Preface

This bulletin is one o f a series prepared by the Bureau of Labor Statistics that traces changes in wage scales and related benefits negotiated by individual employers or combi­nations of employers with a union or group of unions. 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 deal only with selected features o f collective bargaining or wage determination. They are intended primarily as a tool for research, analysis, and wage administration. References to job security, grievance procedures, methods of piece-rate adjustments, and similar matters are omitted.

This wage chronology summarizes changes in wage rates and related compensation practices negotiated by the Pacific Gas and Electric Company with the International Brotherhood o f Electrical Workers since 1943. This bulletin replaces Wage Chronology: Pacific Gas and Electric Company, 1 9 4 3 -6 6 , published as BLS Bulletin 1499. Materials previously published have been supplemented in this bulletin by contract changes negotiated in 1966—71. The earlier texts generally are included as they were originally published.

Increases in wages or supplementary compensation scheduled for introduction after August 15, 1971, are affected by current wage stabilization policies. Changes are shown in this chronology as approved by the Pay Board or, the absence of a Pay Board decision, as negotiated by the parties..

The section for 1966—72 was prepared in the Division of Trends in Employee Compensation by John U. Burgan.

Introduction

June 1943—April 1951

The Pacific Gas and Electric Co. generates and sells electricity and purchases and sells gas, water, and steam in an area covering, in 1951, 89,000 square miles across California’s Central Valley. With its 75 hydroelectric and steam generating plants, in addition to power from Shasta and Keswick Dams, the company had a gross normal operating capacity o f 3,049,400 kilowatts. Its 2 million customers were served by 17,000 workers. Changes in the' wage rates and working conditions of the majority of these employees, namely those who are rep­resented by the International Brotherhood o f Electrical Workers— AFL (IBEW), are covered in this chronology.

Prior to 1945, natural wells in California were the main source of the company’s gas supply. Then growing requirements for natural gas made it necessary to lay 2,100 miles o f pipeline (500 miles o f it within California) to bring in fuel from western Texas, New Mexico, and southwestern Colorado. In 1951, this line carried in 400 million cubic feet o f gas per day for use in the central California area. It was supplemented by more than13,000 miles of gas transmission and distribution lines across the Central Valley.

The company’s operating, maintenance, and construc­tion employees were represented by the International Brotherhood o f Electrical Workers— AFL (IBEW). Or­ganization of the employees began during 1937, when the Utility Workers Union of America—CIO (UWUA)— then known as the United Electrical and Radio Workers of America—CIO and later known as the Utility Workers Organizing Committee—CIO— lost an election to the California Gas and Electric Employee’s Union (Ind.) to represent the company’s entire force of outside em­ployees. On the original ballot the IBEW was also listed, but it withdrew before the election was held and did not appear again in the bargaining history until 1943. In June 1942 the UWUA was certified by the National Labor Relations Board as agent for all employees in one of the company’s geographic divisions. Between July 1942 and January 1943 the UWUA was certified to rep­resent the same group of employees in three other divisions and in the central supply department. The first UWUA agreement was signed in December 1942, with

five interim agreements leading up to the basic agreement of August 15, 1944. Annual agreements were negotiated each year thereafter until 1950, when the IBEW won the right to negotiate for these employees.

In June 1943, the company and the IBEW signed the first agreement covering the operating, maintenance, and construction workers in nine divisions not represented by the UWUA. In May 1944 they signed an agreement covering clerical workers in five divisions. A series of elections was held between that time and 1950, when the IBEW became the sole bargaining agent for 11,700 of the company’s 17,000 workers in the 13 geographic divisions.

Toward the end of the 1943—51 period, wage pro­visions had been embodied in separate agreements from those dealing with supplementary benefits. The agree­ment dealing with related wage provisions was made ef­fective September 1, 1950, but was superseded by the wage agreement effective April 1 ,1951, which remained in force until March 31, 1952.

In the wage agreements, progression from the mini­mum or starting to maximum rates is governed by well- defined schedules. These schedules specifically set forth the length of time required to move from one step to another as well as the salary rate applicable to each upward step. The length of time necessary to reach the maximum varies with the occupation, resulting in 12 progression schedules. (See table B -l, footnote 3.) The wage schedule in the 1951 agreement is divided into three groups: (1) Operations, maintenance, and con­struction employees in all divisions and building depart­ment employees, (2) production employees in the gas supply and control department, and (3) production em­ployees in the central supply department.

For the purpose o f applying related wage practices, employees are classified, not only into these three categories, but by types of working schedule, the con­tinuity of these schedules, the type o f service rendered, and place o f performance of work.

