In fact the union has itself based its requests of raises on the market so what the union is effectively saying you can look at the market if it produces a wage increase, but if it doesnt then we dont look at the market. That runs counter to what they agreed to in negotiations. Its certainly not consistent and not with our obligations under the charter. With your permission i would like to touch on a couple other points. Please continue. If i drink water is that like the republican okay. Sorry. ...

Earned. Notice its not much higher than 1955. Men worked in 1200 classes and women were concentrated under 500 classes. The conclusion of that report said mens jobs pay more with comparable education and experience. The context at the time there was a Supreme Court case and they ruled title seven covers wage discrimination whether or not the jobs are exactly the same or not, so it was considered a landmark decision. However, in the application of this court case since 1981 there has been a narro...

By minorities and women judged to be of equal in value and higher pay classes occupied strongly by non minority males so that was proposition h. In the same year the Mayors Task Force issued their report and seiu and the city came to an agreement how to implement pay equity. In 1994 to 99 there was a move to collective bargaining where discussion about pay equity moved into a negotiation between the union and the department of Human Resources Employee Relations unit. Meanwhile in 1998 San Franci...

Prop h, so with collective bargaining came a complete aggregation of the prior salaries standardization ordinances with the exception of the rns and the transit operators. In other words, not part of the 1996 charter. Okay. Thank you. So to the extent im sorry. We spoke on monday and on monday you said that the proposals that you have preserve comparable worth and that was one thing that we asked you to come back and tell us exactly how that has happened but knowing there are different standards...

Hard to reconstruct what it is because even if one wanted to do a historical look its whatever we say it is then. Well, the jobs have changed. Even if we have said a laundry worker is equivalent to a Data Entry Operator. The laundry worker doesnt exist anymore and it was merged into another classification. The Data Entry Operator doesnt exist anymore. We had 20 years of collective bargaining and unions making different decision how to spend the money and seiu decided to do one thing and they had...

Comparable education and experience. The context at the time there was a Supreme Court case and they ruled title seven covers wage discrimination whether or not the jobs are exactly the same or not, so it was considered a landmark decision. However, in the application of this court case since 1981 there has been a narrowing of the application. A lot of cases have used the bennett amendment to justify pay differentials based on gender, and actually in fact there have been few successful cases of ...

Has raised as you know, i have a copy of the contract language. Can you put that up . Sorry just before to finish up. I just want to say that the topic of the hearing i completely agree and want to thank supervisor avalos for calling it and i fully support obviously pay equity and comparable worth. The line of question there is if were making sure were at market we want to understand the implications of how that affects our gender or ethic classes of our employees but i want to get a sense of wh...

To follow the standard in the charter and also in the labor contract which does not speak to comparable worth t speaks to cost of living, recruitment and retention, difficult of filling positions and the market, and in fact the union has itself based its requests of raises on the market so what the union is effectively saying you can look at the market if it produces a wage increase, but if it doesnt then we dont look at the market.

Began in 1942 in terms of general order 16 issued by the labor board. Basically the federal government decided to adjust wages for women to equal men doing work of comparable work and quality. You can imagine when the men were at war the women were doing the work. The order remedied was a job assessment to determine the value of the work so thats really the origin of the discussion. In 1955 the u. S. Census bureau reported that women earned 64 of what men earned. In 1963 there was a federal equa...
