Civil Service Happiness

CIVIL SERVICE happiness is the satisfaction of a job
well done and thereby earning both good public relations
and an annual salary commensurate with skill, self-respect

and human dignity.

HAPPINESS IS also an improv-
ed skill and a fatter paycheck. In
addition, happiness is a chance to
move upward on the promotion
scale and to reach the top on an
equal opportunity basis for all
civil servants.

THIS HAS all been possible in
the past. It is even more possible
now. In the future, the oppor-
tunities are practically unlimited.
Each year, more and more prog-
Tess is made to place civil service
on the same or higher plane than
the private sector.

ONE BIG STEP in that direc-
tion is being made in Federal civil
service, which frequently is a
harbinger for civil service on the
Btate and municipal levels.

THE HUGE roadblock in Fed-
eral civil service always has been
Congressional pay. No civil ser-
vant could ever expect to make
more than a Congressman, And
since a raise in Congressional pay
has always been political dyna-
mite, the increase in a Congress-
man’s pay has been a slow, tor-
tuous process.

THANKS TO a law which hard-
ly anyone ever heard of, Congres-
sional pay has been denuded of its
explosive characteristics. Tacked
to the 1967 civil service pay raise
bill during a House-Senate Con-
ference, the new law leaves pay
raises on the top levels almost ex-
clusively in the hands of the Pres-

affairs will not diminish by any
means.

The most obvious reason for this,
of course, is that the Legislature
stil controls the purse strings as
far as State employees are con-
cerned and has to put the stamp
of approval on any financial mat-
ters worked out between employees
organizations and the Rockefeller
Administration and there are still
many measures concerning local
government employees that have
to have Legislature approval be-
fore becoming effective.

Outside of these two obvious
factors, civil service organizations
are certainly going to be headed
for the Legislature when they feel
balked by the State or local gov-
ernment bodies. Let’s assume, for
instance, that the State attempts |
to stall moves toward a substan-
tial raise for State workers. It al: |

tions will then turn to seek more
funds, either through budget ma-
neuvers or increased revenues.

Political subdivisions who re-
fuse to advance retirement and
other benefits may find themselves
forced to do so if the Legislature
so mandates.

Furthermore, the Legislature is
certainly not going to give up its
prerogative of approving budgets
submitted to it by the Governor,
no matter how smooth employee
relations go with the management

of course, that the governor of

Buffalo Hospital CSEA
Members’ Motto Was
Patients Come First’

(From Leader Correspondent)
BUFFALO — “Patients come first” could well have been
the Civil Service Employees Assn. motto during a three-day
strike by an AFL-CIO union that last week hit Buffalo State

Hospital.

“That's all we thought about
— the welfare of the patients,”
sald Mrs. Sarah DaRe, a psychiat-
tic ward attendant and the vice-
president of the CSEA Buffalo
State Hospital chapter.

About 300 members of Local
1069, Council 50, American Fed-
eration of State, County and
Munictpal Employees picketed the
four hospital entrances.

But more than 800 other work-
¢ts—CSEA members, crossed the
lines to go to work. Many did so
Under considerable oral abuse
from the pickets.

The employees who did report
for work put in 12-hour tours of
duty and “performed magnificent-
\y," sald Dr. Joseph J. Sconzo,
Buffalo State director.

Dr. Sconzo said “more than loy-
al performances” by employees
who defied the pickets guaran-
teed “excellent service” to more
than 2,000 mentally-ill patients.

“The CSEA and the State are
engaged often in disputes,” one
hospital administrator sald, “and
these will continue but over the
long pull I think we can rely on
the fact that the CSEA will never
make mentally-ill persons the
Pawns in a labor misunderstand-
ing.”

Wesley Demmon, president of
the Buffalo State Hospital CSEA
chapter was on vacation when
the strike started. But he was in
constant touch with other chapter
officers during the strike and at-
tended a CSEA special delegates’
meeting last week in Albany.