The changes in wages and related practices for operating, maintenance, and construction workers (other than the general construction department) are those included in the IBEW agreements from 1943—52. The

changes resulting from UWUA—CIO negotiations were not reported since that organization did not represent any o f these employees. Provisions of the IBEW agree­ment reported for 1943 do not necessarily indicate changes in previous conditions of employment.

November 1952

The wage agreement between the Pacific Gas and Electric Co. and the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (AFL), in effect since January 1951, expired on March 31, 1952. The agreement covering working conditions, effective September 1, 1950, ex­pired August 31, 1952.

Prior to expiration of the latter agreement, a tentative “basis of settlement” was signed on August 15, 1952. This understanding provided the basic conditions of the new agreement, which was signed on November 17,1952, after extended negotiations as to wording. Its terms pro­vided for general wage increases retroactive to April 1, and September 1, 1952, as well as for higher shift differ­entials, holiday pay, meal allowances, and other changes.

The contract permitted a reopening 30 days before March 1, 1953, for negotiating wage adjustments equal to any change in the cost of living from September 1, 1952, to March 1, 1953. However, since there was only a slight decrease in the Consumer Price Index during the specified period, no changes in basic rates o f pay were made.

September 1953—June 1960

Wage provisions of the 1952 agreement between the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) and the Pacific Gas and Electric Co. were amended five times in subsequent years— in 1953, 1954, 1956, 1957, and 1959. During this period, health, welfare, and pension benefits were also increased, and, in 1959, a savings fund plan was put into effect.

Each amendment provided for a general wage increase and, except in 1957, for further job classification or inequity adjustments. In addition, the amendment a- dopted tm August 31, 1954, increased the maximum accumulation o f paid sick leave. The one dated July 1, 1956, provided for supplemental benefits for temporary disability caused by industrial accidents and extended the contract to clerks in offices of electric department foremen. The 1957 amendment improved pay for work on holidays and, beginning in 1958, liberalized vacation benefits; it also provided for a general wage increase on July 1, 1958, as well as in 1957. The settlement reached in August 1959, but retroactive to July 1 o f that year, not only provided for a general wage increase but also

increased shift premiums.1 The amended contract cover­ing wages continues in effect until June 30, 1960, and from year to year thereafter unless written notice of termination is given 60 days earlier. (The pension plan continued until January 1, 1964.)

July 1960—June 1966

A general wage increase of 4Vi percent, averaging $4.96 a week, was negotiated by the Pacific Gas and Electric Co. and the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) in 1960. The negotiations began in May and by mid-July the 2-year agreement, covering some 13,600 employees in northern and central California, had been ratified by members of IBEW, retroactive to July 1. The settlement included some job reclassifications and provided for further con­sideration of the general wage level through a reopening of the agreement on July 1 of the following year.

Among other improvements in the contract was an adjustment in subsistence pay for general construction department employees unable to work because of in­clement weather.2

In 1960, active and retired workers were offered the option of continued coverage under the hospital plan in effect (Pacific Service Employees Hospital Plan) or new coverage under the Kaiser Foundation Health Plan. The company’s contributions to the hospital plans were increased by 70 cents a month per employee, effective August 1,1960, with an additional 30 cents on January 1, 1961.

The 1961 wage reopening of the agreement resulted in increases averaging $4.72 a week, effective July 1, 1961.

Pension benefits were supplemented on January 1, 1961, to provide a minimum annual retirement income for employees who retired before that date with at least 15 years of service. With this addition, benefits equaled one-half the average annual earnings in the last 5 years, reduced by 1 percent for each year o f service under 40. Later in the year, a third health plan, California Physicians’ Service (Blue Shield), was made available to the company’s employees.

In mid-August 1962, the members of IBEW ratified a 1-year agreement that provided wage increases averag­ing $4.96 a week, retroactive to July 1,1962. Additional

1 Expense allowances fo r general construction w orkers were also liberalized. Supplem entary benefits fo r these w orkers where d ifferent from those fo r o the r w orkers covered by the contract are n o t included in th is chronology.

Form erly, provisions relating specifically to these em ­ployees were n o t repo rted in th is chronology. Beginning w ith the 1959 agreem ent, however, provisions affecting em ployees in the general construction departm ent will be included where they differ from the provision fo r o the r w orkers covered by the agreem ent. The tables have been revised to reflect this change.

adjustments were made in the wage schedules of about 35 key job classifications, involving some 2,400 em­ployees. Premium pay for the second and third shifts was raised 1 cent, to 9 and 13 cents an hour, respectively, and the contract’s provisions with respect to meals and mealtime pay were extended to employees who regularly resided in facilities maintained by the company. Paid sick leave provisions were liberalized and improvements were made in benefits o f the Pacific Service Employees Hospital Plan.

