CIVIL SERVICE LEADER, Tuesday, May 16, 1972

Two Women Sue N.Y. City
On Discrimination Charge

Sexual bias in the adminis-
tration of physical exams is
the charge in a legal suit
béing levelled against the
City Civil Service Commis-
sion by two women, seeking
to change their status from
provisional to permanent.
They are pressing to elimin-
ate physical exams for their
titles.

The City employees are Sophie
Stepinoff, an audio visual tech-
nician, and Marilyn Sontag, a
graphic artist, both employed at
Hunter College High School in
Manhattan.

Both took the written test for
the audio-visual aide technician
post, conducted last Jan. 21, and
passed, But the unconquerable
hurdle came up March 14, when
a physical consisting of an ob-
stacle course run and dumbbell
press took place.

The matter is now in Man-
hattan Supreme Court, before
Judge Max Bloom. The women
had been slated for firing May
4, but the judge reserved decl-
sion and ordered that they not
be fired pending his verdict.

“The Commission never stated
specifically what a physical
would consist of,” stated Ms,
Stepinoff, who had been in the
Provisional spot more than two

years, Prior to that, she had
done similar work at Lehman
College.

“The first I heard of it,” she
contended, “was when I received
4 notice in the mail saying to
come to 55 Thomas St. wearing
gum-soled shoes. I thought may-
be we would have to run around

and then they would examine
our hearts, It was called a per-
formance test —but we had no

idea what it would consist of.”

She explained that first the
candidates—43 males plus her-
self and Ms. Sontag—had to leap
a four-foot hurdle; then, run an
obstacle course in 20 reconds,
Everyone was successful through
this portion, But then came the
dumbbell lift.

“T lifted the 20-Ib. weight with
my left hand extended, and that
went all right," she recalled.
“Then with my right hand, I
tried to raise the 25-lb, dumbbell
and could only get it up to my
ear, not beyond that, I was then
told: “You failed.'”

Asked whether the exam no-
tice explained the scope of the
exam, she claimed she never re-
ceived such a notice.

Ms. Stepinoff also noted that
she filed on the last day “just 10
minutes before the deadline,”

and she “didn't examine the bul-
letin board too carefully” to see
if detailed information on the
physical had been posted.

She stated that the reason the
City apparently requires a phy-
sical “is that they say some
people have to carry the ma-
chines (projectors) to cars, but
I'm in my seventh year at this
work and we've never had to do
thot. We use a cart on wheels,
and ive never injured myself
during the entire time.”

Both civil service provisionals
have surveyed others taking the
test, and say that only a doc-
tor’s medical exam was given
during the 1950's, and that a
woman was appointed in 1970
‘with no physical whatsoever.”
The City's statement that they
always gave a physical is “ab-
solutely untrue,” according to

the women.

Meeting On New

Assembly changes made in the
one-year contract negotiated be-
tween the Civil Service Employ-

Administration will be held by

at 5:15 pm. in Hearing Rooms
1 and 2, 80 Center St.,on May 22.

So.omon Bendet, chapter pres-
ident, said one change of major
concern was the loss of incre-
ments in the future because an
Assembly amendment to the sal-
ary legislation has mandated ne-
gotintion of such increments in
future contract talks

Another area of concern, said
Bendet, was that the one-and-
one-half percent “bonus” on top
of the four percent current in-
crease is no longer guaranteed,

TRIER HER TEER EEE ETHIE IEEE:

THE PUBLIC

By DR. THEODORE WENZL
President,
Civil Service Employees Association

An Investment In America

Dear CSEA Member:

Since Series EU. 8. Savings Bonds first went on sale in |
1941, they have had the unqualified support of the American {
Labor Movement. With the growing importance of the Pay-
roll Savings Plan for the purchase of bonds, Labor has
proudly assuthed an increasingly important role in making
the Savings Bonds Program the success it is today. More
than $55 billion in U. 8. Savings Bonds are presently owned
by tens of millions of Americans.

e‘

I can think of no program that offers the direct oppg- ,
tunity for you to serve yourself and your country as does the
Savings Bonds Program. And in the light of the economic
challenges which face our nation, you along with all Ameri- |
cans should act on that opportunity now, |

¢ * © {

THE PAYROLL SAVINGS Pian, which provides for the
setting aside of a few dollars from each paycheck toward
the purchase of Series E Bonds, has been successful for mil- |
lions of Americans who never before had mastered the art,
of saving. It is not a deduction but part of your take-h
pay that grows with interest. Series E Bonds now earn
percent interest when held to maturity of 5 years, 10 months
—the highest rate in their history.

