MATERNITY BENEFITS
WERE NEGOTIATED BY

Hits State’s Unilateral Announcement

(Special to The Leader)

ALBANY — The president of the New York State Civil
Service Commission has been charged with a breach of
“good faith" by Theodore C. Wenzl, president of the 210,000-
member Civil Service Employees Assn., for not identifying
recently announced changes in
the state's maternity leave policy
as items that were negotiated by
the union as part of its collec-
tive bargaining contract for state
workers.

In a letter to Ersa Poston,
Wenz] said, “Last week, you very
clearly put on public record the
fact that your office was initiat-
ing @ liberalized maternity leave
policy . , . you completely omit-
ted any references to these

changes as having been negotiat-

ed by the Civil Service Employ-
ees Assn.”

Ms, Poston had announced that
the maternity leave changes had
been made “to insure fair and
equal treatment for women who
are able to work although preg-
nant" and noted also that the
rules were amended to comply
with Federal Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission require.
ments. However, CSEA sources
point out that in both a press
release and her official directive

committees to turn their atten-

ton to elections being held in
various local government units
throughout the state

“I know we are all interested

in the elections being held this
month for CSEA offices,” sald
MeDonough, himself a candidate
for CSEA executive yice-presi-
dent. "Nevertheless, this is not
the time to drop the ball after

state, McDonough pointed out,

‘all, “For our members in these
local government units, it ls just
as important to have sympathe-
tic and understanding officials as
it ts for state members to have
a workable Legislature.

“There have been many dedi-
cated members — like Ralph
Natale, Don Antinore, Jim Len-
non, to name a few — who may
or may not have agreed with the
way the state committee reach-
ed its conclusions, Now is their
chance to do things their way
in their own areas.

“Our statewide committee
showed last year that tt can be
done," McDonough continued,

“so now let's keep the ball roll-
ing for the local government peo-
ple.”

In last year's state elections,
20 out of 27 CBSEA-endorsed
Senate candidates won election,
while 50 out of 67 CSEA-endorsed
Assembly candidates won. Over-
all record for the Employees As-
sociation was 74 percent success,

“When public employees have
to endure a one-sided Taylor
Law, then they have to be dou-
bly aware of who controls the
pursestrings,” McDonough add-
ed. “It has been gratifying to
realize that members of the Leg-
islature know who T am as a
result of our political action ef-
forts, but it is the individual
members of the Association
throughout the state who did
what was necessary to insure C8-
EA's success. They deserve the
credit,"

Woned that the changes in the
policy were negotiated by Mary
Blair, a CSEA negotiator, and
appear in a memorandum of
agreement between CSEA and
the state as a contingent part of
‘thelr most recent contract.

The negotiated agreement pro-
vides that when an employee
goes on leave because of illness
or disability caused by pregnancy
or childbirth, she is now eligible
to use any sick leave credits she
has accrued. Formerly, this was
a privilege that required employ-
er authorization,

Ms, Poston's public release of
the relaxed rules, according to
state sources, was timed to co-
incide with the national obser-
vance of Women's Rights Day.

Fact-Finder Awards
2 Holiday Eves To
Orange Members

(Special to The Leader)

NEWBURGH — The Orange County chapter of the
Civil Service Employees Assn. has won a grievance concern-
ing the denial of two one-half day holidays from the County.

Employees of Orange County were denied two one-half

day holidays for Christmas Eve
and New Year's Eve in 1972
Grievances were individually
filed by more than 350 CSEA
members in accordance with the
terms of the contract.

Each grievance was denied at
each step of the way by the im-
mediate supervisor and immedi-
ate department head of each
grievant. The denials were based
upon an Interpretation of the
contract by the County attorney.

This ruling was appealed to a
fact-finding panel headed by Dr.
Benent. The panel ruled unani-
mously tn favor of the employ-
ees.

As a result, each employee in
the employ of Orange County on
Dec. 26, 1973, who was denied
the two one-half day holidays
will be given one full day off
with pay to make up for this
action. Those employees who
were employed by the County
and who Jeft will receive one
day's pay.

Ann Butler, chapter president,
said of the decision, “I am very
happy to see justice done, but
much more happy to see the

geographical basis. To achieve this, the state has been
divided into five areas, corresponding to the six regions
Southern and Capital District Re-

Long Island, Metropolitan, Central
and Western will be self-contained. The reason for the
one combined area is that the Capital District Region,

Remember The Regions

AST week we discussed primarily the election of four
statewide officers for the Civil Service Employees Assn.
There are, in addition, 49 seats on the Association's State
Executive Committee and 38 Regional offices to be determin-
ed when ballots are mailed out later this week.

