COLLECTIVE BARGAINING AGREEMENT Between NEW YORK UNIVERSITY And LOCAL ONE SECURITY OFFICERS UNION
July 1, 2001 - June 20, 2006

ARTICLE 21 - SUBCONTRACTING

The Employer shall not make any agreement or arrangement for the performance of work and/or for the categories of work heretofore performed by Security Officers covered by this Agreement except within the provisions and limitations set forth below:

A. The Employer may contract out, without restriction; temporary work such as security for special events, buildings under construction, and funds accumulated during peak periods; and security work at the following locations: Sterling Forest, Midtown Center, Norman Thomas High School, D'Agostino Hall, Mercer Street Residence, and Silver Towers.

B. In addition, the Employer may contract out for up to a total of five percent of the full time employees plus the full time equivalent of part time employees (computed by dividing the base hours of all part time employees by 40) in the bargaining unit. For example, if there are 200 full time employees in the bargaining unit (including the full time equivalent of part time employees), the Employer may contract out for a total number of hours equal to 10 full time positions (i.e., 400 hours) per week. Overtime will not be counted in computing the full time equivalent of full time and part time employees. The computation will only count full time equivalents in units of 20. For example, if there are 219 full time employees in the bargaining unit, the Employer may still only contract out 400 hours per week. If there are 220, it could contract out 440 hours per week. No work covered by this agreement may be contracted out if any bargaining unit employee is on layoff. Except in an emergency, no non-bargaining unit security officers may be used in a student housing facility under this paragraph B. No bargaining unit employee will be removed from a post and replaced by a contract guard, unless the bargaining unit employee's assignment was a temporary one of thirty days or less. Any contract guards stationed inside or adjacent to any NYU bookstore must be counted in computing the number of hours permitted under this paragraph B. The Employer will give the Union a weekly list showing the contract companies used, the number of guards used, the hours worked and the location where the guards worked.