Savings Bonds are safe, replaceable without cost if lost, |
stolen, or destroyed, and easily convertible to cash in the |
event of emergency. They offer definite tax advantages and |

their interest rate is guaranteed to maturity. |

When you are contacted by a fellow worker in a Bond
Campaign in 1972—1I hope you will respond by enrolling In
the Payroll Savings Plan or by increasing your savings ‘|
you are already buying bonds. eo

Tn doing so, you will be putting your money where your 4
heart is—in America, ,

County Delegates’ Meeting

On Sunday, June 4, at 4 p.m., the fourth annual County
Delegates Meeting will convene at Friar Tuck Inn, Route 32,
Catskill, N. Y. This ts a beautiful, new hotel in northern
Greene County that promises top facilities for all our meet-
ings.

The importance of this special meeting to county, city,
town and school district employees cannot be overempha-
sized, Past meetings have accomplished much for us, It was
through these meetings that school districts first made
known their intense desire for separate chapters. Expanded
field representation was another result of past meetings,

It should not be surprising that this vehicle Is successful
for us. We have two days to discuss our goals, problems and
Successes, Other types of meetings can never be as pertinent
for us, Special committee meetings are limited to the com-
mittees’ purpose; general delegates’ meetings are so packed
with reports and general CSEA business that sometimes
local problems cannot be properly voiced; Board of Directors
meetings can never take the place of delegates’ meetings
and, indeed, Boards welcome the direction given to them by
delegates.

THERE WILL BE educational seminars, open committee
meetings, general sessions to discuss motions, and plenty of
time for the all-important “rap” sessions.

Our complete staff, the director of local government
affairs, his assistant, collective bargaining specialists and
Mrs. Gardner, office secretary, will be there to assist In any
way possible.

Costs are moderate. Thanks to Al Jeune, our stand-out
representative from Greene County, everything needed to
make this a successsful session is already available except
delegates.

May I urge all chapters and all units to send representa-
tives to this meeting. We need your ideas and your reactions
to ideas, You, your unit, and your chapter will benefit, and
because you do, CSEA will benefit,

See you at Friar Tuck Inn, June 4!

Mental Health

Most effective is the teamwork approach of psychiat-
rists, nurses, psychologists, social workers, occupational
and recreational therapists. All modalities of psychiatric
treatment are available—individual and group psycho-
therapy, hypnotherapy, electroshock, new multi-vitamin
and supplemental drug therapy. Bright cheerful colors
and spacious socialization areas immediately key this
modern therapeutic approach to the care of the mental-
ly and emotionally ill, the drug and alcohol addicted
and those in need of custodial care.

The Statewide Plan
is the best coverage
you can buy.

e Compare health insurance plans. It’s a sensible
thing to do before making a choice. But
Keep your eye on what's really important.

Never mind the little nickel and dime op-
tions that you can take care of yourself.
What about the serious illnesses and
operations? Hospital and medical
e@ costs that could wipe you out?

When it comes to realistic bene-
fits—there when you need them
most —the experienced STATE-
WIDE PLAN provides the most com-
plete protection ever devised for
public employees.

@ That’'sa fact. It’s what keepsus No.1,

Because there’s no such thing as

a “bargain” in health care protection.
Dollar for dollar. In terms of what you
pay and what you get.

But there IS a best buy.

Is The Merit System
Being Undermined?

HEN the State Legislatureapproved creation of the

Taylor Law it was assumed that work contracts would
be left to negotiation between the Office of Employee Rela-
tions, representing the State, and recognized bargaining
agents, such as the Civil Service Employees Assn., which
represents the vast majority of State workers.

Although the Legislature does have the final word on
any such contracts, it was assumed also that the final agree-
ments reached between the State and representative unions
would be approved unless there was some dire reason to
change the contract language and terms arrived at by both
sides.

