HEAT (Higher Education Action Team) panel:
Two-tier contracts are detrimental to workers. In our higher education institutions, they harm both teachers and their students.
This Labor Fest panel will discuss efforts to end two-tier contracts in which equally qualified and experienced part-time instructors teaching the same classes as full-time teachers with tenure are often paid poverty-level wages, and many have no access to healthcare benefits through their college employers.
Also covered will be statewide efforts to bring about the desired changes, the role of teacher unions, and a description of the Vancouver Community College where equal pay per class, equal benefits and equal job security have actually been achieved.