CSEA members in the hospital
chapter and in other CSEA units
in the Buffalo area were not pre-
pared to comment immediately
in the aftermath of the Nov. 27
decision by the State Public Em-
ployment Relations Board.

“I know one thing,” a chapter
president sald, “the PERB decision
gave Council 50 a chance to bail
out of what was turning into a
nasty situation for them. They
were beginning to look bad and
they knew it.”

approval is required in all strike

of the CSEA constitution.
Negotiations broke down after
the CSEA chapter turned down
a@ two-year contract which the

supervisors attempted to “force
down our throats.”
The chapter, earlier desig-

nated as the employees bargain-
ing agent, charged that the sup-
ervisors ignored the recommen-
dations of a fact finder, Dean
Robert Risley of the Cornell Uni-
versity School of Industrial and
Labor Relations, cut the salary
of the chapter's president by $1,-
000 and denied an increment to
a member of the unit's bargain-
ing committee.
Stormy Meeting

At a stormy meeting that clim-
|axed two months of negotiations, |
the chapter voted to strike “to
gain justice for their officers,
protect the integrity of the Tay-|
lor Law and to gain much need- |
ed economic benefits,” said John
J. Ray, CSEA field representa-
tive who substituted for Louis
T. Shaw, hospitafized staff rep-
resentative.

“In the entire State—and there
are at least 1,000 public employ-
ers and more than 600,000 pub-
lic employees—no group of em-
Pployees, no chapter officers who
serve without pay, and no nego-
tiating committee ever has been |
subjected to what has occurred in
this county,” Ray told the chap-
ter at the meeting.

“If what has happened here

Seneca Employees

Map Strike Plans

WATERLOO — Seneca County employees voted to strike if necessary, last week after
what one Civil Service Employees Assn. leader called “treacherous activity” by the Board
of Supervisors in contract negotiations with Seneca chapter of CSEA.

Two members of the chapter’s board of directors were scheduled to attend a special

written on,” he said.

“If you people tolerate this type
of unilateral treacherous activity,
and don't rise to the support of

| these people, and this law, there

is nothing anyone in this world
ean do for you. This is a delib-
erate attempt to break your will
and your nerve, and if it suc-
ceeds, then you're wasting $26 a
year (CSEA dues),” he told the
workers.

“And, the tragedy of this dis-
pute,” Ray said, “ls that only be-
tween $6,000 and $10,000 sep-
arates what we want and the
fact finder recommended and

what the county is offering for

Westchester Aides To Vote
On New Two-Year Contract

tween the County and CSEA
Pinal ratification of the new
agreement, the first such agree-
ment to be made by the County, is
expected to follow shortly by mail
ballot, according to Pat Mascioll,
CSEA unit president.

The agreement, as reported by
CSEA officials, was the product
of more than four months of in-
tensive bargaining, in which nego-
tiations had totally deadlocked
during mid-October and then re-
sumed under the supervision of a
mediator appointed by the West-
chester County Public Employ-

the County had refused to offer

comparable to the County gov-

ties together for a new round of
bargaining talks which finally cul-
minated in the settlement report-
ed last night.

Principal items among those re-
ported to the meeting were:

County employees up to exist-

ing rates for comparable jobs

in private employment in the

Westchester area, with a

minimum increase guarantee

of $500 for $1969, and a fur-
ther 5 percent increase for

1970, with an additional guar-

antee that if the increase in

cost of living during 1969
should exceed 5 percent, the
employees will receive the

higher amount.

© Improvements beginning
in 1969 were also announced
for employees working certain
shift hours, together with an
adjustment to equalize the
hours of employment for many

of the employees at the
Grasslands Reservation.
© Further improvements

will also be made in 1970 in
the cost of insurance benefits

and in a number of fringe
areas.
The understandings between

CSEA and the County have been

incorporated in a written contract
which extends to CSEA many im-

role as representative of County

to $45,000.

FOR CIVIL service this means
that the ceiling on the highest
grade will move up from the cur-
rent top of $28,000. And if the top
moves up all the other grades
should move up, too. This may not
happen immediately because 13
million Federal civil servants will
receive increases up to nine per-
cent next July. But with the lid off
the top, there will surely be a sal-
ary movement upward.