We view with great alarm, therefore, two of several
changes made in the State-CSEA-negotiated contract by the
Assembly in the closing days of the Legislature. The first
of these changes is a mandate that Increments must be
negotiated in the next contract. Such a mandate cuts out,
possibly, one of the most important conditions of public
employment in the State. Increments came into being be-
cause they were a very sensible answer to the frustration
of lack of promotion opportunities that exist in so many
areas of civil service work,

The second dangerous change is setting definite layoff
procedures when such procedures were not even an item
under negotiation. This definitely Is an interference in the
process of collective bargaining.

Worst of all is that these changes were made in the
closing hours of the legislative session, which means that
the amendments were added too late for members of the
Legislature to give the changes any serious consideration
and too late for the Employees Association to exercise their
right to lobby and fight against such changes,

In all this, we see ominous signs as to the future of civil
service in New York State. In the more than three decades
this newspaper has been in existence there has never been
seen such an onslaught against the Merit System, ranging
from attacks on pension to removal of job security. Should
this onslaught continue, one can only expect that the real
goal of those who would undermine the present civil service
system is a return to the spoils system,

Public employees now must be on the alert more than
ever, not only to defend themselves against growing actions
to make civil servants the goats in every fiscal crisis but
also to preserve the very concept of the Merit System,

Social Security Q&A

Q. Lam program chairman for
® local civic organization and we
are of the opinion that we need
to know more about social secu
ity matters, especially Medicare,
Does the Social Security Admi
istration provide information for
such organization as ours?

A. Yes. Besides the speakers
which are available without cost,
we have all types of films and
Hterature, Contact your local eo-
ela) security office and they will
help you make the necessary
arrangements,

Q, Next month, I plan to ap~
ply for social security payments
on my husband's work record, I
have never had a social security
card. Do I need one?

A. No, @ social security num-
ber of your own is not required
in order to apply ¢or wife's ben~
efits, You will need your hus-
band’s social security number
and should bring your birth
or baptismal certificate, If you
have neither, you should bring
some old documents which show
your age or date of birth,

Don’t Repeat This!

(Continued from Page 1)

by Assembl, Speaker Perry B.
Duryea, Jr., of Suffolk County
has been apparent for some
time. However, another force
that is now rising to the surface
rests in the hands of Assembly-
man Joseph M. Margiotta of
Nassau County.

Assemblyman Margiotta was
first elected to the Assembly in
1965, and his status as a Repub-
lican legislator ts so junior that
he does not even rate the chalr-
manship of an Assembly Com-
mittee, Yet such powerful Sen-
ate figures as Warren M, Ander-
son, chairman of the Senate Fi-
nance Committee, Thomas La-
verne, chairman of the Senate
Education Committee, and John
J. Marchi, chairman of the Sen-
ate Committee on New York
City, all of whom have figured
prominently as potential succes-
sors to Earl W. Brydges as Sen-
ate Majority Leader, know that
Assemblyman Margiotta will ex-
ercise considerable influence in
the making of the final selection.

The seat of Assemblyman Mar-
giotta’s power resides in his
status as Nassau County Repub-
lican Chairman, whose delega-
tion in the Assembly typically
vote as a bloc. Moreover, it ts
likely that after the legislative
elections this November, the Nas-
sau County Republican delega-
tion will increase by three or
four, because the reapportion-
ment of legislative seats threat-
ens the election prospects of each
of the five Nassau Democratic
Assemblymen, Included within
the present Nassau Republican
delegation to the Assembly is
John E, Kingston, the Assembly
Majority Leader, who ts likely to
become Assembly Speaker, should
Duryea in 1974 leave the Assem-
bly for a race for Governor, and
assuming that Republicans re-
tain the Assembly majority.

Growing Power

Symbolic of the growing power
of Suffolk County on the Albany
soene is the recent appointment
of Suffolk County Republican
Chairman Edwin Schwenk to the
State Power Authority by Gov.
Nelson A. Rockefeller. Less than
15 years ago, Suffolk County had
three Assembiymen and one Sen-
ator. When the next session of
the Legislature meets in Janu-
ary, Suffolk will have nine As-
semblymen and four Senators.
Suffolk County is the fastest
growing county in the State, and
it is not unlikely that its legis-
lative delegation will show a
further increase at the next re-
apportionment ten years later.

