Job Security and Compensation.

Collective Bargaining: Job security
Full-time tenured faculty are assured of their workload—even if
enrollment in their classes does not fill, they have bumping rights to
displace part-time faculty. Their tenured status protects them from
layoffs; only under declaration of a financial emergency are tenured
faculty jobs endangered.

Part-time faculty, by contrast, are not assured of their jobs beyond
the current term, are often not provided a contract until classes are
well underway, and are typically hired on a term-by-term basis. While
some colleges have a hiring preference for some part-time faculty
(e.g, “Associate faculty,” “Priority Hiring List,” “Part-time File,”
etc.), such status is not job security nor reasonable assurance of
reemployment as testified by the fact that these part-time/adjunct
faculty are eligible for unemployment between terms. Parttime/adjunct faculty are considered temporary, probationary
employees even after decades of service.

overtime—called overloads or moonlighting—as a way of earning

full range of teaching without compensation. Most colleges have not

workload cap (e.g., no more than 85% of full-time).