THIS IS bound to affect pay

Civil Service Warriors

HEN negotiations were called off between the Rockefeller

Administration and the Civil Service Employees Assn.,
because of a stay in the talks ordered by the Public Employ-
ment Relations Board, CSEA had worked the State offer up
to more than $120,000,000 in new benefits for State workers
and was demanding more.

It is ironic that the Employees Association, which had
rejected salary and retirement benefits in that package as
being insufficient, has had to drop its battle for just wage
and pension benefits to take on PERB, the Governor‘s refusal
to continue negotiations and the illegal, anti-employee ac-
tivities of a competing union,

Out of the entire group listed above, only the Civil
Service Employees Assn. remains in battle on behalf of
State workers. The Rockefeller Administration has bowed
to the blackmail of an immoral and illegal strike by the
union. PERB has demonstrated right along that it was
more interested in high-flown, untried bargaining tech-
niques than in employees, The union has shown that it is
not concerned with gaining employee benefits—its actions
may have done State workers out of getting anything at all
this year—but only with maintaining its position as a dues
collection agency among less than 10 percent of State
employees.

The real warriors for State workers are the members
of the Civil Service Employees Assn, and it is the duty of
every State employee to give this organization full back-
ing in the weeks and months to come. Every single worker
should be ready to support the CSEA in every challenge it
issues and every challenge it receives, The whole future of
well-paid government employees will depend upon this sup-

City with a Heart

T has often been said that New Yorkers do not have hearts.
It has also been said that nobody cares.
It isn’t true!

When 12 New York City firefighters lost their lives in
the collapse of a cellar in a Madison Square commercial
building last year:

A dozen women became widows.
Three dozen children lost their fathers.

And the hearts of thousands of New Yorkers opened up
to the firefighters and their families,

Last week, more than $600,000 was distributed to these
families. There were several large donations but the majority
of the gifts to the firefighters’ survivors came from the
ttle people who sent the dollars and the silver that they
could afford. These gifts were truly from the heart,

Much of the fund came from the civil service corps
who are always in there pitching when the chips are down.

While the money will not heal the deep wounds suffer-
ed when these 12 men died protecting the lives and property
of their fellow citizens, !t will help pay off mortgages, pro-
vide education for the children and lessen the financial
burden generally for these 12 families.

To those who contributed, The Leader joins with civil
servants in saying thank you for making things a little easier
for the 12 families, and for proving that people appreciate
the work of the public employee.

LETTERS
TO THE EDITOR

Reconsider, Rocky!
Editor, The Leader;

The following letter has been
sent to the Governor.

Dear Governor Rockefeller:

I have been a State employee
for 32 years and a member of
the Civil Service Employees As-
sociation for most of that time.
In all these years. the CSEA,
without any official status or
recognition, was the only voice
the civil service employees of
this State had, and all the gains
that we have made can be at-
tributed to the untiring efforts
of the CSEA,

Therefore, I was very deeply
disturbed to read that you in-
tend to go along with the PERB
recommendation to set up five
different bargaining agents for
State employees and that you
will cease contract negotiations
with CSEA until such time as
elections will be held in accord-
ance with the board’s recommen-
dations.

I strongly believe that it 1s up
to the State employees them-
selves, not the PERB, to decide
whether they want one bargaining
unit or five bargaining units and
who that bargaining unit or units
should represent. ,

You had rightfully and lawfully
recognized the Civil Service Em-
ployees Assn. as bargaining agent
for the State employees in this
year's contract negotiations, In
all fairness, CSEA should be al-
lowed to conclude these negotia-
tions and present a contract to
its membership, so that when
elections are held each employee
can determine what the Asso-
ciation hag and can do as con-
strasted with the claims of these
other labor unions as to what
they will do.

I urge you to reconsider your
decision and reinstate bargain-
ing with the Civil Service Em-
ployees Assn. until proper, un-
pressured, and meaningful elec-
tions can be held.