The State Executive Committee is composed of repre-
sentatives from the various state departments. Each state
CSEA member, regardless of his particular chapter affili-
ation, will have an opportunity to vote for the represen-
tatives for his department. This means that most state
members will be able to choose one representative’ to the
Executive Committee. Some of the larger departments will
be entitled to two, three or four representatives, and, in
those cases, the voters may mark thelr ballots for the
number of candidates that their department is entitled to,

A more complicated system will be used to elect Mental
Hygiene departmental representatives. This is explained in
detail elsewhere in The Leader (see Page 5).

What is indeed unique in this election is that the six
regions (formerly known as conferences) of the Association
will, for the first time, have their officers elected by the
membership at large within each region,

In each of these regions, the members will elect a presi-
dent, either three or four vice-presidents, a secretary and a
treasurer,

Eyen more involved (but with no effect on the yoting
procedure itself) is that the regional presidents also become
vice-presidents of the statewide CSEA organization, Thus, in
the statewide structure, these regional presidents/statewide
vice-presidents will rank directly behind the statewide
president and the statewide executive vice-president, In the
event the president and the executive vice-president shall
both be incapacitated and unable to fulfill the obligations
of the presidency, the six vice-presidents shall choose among
themselves whom shall move up as next in line. Previously,
the statewide yice-presidents were elected at-large state-
wide, and were numbered from first through fifth,

Many people do not as yet realize the additional choices
of leadership they will have to make in the regions, Before
the elections were expanded to bring power closer to the
people by decentralizing the statewide structure, these reg-
ional leaders were voted upon in closed sessions by delegates
from those chapters who were voluntary, paid members of
the conferences.

As part of the decentralized CSEA, individual regional
Offices and staffs are being set up to provide better service
to the membership within each of the regions. The regional
presidents will oversee these operations.

The mechanics, finances, and philosophies behind this
changeover in the CSEA structure have been major topics
at Delegates Meetings for more than two years, On Oct. 1,
the changeover becomes official.

Still there are many fine points to be worked out, and
the regional officers who are elected this month will be
making decisions and setting precendents that everyone
may have to live with for years to come.

When ballots are mailed Sept. 7, and received in mem-
bers’ homes shortly afterwards, we hope — we urge the
voters to pay special attention thia year to all the offices,
both statewide and regional

Governor's Mandate

Under a mandate from the
Governor and the Legislature,
the Commission has been direct-
ed, in the words of the Governor,
“to investigate and report to the
Governor and the Legislature
on all matters relating to the
rising costs of living and the
energy crisis and assist in the
coordination and enlargement of
the scope and effectiveness of
present state efforts to relieve
the impact of rising prices and
rents and apparent fuel shortages
on the state's consumers, tenants,
business and agricultural commu-
nities and local governments.

In announcing the appoint-
ment of the Commission, the
Governor said: “The work of this
Commission will have top priori-
ty in this administration, and I
have directed all state depart-
ments and agencies to cooper-
ate fully with the Commission in
its work,”

‘The challenge confronting As-
semblyman Stein, as Commission
Chairman, and his fellow Com-
missioners, will be an enormous
one, As the Governor phrased
it; “Nothing more frightens the
American people than the specter
of rising prices and rents and
the looming shortage of gasoline,
fuel oll, meat, milk and other
consumer commodities.”

Stein Cites Responsibilities

These are problems that con-
front elvil service employees just
as they do all middle-income
families and wage earners. What
particularly makes this Com-
mission unique is that it is the
only agency created by any
State that has responsibility for
monitoring prices to insure com-
piiance with federal price policies
and regulations.

Assemblyman Stein said that
the Commission has two-fold re-
sponsibilities; “to dampen the
fires of inflation and to protect
the health and welfare of our
People in the face of shortages
of food supplies, heating oll,
wasoline and other critical com-
modities.””

