. The PMA had agreed to consider the proposal provided the union agreed to eliminate certain work practices.) About a year later, on July 3, 1958, the parties signed a memorandum of settlement providing for a general wage increase retroactive to June 16, a reduction in the regular workshift from 9 hours (including 3 at overtime rates) to 8 hours (including 2 hours at overtime), and establishment of a third shift with 9 hours1 pay for 5 hours1 w ork.1 Vacation benefits were also liberalized. The 1-year contract covering approximately 18,000 employees was to expire June 15, 1959, subject to a union proposal for a uniform expiration date with other coasts. 1959 A 3-year agreement was negotiated late in July 1959 and was signed on August 10. Its most unusual feature was provision for employers to contribute to a fund totaling $1.5 million during the first contract year, to be used to give workers a share in the results of mechanization in return for union agreement to permit introduction of labor saving devices. The method of distributing the fund among the fully registered work force and the method and amount of the em ployer contribution after the first year remained to be determined. It was agreed that the fully registered work force would be maintained at the 1958 level with allowance for normal attrition and that for a period of not more than 1 year, the parties would continue to study the problem of sharing the gains of mechanization and to negotiate regarding a method for converting the fund and employer con tributions to a continuing basis. The changes in work methods resulting from the introduction of labor saving devices permitted under the contract were not to violate rules prohibiting individual speedup and unsafe operations. No other changes in work methods, such as reduction in gang size, are permitted for the first year and until final agreement has been reached regarding the fund. Provision was made for a general wage increase during the first year and, effective January 1, I960, for an 8-hour daily guarantee. Reopenings on wages, hours, and mechanization are provided during the second and third con tract years, with the second of these reopenings also including paid holidays. The 3-year agreement expires June 15, 1962. 1 Although there was a provision for a 90-day trial period (to determine the practical application of the new shift arrangement), the clause was to be effective throughout the remainder of the contract. 5 1960—65 Delegates to the I960 Coast Caucus of the International Longshoremen's and Warehousemen’ s Union (ILWU) (Ind. ) voted on April 7 to use the $l7z million mechanization fund, provided under the 1959 agreement with the Pacific Maritime Association (PMA), to stabilize earnings of fully registered longshoremen at a level equal to 35 straight-time hours per week. This was to be accomplished by shifting surplus workers to other areas where work was available, encouraging early retirement, and providing supplemental unemployment benefits for fully registered longshoremen working less than 35 hours a week. The delegates de termined that the expanded benefits would require an additional $3 million and agreed to request this amount from the association for the second contract year beginning June 15, I960. Under the first of two annual reopenings permitted by the 3-year agree ment scheduled to expire June 15, 1962, the PMA and the ILWU, on May 17, I960, began negotiations on wages, hours, and particularly on the introduction of labor saving machinery and improved work methods. In accordance with the program adopted at the April caucus, union negotiators presented a series of demands including general wage increases ranging from 6 to 16 cents an hour and reduction, from 11 to 10 hours, in the maximum number of allowable shift hours preceding ship sailings. At the initial session, the employers abandoned their position on how to distribute the gains that were expected from the intro duction of mechanization on the West Coast docks. Since the first discussion in the early 1950’ s, the employers had offered to share the gains of mechanization. Specifically, in exchange for a free hand to increase operating efficiency through the introduction and utilization of labor saving devices and the elimination of r e strictive work practices, the employers offered a guaranteed wage that would protect the workers against a reduction in job opportunities. This new approach was acceptable to the union, but the parties were unable to agree on details of what was being ’’bought” and what the price was to be. In order to facilitate agreement on wages, the parties agreed to dis continue, until July 1, negotiations on mechanization and reduction in the maxi mum number of hours1 work on shifts preceding ship sailings. They a g r e e d that after this date either party could request arbitration of these issues. On June 13, I960, the negotiators agreed to an 8-cent an hour general wage raise. Negotiations on the remaining unresolved issues continued, and on July 12, the ILWU dropped its maximum shift hours demand. A supplemental agreement on mechanization and modernization, de scribed by the parties as ’’epochal in the annals of industrial relations, " was reached on October 18, I960. The settlement established a mechanization fund totaling $29 million, including the $ 1. 5 million agreed to in 1959, to be financed by employer contributions over a 572-year period. The purpose of the fund was to indemnify fully registered longshoremen for expected reductions in work op portunities resulting from the introduction of automated equipment and changes in loading practices. The fund was to be used to guarantee fully registered longshoremen minimum weekly earnings when hours of work dropped below a specified level solely because of mechanization, finance early retirement or lump sum payments at normal retirement, and provide additional death and disability benefits. The settlement also prohibited layoffs resulting from automation and protected long shoremen against ’’individual speedup” and infringement of safety rules. In exchange for these benefits, the employers were relieved of some restrictions in the contract governing sling loads, multiple handling, and number and size of gangs. 