Civil Service
Law & You

By WILLIAM GOFFEN
(Mr, Goffen, » member of the New York Bar, teaches law at the
College of the City of New York, ts the author of many books and
articles and co-authored “New York Criminal Law.”)

Taylor Law Test

DOES THE PROHIBITION against strikes by public em-
Pployees deprive them of due process of law and of the equal
protection of the laws? In a scholarly opinion by Chief
Judge Stanley H. Fuld, the Court of Appeals, our State's
highest court, has answered this question (City of New York
v, John J. DeLury, New York Law Journal, November 21, 1968,
page 1).

JOHN J, DELURY and the Uniformed Sanitationmen’s
Association which he heads were found guilty of criminal
contempt of court for willfully disobeying its lawful mandates,
|He was sentenced to fifteen days in jail and fined $250.
| The union was fined $80,000 and its right to check-off dues
was forfeited for a period of eighteen months.

THE GENESIS of the difficulties of Mr. DeLury and the
union was a work stoppage by the sanitation men of the City
of New York from February 2, 1968 to February 10, 1968. In
consequence, garbage accumulated on the City streets at the
rate of 10,000 tons a day and created a serious health and
fire hazard.

THE CITY OF New York obtained from the Court a
temporary restraining order on the first day of the strike
requiring the union leaders to instruct the members to re-
turn to work, A few days later, Special Term granted a pre-
liminary injunction which similarly required Mr. DeLury
to instruct the sanitation men to stop the strike.

DURING THE hearing on the City’s application to punish
the union ane Mr. DeLury for criminal contempt, their at-
torney conceded that if the Corporation Counsel called sani-
tation men as witnesses to establish that Mr. DeLury had
not instructed them to return to work, they would testify
that “they did not receive any instruction from Mr. DeLury
to go back, because Mr. DeLury did not send them out,
and Mr. DeLury did nothing to bring them back.”

THE UNION’S primary defense was that the Taylor Law,
which mandates that public employees shall not strike, is
unconstitutional for violation of the State and federal guar-
antees that “no person shall be deprived of life, liberty
or property without due process of law.” Judge Fuld overruled
this contention on several grounds.

THE CONSTITUTION does not assure an absolute right
to strike. The general rule is that the State may prohibit
any strike if the prohibition is for the purpose of achieving
a valid State policy, and the Taylor Law is reasonably de-
signed to effectuate a policy against strikes by public em-
ployees as incompatible with our democratic form of gov-
ernment, As noted by Chief Judge Fuld, striking pubile
employees, “by paralyzing a city through the exercise of
naked power, could obtain gains wholly disproportionate to
the services rendered by them and at the expense of the
public and other public employees.”

THE EQUAL protection of the laws clause was also re-
led upon by the union to attack the Taylor Law. However,
Chief Judge Fuld pointed out that public employees do not
have the right to strike possessed by private employees, be-
cause of factual differences between public and private em-
ployment. Thus, in the private sector, the need to prevent
goods or services from being priced out of the market may
restrain demands during collective bargaining negotiations.
The only constraint in terms of public employee negotiations
is the budget allocation. The preservation of the right of
our legislative representatives to make budgetary alloca-
tions free from the compulsion of crippling strikes requires
the regulation of strikes by public employees, There is 0°
similar reason to prohibit strikes by private employees. Dif-
ferences between public and private employment justify leg-
islation prohibiting strikes by public employees, although
there is no comparable legislation against strikes by private
employees,

THE UNION also argued that it was entitled to a trial bY
jury, The right to a jury, however, was held by the Court ©
be unavailable to public employees in a criminal contempt
of court proceeding, again because the legislative differenti-
ation between strikes by public and private employees is
reasonable, and, therefore, constitutional.

Ever hear that all health insurance plans are the same?
Don't you believe it!

There are several important considerations you must keep in mind when selecting your
beetaecance carrier. Let's take two important areas — payment in full and scope

ere ret indented ieN hts

PAYMENT IN FULL Only certain health insurers — and GHI is one of them — provide a
mechanism by which doctors charge no more than the insurance company pays. GHI is

unique in that it does not inquire into the size of income to determine eligibility for payment
in full. All GHI subscribers are eligible for payment in full.