Assemblyman Stein has called
for a meeting of the Commis-
sion this Thursday, so that the
group can make hn immediate
start on its work

Service
Law & You

By RICHARD GABA

Mr, Gaba is a member of the firm of White, Walsh and Gaba,
P.C,, and chairman of the Nassau County Bar Association Labor
Law Committee,

Social Service Law

The Appellate Division, Second Department, recently
upheld a decision of the Suffolk County Supreme Court
This decision appears destined for the New York State
Court of Appeals by virtue of a dissenting opinion written
by Judge Benjamin. The case concerned Section 79-a of
the Social Services Law which was amended by the 1965
Legislature to mandate higher salaries for caseworkers and
other social services personnel employed by local welfare
departments based upon the completion of approved grad-
uate training.

The constitutionality of Section 79-a was upheld by
the Appellate Division and affirmed by the Court of Appeals
in the matter of Freedman vy. Suffolk County Board of
Supervisors, 29 A.D, 2d 661, affd. 25 NY 2d 873. The Appel-
late Division, Second Department, held in the Freedman
case that the percentage increase Js a differential to attract
trained personnel and thus improve the quality of social
services rendered. The increase additionally served to en-
courage employees to remain in public service.

. . .

SOME SIX YEARS after the law was passed, Section
79-a of the Social Services Law and some similar provisions
were repealed in 1971, and on June 21, 1971, the petitioners’
salaries were reduced, The sole issue on this appeal is
whether such salaries may lawfully be reduced. The ma-
jority held that they could be reduced. The dissent went
into great detail, however, setting forth its reasons why
the salaries could not be reduced.

The court pointed to subdivision 2 of Section 121 of
the Civil Service Law, which provides as to state employees
that, “the annual salary of any position compensable on
an annual basis which is classified or reclassified .. . to
a salary grade pursuant to the provisions of this article
shall not be reduced for the then permanent incumbent
by reason of any provision of this article so long as such
position is held by the then permanent incumbent.” The
dissenting Judge went on to say that in his opinion the
petitioners are state employees within the meaning of Ar-
ticle 8 of the Civil Service Law and are entitled to the pro-
tection afforded by subdivision 2 of Section 121 against
reductions in their salaries, “To hold that Section 121, as
part of Article 8, of the Civil Service Law, applies only to
employees paid directly by the state is to construe the
section too narrowly.” Accordingly, the dissenting judge
held that Section 121 of the Civil Service Law applied to
the petitioners and was a bar to the reduction of their
salaries. “To hold otherwise would raise a serious question
as to the constitutionality of the salary reduction under
the Equal Protection Clause of the Constitution of the
United States. This is so since the salary of a social worker
employed by the state could not be reduced by virtue of
the repeal of Section 79-a of the Social Services Law, while
the salary of a social worker employed by a county could
be so reduced under the construction adopted by the
majority,”

Finally, the court pointed out in its dissent that the
majority's result was unfair since petitioners were induced
to enter into or remain in county service by the now re-
pealed Section 79-a of the Social Service Law, /n Matter
of J. Azzato, et al. v. Suffolk County Legislature, et al., 345
NYS 2d 112,

HE Supreme Court of Westchester County decided

last June that a factual finding by a judge in a sep-
arate proceeding brought to punish a teachers’ association
for contempt for violation of court orders with respect
to a strike to the effect that there was no provocation
within the meaning of the statute. Authorizing an impo-
sition of a fine in such cases was not res judicata with
respect to the matter of provocation in another proceeding
by PERB charging an illegal strike by the teachers’ asso-
elation. In this case, the Board of Education commenced
@ proceeding under the Taylor Law charging the Port
Chester Teachers’ Assn, with engaging in an illegal strike
between January 18 and 24, 1972, State PERB rendered its
written decision in which it held that there was an illegal
strike. Under the law, PERB has discretion as to the dura-
tion of any forfeiture of dues check off it may impose, and
one factor which the Board may consider is whether the
public employer engaged in acts of extreme provocation,

Western Conf Meets

(From Leader Correspondent)

HORNELL The Western
Conference of the Civil Ser-
vice Employees has
concluded a serie:
Ings here with an eye toward the
future

The meeting was
order by Conference president
Samuel Grossfield on Aug. 18
as the chapter representatives
wot down to business

First on the agenda was the
introduction of State and region-
al candidates for CSEA offices
and the introduction of Western
Conference officers,

One of the major topics of
discussion was the handling of
delinquent dues and how this
problem could be overcome.
Statewide CSEA treasurer Jack
Gallagher told those present that
this problem was under exten-
sive study at the present time
and solutions were being ex-
plored to the fullest, Gallagher
also cited the successes registered
by CSEA'’s new comptroller,
whom he praised as having more
than earned his salary in savings
to the Association in the brief
period of his work in Albany

A subsequent question arose
about the eligibility of members
delinquent in their dues for in-
surance benefits in the event of
4 death or accident while @
member is not in good standing

John Adamski, former Western
Conference president, advised the
delegates that this avenue had

gaveled to

been discussed at length and it
was initially determined that the
errant member would indeed be
in line for the Insurance benefits
despite his somewhat untenuous
position with CSEA

Adamski's observations promp-
ted a number of suggestions to
improve the Association's lever-
age in collecting dues by insti-
tuting cancellation of insur-
ance procedure.

