Collective Bargaining Agreements (CBA) Ending discrimination in benefits may be delayed until the expiration of a City Contractor's Current collective bargaining agreement(s) where all of the following conditions have been met: 1. The provision of benefits is governed by one or more collective bargaining agreement(s); 2. The City Contractor takes all reasonable measures to end discrimination in benefits either by requesting that the Unions involved agree to reopen the agreements in order for the City Contractor to take whatever steps necessary to end discrimination in benefits or by ending discrimination in benefits without reopening the collective bargaining agreements; and 3. In the event that the City Contractor cannot end discrimination in benefits despite taking all reasonable measures to do so, the City Contractor provides a cash equivalent to eligible employees for whom benefits are not available. Unless otherwise authorized in writing by the Procurement Director, this cash equivalent payment must begin at the time the Unions refuse to allow the collective bargaining agreements to be reopened, or in any case no longer than three (3) months from the date the contract with the City is entered into.