SCOPE OF BENEFITS Scope is a funny word, It can mean the number of services or it can
mean the variety of care paid for. For example: Preventive care such as immunizations,
even when no illness exists — yet.

Under the Type C GHI Family Doctor Plan, special emphasis is placed on payment, for such
care as immunizations, annual physical examinations for adults, and well-baby

care for infants.

Then again, no limitation is placed upon the location of the care received. GH! pays for
doctor care anywhere in the world,

Ever hear that all health insurance plans are the same? Don't you believe it!
The GHI Family Doctor Pian can be bought by groups of twenty or more employed people,
Don’t you wish you were one of the over one million people protected by GHI?
Over 375,000 Civil Service workers and their dependents are enrolled as GHI subscribers,

Special Conference
Held In Capital

The mechanics of determining
how well schools are doing their
jobs was the main topic at a spe-
cial conference held Dec. 4 in Al-
bany at the request of State Edu-
cation Commissioner James E.
Allen,

The Commissioner's Conference
on State and National Educa-
tional Assessment is designed to
familiarize educators and the pub-
lic alike with the national assess-
ment of education program ex-
pected to get under way in April.

Approximately 45 invited par-
ticipants, including educators, rep~
resentatives of business and in-
dustry, officials of various organi-
zations, and members of the pub-
lic-at-large attended,

The national assessment, first
proposed several years ago, has
been a controyersial issue among
educators from coast to coast.
Many feel that the program, to
be administered by a nonprofit
corporation entitled the Commit-
tee on Assessing the Progress of
Education (CAPE), feel that it is
a first step toward national stand-
ards and government-prescribed
courses.

An initial grant of $370,000 from
the US. Office of Education got
the program started. In October,
Congress appropriated $1 million
to finance the first year of a pro-
posed three-year study.

Alan G. Robertson, director of
the Department’s Division of
Evaluation, served: as moderator
for the conference and conducted
@ question and answer period fol-
lowing the afternoon session. Lor-
ne H. Woollatt, associate com-
missioner for research and evalua-
tion, summarized the conference.

In all, ten subject-matter areas
were assessed, with science, writ-
ing, and citizenship planned for
the first year, Literature, mathe-
matics, reading, social studies,
music, art, and vocational educa-
tion will come later,

MAT Reading Scores
Show Improvement

Board of Education efforts to
improve early childhood education
appear to be reflected in improve-
ment in the Metropolitan Achieve-
ment Test reading scores in the
early grades, according to a sum-
mary of City-wide grading test re-
sults for 1967-68 prepared by the
Office of Educational Research,

A comparison of frequency dis-
tributions of scores for April, 1968,
with those for April, 1967 shows
@ general upward trend for the
early grades up through grade 5,
according to the summary,

‘The report points to the results
for the fourth grade as an “out-
standing example” of improve-
ment, The percent of pupils above
the national norm Increased from
33.9 in April, 1967, to 39.5 in April,
1968, an increase of 5.6.

Similarly, these following im-
provements are noted: grade 2,
0.1 percent from 45.1 to 45,2;
grade 3, 3.9 percent, from 40.1 to
44; grade 5, 2.2 percent, from 37.1
to 39.3.

On the other hand, higher
grades show a slight decrease, as
follows: grade 6, 0.3 percent, from
41.6 to 41.3; grade 7, 1.5 percent,

from 39,7 to 38.2; gerade 8, 14
percent, from 49 to 47.6 and grade
9, 0.7 percent, from 50.3 to 49.6,

In the national sample score,
50 percent are aboye and 50 per-
cent are below the grade norm.

Superintendent of Schools Dr.
Bernard E. Donovan, who initiated
the Focus on Reading program
when he became Superintendent
of Schools in September, 1965,
commented on the report:

“I am heartened by the {!m-
provement in the early grades and
look towards similar progress in
the other grades as our remedial
and preventive programs take
hold. However, the needs of our
pupils, especially those in poverty
areas are so great that we must
redouble our efforts to improve
reading instruction.”