After extended bargaining in 1963, agreement on con­tract changes was reached on July 19 and ratified by the members of IBEW in mid-August. The settlement covered a 3-year period, beginning July 1, 1963, and provided general wage increases of 3.75 percent effective on that date, and 3.25 percent effective July 1, 1964, and again on July 1, 1965. Special adjustments were made in the wage schedules of more than 80 job classifications, af­fecting approximately 4,000 employees. Shift premiums were again increased.

Four-week vacations became effective on January 1, 1964, for employees with 20 years’ service, and 8 paid holidays were guaranteed by the agreement. Company contributions to the hospital plans were increased in three annual steps beginning on August 1, 1963. An additional life insurance benefit was provided totally disabled employees (aged 60 or over) in 1964, and im­provements were made in the retirement and savings plans.

On January 1, 1965, the basic health benefits o f the Pacific Service Employees Hospital Plan were discon­tinued for active employees, and its coverage converted to a comprehensive major medical expense plan.

About 14,300 employees in the company’s California service area were covered by the 1963 agreement, which expired on June 30, 1966.

July 1966- June 1970

A 4-year agreement was negotiated in 1966 by rep­resentatives of the International Brotherhood of Elec­trical Workers (IBEW) and the Pacific Gas and Electric Co. The pact, covering some 17,000 workers in northern California, provided a wage increase of 4 percent plus special adjustments amounting to 1.76 percent when averaged over the entire bargaining unit, effective July 1, 1966, and an additional 4-percent increase effective July 1, 1967. A third 4-percent increase was agreed upon, to be effective July 1, 1968, with the provision that wage negotiations could be reopened and a new figure reached if the BLS Consumer Price Index for each of the months o f March, April, and May 1968 were more than 4.5 index points above its level in June 1966.

(This, in fact, did occur and a new wage increase o f 6 percent was negotiated and made effective July 1,1968.) Provision had been made for a wage reopener in the final year o f the 4-year pact. Wage negotiations in 1969 produced a 6.5-percent increase, bringing the total in­crease in wages to 22.26 percent over the 4 years o f the contract.

The 1966 agreement introduced a service anniversary vacation provision, effective in 1968. It granted an ad­ditional 5 days o f vacation to an employee in his 5 th, 10th and 15th years of service and in each succeeding year in which he completes 5 more years of service with the company. Shift premium pay was increased to 15 cents an hour for the second shift and 20 cents an hour for the third. Provisions for overtime pay, holiday pay, paid sick leave, and subsistence pay also were liberalized. A new provision was negotiated to compensate em­ployees for certain expenses incurred while involved in company training programs.

In 1968, employer contributions to health plans were changed to a percentage basis. The contribution was to be 60 percent of the total cost in 1968, 66.66 percent in 1969, and 75 percent beginning in 1970.

In 1969, changes were negotiated in the Voluntary Wage Benefit Plan. Employee contributions to the plan were increased to 1 percent of the first $7,400 of annual salary; also, the maximum benefit was raised to $87 a week for quarterly earnings of $2,050 and over, and the hospital benefit was increased to $35 a day.

A long-term disability plan was established in 1969 to provide income protection for employees during periods of disability lasting more than 6 months. The company-financed plan provided the amount necessary to give the employee income equal to 50 percent of his regular earnings by supplementing payments from existing plans and social security benefits.

Life insurance benefits also were increased. The benefit amount was to equal two times the employee’s basic annual pay, and paid life insurance for retired employees was increased to $2,000. Methods of deter­mining amounts of benefits under the pension plan were changed, and a variable annuity option was added. Under this plan, part o f pension benefits would be invested and total pension payments would vary with the return on the investments. The new savings plan pro­vision allowed an employee to elect to contribute 1, 2, 3, or 4 percent of his pay to the Diversified Investment Fund.

The agreement was scheduled to terminate on June 30, 1970, subject to the wage reopening provisions described above.

July 1970—June 1972

Pacific Gas and Electric Co.— IBEW negotiations in 1970 produced a 3-year contract on July 1, 1970. The pact called for a first-year wage increase of 7.5 percent, effective July 1, 1970, and a deferred increase of from 6 to 7.5 percent, depending on the change in the BLS Consumer Price Index, to be effective on July 1, 1971. The figure as finally computed was 6 percent.

A major achievement o f the union negotiating team was the establishment of a modified agency shop. This provided that every employee, once he attains regular employment status, must either become a member of the union or tender a registration fee and monthly agency fee to the union in lieu of an initiation fee and union dues. Also included in the agreement were man­agement rights and arbitration amendments which had been sought by Pacific Gas and Electric Company negotiators.

