Part-time adult school teachers: collective bargaining.

Existing law classifies a person as a temporary employee if the person is employed to teach adults for not more than 60% of the hours per week considered a full-time assignment for permanent employees having comparable duties, and prohibits such an employee from becoming a probationary employee for purposes of gaining permanent status. This bill would make the right of certain temporary employees serving as part-time adult school teachers, as defined, to earn and retain annual reappointment rights a mandatory subject of collective bargaining with respect to any new or successor contract between a school district and the exclusive bargaining representative of the certificated employees of that district on or after January 1, 2010.