‘Only frustration and despair
can result if we start children on
the acquisition of more advanced
areas of knowledge before they
master the basic tools for hand-
ling it,” he continued.

The Superintendent added: ‘“Be-
cause the cooperation of parents
and the entire school community
is vital in our pursuit of excel-
lence, the Board of Education and
I will continue to inform them
frankly and completely about the
status of pupil achievement and
about steps that need to be taken
toward greater improvement.”

Workshops Started
For New Teachers

After-school workshops for re-
cently-licensed teachers at all
school levels—elementary, inter-
mediate, junior and senior high
school—are being organized in
each of the 33 school districts of
the New York City school system.

A staff of 350 experienced
teachers, known as teacher-
trainers, is being assigned to
schools where additional profes-
sional assistance is considered de-
sirable. The teacher-trainers are
being selected by principals with
the approval of the District Sup-
erintendent or Unit Administrator.

‘The workshops will be under the
direction of each District Super-
intendent, who will determine the
location of workshops within the
district.

Deputy Superintendent of
Schools Dr, Theodore H. Lang of
the Office of Personnel initiated
this project. He stressed that the
trainers will supplement the nor-
mal teacher-training and curricu-
lum development program carr:-d
out by school supervisors.

Raymond Greenstein is proj >t
coordinator of the workshops.

CIVIL SERVICE LEADER, Tuesday, December 10, 1968

CSEA Tells All

(Continued from Page 1)

“The union has cynically used
mentally ill-people and a few mis-
guided employees in an attempt
to keep the Employees Association
from bringing home the bacon for
the State workers i so honestly
and effectively represents,’ the
spoksman declared.

CSEA has won a court injunc-
tion against the PHRB stay order
that is effective until this Friday
ami is pressing for resumption of
negotiations,

Salaries

Here's what CSEA was putting
pressure on to increase when con-
tract talks were called off:

An average $420 across-the-board
Pay increase for all State work-
ers plus a $100 geographical dif-
ferential for employees working
in the five New York City coun-
ties and Nassau, Suffolk, Rock-
land and Westchester counties. A
$100 annual night shift differential
allotment to all State workers so
employed.

Retirement

Guaranteed half-pay retirement
after 25 years’ service figured at

best three years of annual salary.
Additional credit for service over
25 years computed at the rate of
1/60th for best three years of ser-
vice and this would include Cor-
rection Officers as well.

These are just brief summaries
and more details are given on
page 16 of this issue, But it is im-
portant to remember that CSEA
intends to use the above offers
as the basis for producing an even
better package of pay, retirement
and fringe benefits for State work-
| ers,

‘Hell Of A Note’

As CSHA moved to the attack on
all fronts to get bargaining going
again one CSEA spokesman noted
wryly that “It’s a hell of a note
when a so-called public employee
union turns out to be more anti-
employee than the State or the
PERB but we've handled bigger
bluffers than Council 50 before and
we'll do it again. In one way,
I'm glad for the chance to expose
that two-bit outfit for what it ts
and always has been — a high-
priced dues collection gimmick.”

Seneca St

(Continued from Page 3)
crease which the employees had
turned down.

At the same time, the salary
of Frederick Morehouse, Seneca
chapter president, was cut by the
$1,000 and Angelo Bianci was de-
nied a pay increment.

Ray stressed that the chapter's
fight was not with all members
of the Board of Supervisors. He
said the chapter and he both
hope for the continued support
from those members “who are
reasonable men, those with in-
tegrity and with a sense of equ-
itty and justice.”

Reprisal Charged

He sald he 4s filing “reprisal”
charges with the State PERB on
behalf of Morehouse and Biancl.