Another significant feature o f the 1970 contract was the establishment of a company-financed dental plan which was to provide partial payment for dental costs. Services covered by the plan included: Diagnostic care, oral surgery, restorative dentistry, endodontics, periodontics, and prosthodontic services. An additional paid holiday (employee’s birthday) raised the total to9. An educational assistance program was established paying up to 90 percent o f an employee’s tuition costs, provided that the course taken had direct application to the employee’s present job or line of advancement and the employee obtained a grade of “C” or better in the course.

Additional changes included reduced eligibility re­quirements for 15 and 20 days’ leave (to 8 and 18 years of service, respectively), and reimbursements for meals and moving expenses.

In 1971, changes were made in benefits under the three medical plans available to employees. Hospitali­zation benefits under the Pacific Service Employees Hospital Plan were increased to $1,000 plus 80 percent

of hospital charges in excess of $1,000. The Kaiser Foundation Health Plan increased the duration of in- hospital care benefits to 150 days per illness per year at full coverage, plus an added 215 days at reduced rates. The plan also was to pay for all drugs, medicines, in­jections, and special nursing care, when hospitalized, for up to 150 days. Another new provision applied to medical coverage outside o f the service area o f the plan. Up to $3,000 of medical costs incurred before a mem­ber’s condition permitted his travel to a Kaiser Found­ation medical facility were to be covered.

The California Physicians’ Service (Blue Shield) Plan listed several changes in its coverage. Inhospital benefits were extended to cover 365 days in a semiprivate room, ambulance service benefits were increased to $50 ($25 for maternity), surgical benefits were extended to cover the services of a podiatrist, and a supplemental accident plan was added which paid up to $500 for expenses incurred within 90 days of an accident in excess of amounts allowed by the accident plan. Diagnostic X-rays and clinical tests were to be covered for up to $100 per year and nonsurgical doctors’ services were paid for 365 days. Additional increases were made with respect to confinement in extended care facilities. Maximum pay­ment for room, meals, and dietary services was increased to $20 a day, and the maximum physiotherapy payment to $50 a day.

As of January 1, 1971, employee contributions to the retirement plan were to be reduced to % percent of the ’ first $3,600 of covered compensation, and 1% percent of covered compensation over $3,600. By January 1, 1973, however, the plan was to be entirely company- financed.

The 1970 agreement, covering approximately 17,000 workers, was to remain in effect until June 30, 1973. There was a wage reopening provision which allowed renewed wage talks in the third year of the agreement. The following tables bring the Pacific Gas and Electric Company wage chronology up to date through June 30, 1972.

1 A ll job titles and department assignments prior to 1953 are as of the Sept. 1, 1950, and Jan. 1, 1951, wage schedules; thereafter, they are as shown in the wage schedule of the e f­fective agreem ent.

2 Where only the maximum rate is shown, a single job rate was in effect. In the case of first operators, the range of rates in the column for July 1, 1956, does not indicate m ini­mum and maximum rates but rather the fact that some stations w ere transferred to one rate schedule and others to a different schedule.

3 P rogress ion from the minimum to the maximum job rate follows the schedule listed below. The length of the progression schedule is indicated by a footnote in the maximum rate c o l­umn for 1944 except where it was changed during the period covered by this table; in such cases, the appropriate footnotes are shown both for 1944 and for the date on which a change in the progression schedule becam e effective.

7 On Jan. 30, 1952, the NLRB ruled that "co llectors and m eter readers" were c lerica l em ployees. W orkers in these occupations therefore were transferred to the c lerica l unit.8 Em ployees in these occupations were reclassified to "e lectrician s" and "e lectrician s, appren tice."9 Rates based on various types of work perform ed.

10 Spread, nonprogression. W orkers received the designated station rate plus a percentage of the difference between the rate of the station and the maximum of the spread. When 50 percent or m ore of time during the previous year was spent on service work, employees received maximum of spread.

11 Footnote 10 applies, except that no minimum pay was stipulated.

Wage Chronologies

The following wage chronologies are currently being maintained. Bulletins or reports for which a price is indi­cated are available from the Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C., 20402, or from the Department of Labor’s Bureau of Labor Statistics Regional sales offices which are listed on the inside back cover. (Order by check or money order; do not send cash or stamps.) Those publications for which no price is indicated are not available from the Superintendent of Documents, but may be obtained without charge, as long as a supply is available, from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Washington, D.C. 20212, or from the Bureau’s regional offices. Items indicated as out of print may be available for reference in leading public, college, or uni­versity libraries, or the Bureau’s regional offices.

Before July 1965, basic wage chronologies and their supplements were published in the M onthly la b o r R eview and released as Bureau reports. Wage chronologies published later are available only in bulletins (and their supple­ments). A summary of general wage changes and new or changed working practices will be added to the bulletins as new contracts are negotiated.