The discussion was triggered
by a report submitted by Confer-
ence first vice-president Edward
Dudek

In other areas, the delegates
voted to approve the payment of
& $50 stpend for each Western
Conference member who elected

Hornell chapter members who planned the first meeting of the Western Conference ever

to run for an office of respon-
sibility within the Association.

Western Conference delegates
also elected to provide confer-
ence Political Action Committee
members renumeration for ex-
penses incurred for meals and
travel in the performance of
thelr duties for the Committee.
The motion, which carried unan-
imously, brought the political
action committee into parity wita
other Conference Committees in
that area

Erie County chapter officials
tugged at the Conference purse
strings as well and succeeded in
winning a one-time donation to
{ts coffers for the purpose of
financing miscellaneour opera-

started another, but resigned be-
cause, for personal and domestic
feasons, I transferred my job
to the State University College at
Predonia.

At Fredonia, I found the CS-
EA chapter to be very inactive.
Authority from Headquarters
finally demanded chapter elec-
tion proceedings and I was elect~
ed chapter President. I set about
to reorganize the chapter, and
the people at Fredonia knew
they had a “live" unit of CSEA
after being almost dormant for
many years

At the end of my term, 1 did
not seek re-election as chapter
President, but stepped aside to
give the male members a chance.
(Some of them seemed to resent
having a woman in that office.)
However, I did volunteer to run
&s corresponding secretary and
was elected to that office, in
which I still serve. I have vol-
unteered to be a candidate for
election of Delegate in our com-
ing chapter elections.

In the fall of 1971, I was ap-
pointed to the State Negotiating
Team for Administrative Services
and served on that team through-
out that negotiating period.

1 am now a senior typist, grade
7, in the Office of Institutional
Studies at the SUNY College at
Fredonia, Having been a typist
and steno for many years, I am
confident my skills and experi-
ence in office work, and my ac-
tive years In CSEA work, well
qualify me for the office I seek
in the Western Region 6 of
CSEA

Only Two Candidates For Long Island Sec’y

the

name of Frances Bates will also

appear on the ballots, Ms. Bates
1s currently vacationing out of

been authoritatively informed
that she requested her name be
withdrawn from consideration.

At Hornell

tion of the chapter's regional
office at 4122 Union Road,
Cheektowaga.

Chapter officials pointed out
that the office, which supplies
many services to Conference
chapters and units, had been op-
erating partially through the
generosity of Erie County chap-
ter members who had paid for
such things as paper towels,
Janitorial services, office supplies
and even the 24-hour answering
service (634-3540) out of their
own pockets,

A motion was adopted urging
the contribution of $10 per chap-~
ter to a special petty cash fund
to pay for these expenses, Grozs-
field emphasized strongly that

held in Hornelt are, from left, Ken Pasearillo, Jack Brown, committee chairman Mat
Myers, chapter president Earl Logan, Betty Gessner, Linda Berry, William Whitford, Betsy

Pomeroy, Robert Covel, Irene Sky and James Freeland

the contribution would be
time obligation pending
sumption of responsibility by the
State Association for the opera-
tion of regional offices under
terms of restructuring

Other business included the
selection of two Western Cunfer-
ence delegates to sit on the State
Regional Offices Committees.
They are Melba Binn, a member
of the Rochester Retirees’ chap-
ter, and George DeLong, former
Conference president from ig
State at Mount Morris.

‘The session concluded witn the

announcement of an interim
Western Conference meeting
scheduled for Sept. 21, at 6:30

Pm. at the Batavia Treadway
Inn in Batavia. The interim
meeting will provide delegates
with an opportunity to formu-
late their agenda prior to the
Delegates meeting that starts
Bept. 30.

The formal business session
was preceded by the County
Workshop and was followed by
a dinner dance at the Ponce de
Leon Restaurant in North Hor-
nell.
