Labor Agreements The ILWU-PMA coastwise agreements expired on July 1, 2022, at 5 p.m. Coast Agreements EFFECTIVE Longshore and Clerks' Agreement 7/1/14 * Walking Bosses and Foremen's Agreement 7/1/14 * * Extension signed on 5/7/2018 Labor Dispatch Work on the waterfront, both loading and unloading of ships and barges and in marine terminals, has historically been performed by a work force employed on a daily basis. A daily laborer, as contrasted with someone hired as a full-time or steady employee, is hired for a single work shift and, if needed, are required to return each day until a certain work task is completed. Daily employment allows the individual longshore employee, within certain limitations, the choice both of making himself or herself available for a work assignment on any given day and of taking a particular job for which he or she is qualified. Registration, dispatch and benefits eligibility rules specify minimum availability and work requirements that are expected of longshore registrants. At an increasing pace during the past several decades, more regular or steady employees have been added to company payrolls, but the majority of the work is still performed by registered members of the ILWU who are dispatched on a daily basis. Within the West Coast longshore industry the term casual identifies recognized workers dispatched to jobs who are not jointly registered longshore employees, clerks, or foremen. Casuals are dispatched only after all available Class "A" and Class "B" registrants have been dispatched. Working Times and Wage Rates The standard first and second work shifts are eight hours in length. The first shift normally begins at 0800, and the second shift begins at 1800. The standard third shift begins at 0230 or 0300 at the option of the employer and is generally five hours in duration. Meal time is one hour beginning at 1100, 1130, or 1200 on the first shift and beginning at 2200 or 2300 on the second shift. Employees are entitled to a 15-minute relief period around the midpoint of each work period. The straight time rate is to be paid for the first eight hours worked between 0800 and 1800 Monday through Friday. The second shift rate, which is 1.333 times the straight time rate, is to be paid for the first 8 hours worked on the second shift Monday through Friday.
