組合のとりくみ
賃金、諸手当、生活条件の向上を目指して
賃金、諸手当、福利厚生、大学運営等に関わる課題については、毎年春闘要求をとりまとめ、職員組合と調整を図った上で統一要求書として大学に提出し、交渉を行っています。要求書の作成にあたっては、組合員のアンケートや職場討議での組合員の意見などを吸い上げて作成しています。ここ数年は、大学財政に関する懇談を大学財務部と行い、大学財政について意見交換を行っています。
◯Aiming to improve salaries, various allowances and living conditions
Each year, the WTU summaries its demands concerning salaries, various allowances, benefits, university management, and so on for the year’s “shunto” spring collective bargaining. It makes necessary adjustments in coordination with the WSU, submits an integrated written request to the university and carries out negotiations based on it. This written request is created by reflecting the opinions of WTU members through a questionnaire survey, workplace discussions, and by other means. In the past several years, the WTU has consulted with the Financial Affairs Division to exchange opinions on the finances of the university.
教育条件・研究条件の改善
春闘要求とは別に毎年、教育研究条件に関する要求書をとりまとめ、大学に提出し交渉を行っています（教育研究条件に関する団体交渉）。ここ最近は、個人研究費の増額、特定課題研究助成費や学会出張補助費といった先生方の研究支援体制の改善・向上に向けて交渉を行っています。
Improving the conditions for education and research
Besides the above “shunto” collective bargaining request, another written request concerning the conditions for education and research activities is compiled and submitted to the university each year for negotiation (collective bargaining regarding the conditions for education and research). In recent years, in particular, the WTU has placed a special emphasis on negotiations aimed at improving the support systems for research activities of faculty members, such as increasing the amount of individual research allowances and enhancing the Tokutei Kadai grant and the Academic Conference Business Travel Subsidy system.
就業規則への取り組み
この間、大学は全ての職種に対して就業規則（本学では、「就業規程」と呼称)の整備を進めてきました。このうち、大学教員の専門業務型裁量労働制の導入、両高等学院教諭の変形労働時間制の導入にあたっては、これが成果主義を導入するものではないことを大学と確認し覚書を取り交わしました。
また、両高等学院の就業規程制定にあたっては、両学院の先生方の従来の研究条件について何ら変更を行うものではないことを確認し、覚書を取り交わしています。
Work regulations
Meanwhile, the university has been introducing work rules (which Waseda calls “work regulations”) for all job categories. When the discretionary working system for professional work for university faculty members and the variable working hour system for the teachers of the Senior High Schools were introduced respectively, the WTU confirmed with the university that introducing these systems did not mean adopting a merit system and exchanged memorandums.
The WTU also exchanged memorandums when work regulations were established for the Senior High Schools by confirming that the regulations would not affect the traditional research conditions for the teachers of the schools.
大学運営へのかかわり
大学運営や総長選挙制度についても組合は、必要と思われる事項については、資料請求などを行い、組合独自の視点から検討をおこなっています。場合によっては、春闘交渉の場などにおいて大学に説明を求めたり、組合の見解を表明することもあります。
ここ数年は、大学運営の根幹ともいうべき大学財政問題について、大学と懇談を行い、大学財政についての共通認識や不明点について質しています。
また、これまでの労使交渉を踏まえて、ガイドライン委員会（学外機関等との学術研究提携等に関する規則に基づく審査委員会）や安全衛生管理委員会、文化スポーツ協議会委員会には組合からも委員を選出しています。
Involvement in university management
The WTU also involves itself in university management and presidential elections by seeking information and examining the situation from its own point of view when it is considered necessary to do so. There are also cases in which the WTU asks the university to give explanations and expresses its own views in “shunto” collective bargaining sessions and other occasions.
In the past several years, in particular, the WTU has consulted with the university to confirm their common understanding and clarify points of uncertainty about the finances of the university, which form the core of university management.
In addition, members of the Guideline Committee (a review committee based on rules concerning academic research collaborations with external organizations, etc.), the Safety and Health Management Committee, and the Culture and Sports Council Committee are also selected from the WTU, reflecting the results of past labor-management negotiations.
私学助成の取り組み
教員組合の上部団体である東京私大教連は、国民の教育を受ける権利を守り、父母負担の軽減と私立大学の健全な発展をはかるために、私大助成運動は重要です。私大助成の大幅な増額をめざし、２５万人署名運動などの取り組みを行っています。
教員組合ではこの運動に賛同し、職員組合と共同して取り組みを行い、大学の協力も得ながら、新入生への父母への家計負担調査や署名のお願いを行っています。
Working towards increasing government subsidies for private universities
The Tokyo Federation of Private University Faculty and Staff Unions, the umbrella organization over the WTU, places special importance on campaigning for greater government subsidies for private universities with the goal of protecting people’s rights to education, reducing burdens on parents, and facilitating the wholesome development of private universities. The federation has been making efforts to get a substantial increase in the amount of subsidies for private universities, including organizing a petition drive with 250,000 signatures.
The WTU has also joined this cause and made joint efforts with the WSU to carry out activities with the cooperation of the university, such as conducting a survey on the financial burden faced by parents of new students and soliciting signatures.
