1000.00000 – SCOPE OF REPRESENTATION
1000.02026 – Contracting Out

A union proposal containing a blanket prohibition on subcontracting unit work, including contracting out for reasons other than labor costs, is outside the scope of representation. Management decisions to contract out unit work for reasons other than labor costs are nonnegotiable, but the effects of such decisions are within scope.
