As in previous years, the Bureau has assembled a variety of information on anticipated union contract adjustments in this calendar year. Major situations by company and union are identified in which, during 1978, contracts will terminate, deferred wage increases will become due, changes in the Consumer Price Index will be reviewed, and contracts will be reopened. These data take on added dimensions as timely indicators because of some of the important movements that might be expected in an economy still subject to high unemployment and inflationary pressures. This bulletin combines articles which appeared in the December 1977 and January 1978 issues of the Monthly Labor Review (with minor revisions) and the Bureau’s listing of major agreements which expire during the year. Each contract covers 1,000 workers or more. Virtually all of these agreements are on file with the Bureau’s Division of Industrial Relations and are open to public inspection. In addition, information was taken from published sources for additional situations where agreements are due to expire. Table 9 lists agreements scheduled to expire in 1978 by month and table 10 arranges them by industry. Tables 11 and 12 present additional information taken from published sources, also by month and industry. Users should refer to appendix A for a list of common abbreviations; to appendix B for codes used in identifying the entries by industry, State, union, and employer unit; and to appendix C for a technical note on the data shown in tables 9-12. Table 13 lists 1978 contract reopenings (for wages, benefits, and working conditions) by month for selected collective bargaining agreements each covering 1,000 workers or more. In several instances, tables 9-12 may list agreements and situations where the parties settle in advance of the scheduled expiration date, having been negotiating well before that date. However, they will still be listed under their original expiration dates. Material in this publication is in the public domain and may be reproduced without permission of the Federal Government. Please credit the Bureau of Labor Statistics and cite the name and number of the publication. This bulletin was prepared jointly by Douglas R. LeRoy, in the Division of Trends in Employee Compensation, and Lena W. Bolton, in the Division of Industrial Relations.
