Summary
(1) Existing law establishes the California Community Colleges under the administration of the Board of Governors of the California Community Colleges. Existing law requires the board of governors to adopt regulations that establish minimum standards regarding the percentage of hours of credit instruction that full-time instructors are required to teach. This bill would prohibit a full-time faculty member, as defined, for a community college district from being assigned a workload that includes overload or extra assignments if the overload or extra assignments exceed 50% of a full-time workload in a semester or quarter that commences on or after January 1, 2014. The bill would provide that this prohibition shall not apply to a summer or intersession term, community colleges with fewer than 3,000 full-time equivalent students, or to certain programs, as specified. The bill would also provide that the prohibition would not supersede the pertinent requirements of a collective bargaining agreement containing restrictions regarding limitations on overload or extra assignments that is in effect when this bill becomes operative. With respect to a community college district with a collective bargaining agreement that, as of January 1, 2014, prohibits a full-time faculty member from being assigned a workload that includes overload or extra assignments if the overload or extra assignments exceed 50% of a full-time workload, the prohibition in the bill would become operative on January 1, 2015. The prohibition in the bill would also apply to the workload of supervisory or managerial personnel of a community college district who are performing faculty work that is allowed under an applicable collective bargaining agreement. To the extent that this bill would impose new duties on community college districts, it would constitute a state-mandated local program. (2) The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates determines that the bill contains costs mandated by the state, reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to these statutory provisions.