6 The maximum weight limitations of 2, 100 pounds per sling load on a number of commodities were removed where there had been a change in opera tions, but were continued where sling loads were hand built and manually moved. The sling load limit for commodities not specifically covered was that which was safe and practical. However, the union retained the right to file a griev ance on any particular operation that in their opinion imposed an onerous work load. Multiple handling of cargo was eliminated, permitting delivery of general cargo directly from the truck to the ship, or the reverse without being depalletized and repalletized. Previously, cargo had to be placed on the surface of the pier and put on another pallet before it could be loaded aboard ship. In stead of the customary eight longshoremen (four working while four rested) as signed to each hatch of a ship during loading and unloading, four men would constitute the minimum gang. However, the minimum gang was to be increased, if necessary, when mechanical equipment was being used. If manual handling of cargo was involved, six holdmen were to be used when unloading the cargo from vessel and eight holdmen when loading a vessel. These complements were ex clusive of other gang members, such as, hatch tenders, winch drivers and front men. The settlement also permitted employers to install laborsaving machinery free of union opposition. The contract scheduled to expire June 15, 1962, was extended to July 1, 1966, with provision for annual reopenings on any item except pensions and mechanization, on June 15 of each year. Pensions were reviewable on July 1, 1961. The ILiWIPs bargaining program for changes in the basic contract for 1961 was adopted at its caucus in April of that year and formal negotiations be gan on May 17. At the initial meeting the union presented 15 proposed contract changes. Economic demands consisted of a 10-cent-an-hour raise in basic wage rates, an additional adjustment of 10 cents an hour for holdmen, and higher penalty cargo rates. Supplemental benefits sought were the establishment of 8 paid holidays, an extension of allowances for time lost because of industrial injury to 200 hours, and liberalized vacation eligibility. The PMA was also asked to guarantee the existing health and welfare benefits until July 1, 1966, extend welfare coverage to widows and dependents of deceased employees, in crease contributions to the welfare plan by 2 cents an hour, and raise pensions by $25 a month. Three days later, the employers proposed continuation of the existing contract without change. When negotiations failed to produce agreement by June 1, all economic issues except pensions (which the parties preferred to attempt to resolve by ne gotiation) were submitted to arbitration. On June 8, the arbitrator awarded an hourly wage increase of 6 cents and amended the vacation eligibility provision to include up to 100 hours sick leave as time worked. An additional 2-cent-an-hour employer contribution to the welfare plan also was granted. All other union demands were denied. Negotiations on increase pension benefits continued until settlement was reached late in July. It provided for an increase of $15 a month in normal and disability retirement benefits for qualified workers. 2 Negotiations under the second reopening started in mid-May 1962. The union requested a substantial wage increase, a reduction in regular shift hours from 8 to 7 without loss of pay, liberalized vacations, increased subsistence 2 The terms of the award were incorporated into an agreement dated June 16, 1961. 7 pay, improved welfare benefits, and additional employer contributions to the welfare fund. The employers offered a moderate wage raise, but asked for more control over the number of times the union could call stop-work meetings, and changes in provisions relating to the 4-hour minimum work guarantee and jobs of short duration. After almost 6 weeks of negotiations, agreement was reached on June 22, 1962. The settlement, covering about 17, 000 employees, provided a 44-cent-anhour increase over a 3-year period, with 18 cents effective July 30, 1962, and 13 cents effective on June 17, 1963, and June 15, 1964. In addition, the agree ment liberalized vacations and revised the 4-hour minimum work guarantee pro vision. Subsistence payments and employer contributions to the welfare plan were increased, and requirements for disability and normal pension benefits were liberalized. Contrary to past practice, the amended 3-year contract could be re opened only on welfare contributions on June 15, of 1963 and 1964. However, on June 15, 1965, either party could reopen any contract provision except pen sions and mechanization. 1965 Preparation for the scheduled 1965 contract review was initiated by the traditional Longshore, Shipclerks and Walking Bosses caucus in mid-April. The caucus considered numerous proposals for improving earnings, working condi tions and the post-employment living conditions, developed a bargaining program, and elected a committee that was instructed to exert every effort to make the program a reality. Negotiations were opened by the union with the Pacific Mari time Association about a month later, on May 17. Chief union demands consisted of a 21-cent-an-hour general wage raise, plus an increase in skill differential. The union also wanted to overhaul the penalty cargo list or establish a new one to make it more compatible to changed work conditions. The employers were also asked to make a start toward elimina tion of extended hours of work. Additional union proposals involved revisions in the vacation provision to provide for an increase in the number of weeks of vacation as well as higher vacation allowances. A wide variety of changes were also sought in health and welfare benefits. These demands included prepaid medical care; expanded cov erage under the existing medical plan; broadening of insurance benefits for nonoccupational injuries; dental care for employees; and medical coverage for de pendents while attending college. Further, the union requested a reopening of the pension agreement. However, the pension agreement could be reopened before July 1, 1966, only with consent of the association. Pension improvements sought were higher monthly payments for those already retired as well as for those retiring in the future and a lifetime annuity for pensioners1 widows amounting to 50 percent of their husband^ normal benefit. The association’ s list of demands included revisions in clauses governing: Travel time, meal hour, four minimum guarantee and continuous operations. To further assure a full work force the employers also proposed changes in the scheduled days off and vacation provisions. 8 June 15, U n der t e r m s o f the e x is tin g c o n t r a c t , i f a g r e e m e n t w a s not r e a c h e d b y a ll u n r e s o lv e d is s u e s w e r e to be r e f e r r e d to the C o a s t a r b it r a t o r . After 21 days of continuous negotiations, a settlement, highlighted by a clause prohibiting ,,moonlightingn and a substantial increase in pension benefits, was signed on June 8. A wage boost, effective June 14, 1965, increased long shoremen’ s basic straight-time hourly rates by 6 cents. Under the new provisions, longshoremen holding more than one job would be "deregistered11 unless they gave up any nonlongshore jobs. Registration was required for a longshoreman to receive work. Normal pension benefits, in cluding payments to those already retired, were raised from $115 to $165 a month. Payments for disability and reduced benefits were increased propor tionately. Employer contributions to the health and welfare plan were increased by .6 cents an hour (total 21. 1 cents) to provide higher hospital room and board benefits under insured plans, and welfare coverage was extended to widows of pensioners while receiving PMA-ILWU pension benefits. The settlement also called for revisions in the call-in pay provision and added two 15-minute paid relief periods.