‘The events leading to the break-
down of negotations began when
the supervisors rejected a con-
tract which the chapter's commit-
tee thought had been agreed upon
by the board's negotiators, led
by Junius Supervisor Duane Marks.
This pact included an eight per-
cent pay increase, with a $300
minimum, and other benefits,

At Marcy St. Hosp.
Started By CSEA

A High School Equivalency
Program was started at Marcy
State Hospital on Dec. 3, 1968.
A total of 33 applicants ap-
plied for the course; 23 were
accepted,

‘The program is a continuance
of a Statewide program instituted
last Summer at Rockland State
Hospital, Orangeburg, by the Civil
Service Employees Assn. chapter
there in cooperation with the
Department of Mental Health.

The board then proposed a con-
tract with a five percent increase
and $300 minimum,

Bad Faith

The chapter turned this offer
down “because they (the super-
visors) exhibited they were not
negotiating in good faith. We fig-
| ured we had an agreement with
them, then they turned around
|and presented us with a lower
offer.”

Later, the supervisors made an-
other offer — for a flat $300
across-the-board increase. The
chapter turned this one down, too.
Then came the offer for a two
year contract, with a $300 flat
boost the first year, and $200 the
second.

In between the offers came Dean
Risley's recommendations for a
seven percent increase across the
board boost for one year,

County Highway Division.

tions of two union locals seeking
to decertify the CSEA unit and to
certify them as bargaining agents
for the highway employees.

Onondaga chapter earlier was
named bargaining agent for all
full-time county employees, ex-
cept executive-supervisory and
professional employees, register-
ed nurses, deputy sheriffs and s
few others.

The group represented by the
chapter under the April 12, 1968,
designation included about 2,400
employees, with 1,069 in the blue
collar category. Of these latter,
278 were in the Highway Depart-
ment,

‘The decertification petitions were
filed by the American Federation
of State, County and Municipal
Employees and the International
Brotherhood of Teamsters, Chauf-
feurs, Warehousemen and Helpers
of America locals, each of which
sought to be named bargaining
agent for the 278 workers.

The CSEA unit opposed the peti-
tions, with Earl P. Boyle, CSEA
regional attorney, arguing for the
chapter at hearings in September.

The county PERB found that,
although the workers seeking to
be grouped together are subject
to common working rules, person-
nel practices and salary strue-
ture, “there is nothing in the rec-
ord to indicate that blue collar
workers of the Highway Division
. +» Must be in a separate unit
to obtain effective representation.”

Also, the board found, “i is
apparent that blue collar employ-
ees are not relegated solely to
the Hioghway Division. There are
blue collar workers throughout the
entire structure of the employer.”

Classifications similar to those
in the division are included in em-
ployees at the County Home, Di-

Onondaga Chapter Beats Down
Unions’ Decertification Attempt

SYRACUSE — Onondaga chapter, Civil Service Employees Assn., has defeated an ate
tempt to decertify 1t as the bargaining agent of the blue collar workers in the Onondagy

The County Public Employment Relations Board (PERB) last week dismissed the pet,

vision of Buildings and Grounds,
and others,

“The petitioners have not at-
tempted to distinguish between
blue collar employees of the High-
way Division and blue collar em-
Ployees of any other division of
the employer,” the PERB sald.

And, it said im the decision,
“there is no real distinct differ-
ence with respect to major condi-
tions of employment in the High-
way Division with other divisions
of the employer that would war-
rant the establishment of a separ-
ate bargaining unit.”

CIVIL SERVICE LEADER, Tue:

THE INSIDE STORY OF WHAT
STATE EMPLOYEES MAY LOSE
BECAUSE PERB BLEW THE WHISTLE
ON CSEA NEGOTIATIONS

CSEA had already won firm offers from the Governor's Negotiating Committee
on many important salary, retirement and other CSEA demands before the unofficial
coalition comprised of PERB, the Governor's office, Council 50, and various vague
political sources finally succeeded—through a combination of illegal actions and as-
sorted hanky-panky—in stopping CSEA's bargaining talks for 124,000 State employees.
Because of, the break in negotiations, CSEA is now free—and owes to its members—to

reveal what the State was

ig to give.

The following salary increase was offered by the State, but was rejected by
CSEA's negotiating committee as grossly insufficient:

1. SALARIES

© Four percent across-the-board with @ $250 minimum
for each employee effective next April 1.
(Equivalent to $420 across-the-board per employee.)
PLUS
© $100 additional salary adjustment for each State employee working
im Bronx, Kings, New York, ns, Richmond, Nassau, Suffolk,
Rockland and Westchester Counties,
PLUS ;
© $100 additional salary adjustment for all State employees working

ual raise

(Rejected by CSEA}

on an evenng or night shift.
PLUS
@ An additional salary increase for State employ:
1, 1968, aad March 31, 9,

hired between

and the $600 minimum pay increase granted at that time
those employees less than $6,000 and in State service prior to
April 1, 1968,

Following CSEA's rejection of the above offer, the State Negotiating Committee
agreed to try to find additional money to come closer to meeting CSEA's salary de-
mands. Had negotiations continued, there is every reason to believe a much better offer

would have been reached.

The following offer had been worked out between the State and CSEA to im-
Prove the State employees' retirement program:

2. RETIREMENT

(1) 1/50th of final three-year average salary for each year of
service for employees with 25 years of service.

(Guaranteed half-pay after 25 years of service.)

(2) Service in excess of 25 years would receive additional pension
credit at the rate of 1/60th of final three-year average salary for
each year of service beyond 25 years. (Correction officers are includ-

ed in this plan.)

(3) Employees with less than 25 years of service would be eligible
to receive a pension equal to 1/60th of final three-year average
salary for each year of service at age 55. 4

(4) Vesting after ten years of service at the 1/60th rate. Vesting
after 25 years of service at the 1/50th rate,

Because of the stopping of negotiations, the above benefits as they stand—let
alone any chances of further improvements—are now in danger of being lost to State

employees, Who's to blame?
ping CSEA's negotiations!

. +.» All those mentioned above who were a party to stop-

ON THE POSITIVE SIDE, CSEA WILL TAKE ALL POSSIBLE STEPS TO:
1. Make the State come through with at least what has already been offered, and

2. Resume negotiations and push for a final offer which will be far better than the
inadequate commitments made thus far.

In addition to the firm offers made by the State on salary and retirement benefits, the following
demands were tentatively agreed to by the Governor's Negotiating Committee:

. Retirement allowance to be based on three-year final

average salary.

. Elimination of the requirement that overtime worked

be taken as compensatory time-of during the same
work week, thereby providing for payment in cash at
144 times an employee's regular rate of pay for work
In excess of 40 hours per week,

|. Guaranteed minimum of one half day's pay to em-

ployees called to work for emergency duty outside
of regular work hours for a period of less than
4 hours,

}. Employees disabled in the line of duty to have time

on Workmen's Compensation leave credited toward
fime required to earn their annual increment,

Full salary protection for employees affected by

automation,

6. Toll-free passage over the Triborough Bridge for
Manhattan State Hospital employees who drive their
own cars to work and who do not live on the
institution grounds,

7. Elimination of the requirement that an emplovee
must have contributed to the retirement system for
five years before he can vest,

8,100 percent of the current pension benefit to be
used for vesting under the retirement system.

9. Full life insurance coverage on loans from the re-
tirement system effective 30 days after the effective
date of the loan,

10, A provision whereby employees who failed to trans-
fer service credit from one retirement system to
another may do so at a later date and gain all

benefits available, providing such employees give
notice to both retirement systems of their desire te
transfer all credits earned in the first system, Such
employees will be required to deposit in the set
ond retirement system the total amount of contribs
tions withdrawn from tho first system,
-For current retirees under the State Empl
tiroment System, extension of eligibliity fo
living supplemental benefits to pensioners receiving

irement incomes up to $8,000, instead of

the present $7,000 ceiling,
. Provide four three-day holiday weekends for State
employees similar to the arrangement enacted bY
the Congress of the United Stat

13. Increase from $2,000 to $4,000 the Paid-up Death
Benefit for Retired: State Employees,