It is generally conceded that
most of the Suffolk legislators,
if not all, will be Republicans.
This group, together with the
larger Republican delegation ex-
pected from Nassau, will make
Long Island the most powerful
vegion at the next legislative
session,

‘This growth in the power and
stature of Long Island at the
next session will necessarily di-
minisi the power of the New
York City group and the com-
bined powers of legistators from
the State's rural areas, From the
vantage point of the present, the
crystal ball shows that for the
next decade, the needs of the
suburban communities, rather
than the urban or the rural, will
shape the destinies of the State,

ampton, has been named to a

Civil Service
Law & You
By RICHARD GABA

Mr. Gaba is a member of the New York State Bar and chair-
man of the Labor Law Committee of the Nassau County Bar Assn.

Credit For Disabled Vets

The New York State Constitution, in Article V, Section
6, provides for a disabled veteran to receive ten points addi-
tional credit on a conrpetitive examination for original
appointment and five points additional credit in a promo-
tion examination. That section became effective on Jan. 1,
1950. On Feb. 27, 1952, the New York State Attorney General
rendered an opinion to the effect that in order for a dis-
abled veteran to receive the additional credits, he had to
be receiving disability payments from the United States
Veterans Administration as specified In Article V, Section
6, of the New York State Constitution. It was not sufficient,
in the opinion of the Attorney General, that a veteran was \
receiving disability benefits on a direct basis from the Armed
Service in which he served and in which he incurred his
disability. {

In 1958, the Civil Service Law was completely rewritten,
which resulted in a new section 85 referring to additional
credits to be allowed veterans in competitive examinations.
That section defines disabled veteran as a person who has
been certified as disabled and entitled to receive disability
benefits from the Veterans Administration, and, in addition,
one who is certified by the Veterans Administration as re- @
ceiving disability benefits from some other source upon
certification by the VA of the veteran's disability.

ON THE SURFACE, there appears to be a conflict be-
tween the constitutional provision, which requires the actual
receipt of payments from the VA, and the statutory provi-
sions which require certification from the VA that the
veteran is either entitled to receive disability benefits from
the VA or is actually receiving them from some other source,

The opinion of the Attorney General (1952 at page 122)
goes into an extended discussion of the conglomeration of
federal statutes pertaining to retirement in the Federal ser-
vice and discusses two Court of Appeals cases which bear
upon this issue, It would appear, after examining all of the
relevant material, that the purpose of the constitutional
requirement was merely to lock in the selection of the United
States Veterans Administration as the agent of the State
of New York for the purpose of determining whether or not
a veteran is a disabled veteran. There is provision in the U. S.
statutes for a disabled veteran who receives his retirement
benefits from his branch of the service, Le., United States g
Army, to waive a portion of those benefits received from the
Army and Instead to receive that portion from the United
States Veterans Administration.

However, this is nothing more than a bookkeeping entry,
and the rights of all concerned would appear to be ade-
quately protected by following the definitions contained in
Section 85 of the Civil Service Law which require only that
the VA certify the facts rather than make the actual mone-
tary payments to the disabled veteran.

The 1952 opinion of the Attorney General ought to be
re-examined in light of the purposes to be accomplished by
the constitutional provision and the amendments to the@®
Civil Service Law passed in 1958. I believe his opinion ts j

unduly restricting in light of the legislative purpose sought
to be accomplished.

Calls For Auxiliary

Police In Schools

Congressman Mario Biagg! last
week called for the use of auxil-
jary police in New York City
public schools to help cut down
on incidents of violence and
crime.

Biags!, a 23-year police force
veteran, added that special train-
ing should also be given to the
present school ascurity force in
the schools, Auxiliary police, he
said, should also be used more
extensively in the high crime
school districts to supplement
the regular security forces.

Cash Windfalls Await City Employees Below

A veritable windfall awaits
any present or former City em-
ployee who finds his name listed
below: these are only » few of
the thousands of persons who
are owed money by the City of
New York.

Whether from fgnoranee or
inadvertance, these employees
never claimed paychecks for
overtime, vacation pay, retroac-
tive compensation, uniform al-
lowance—some of these checks
are for many hundreds of dollars;
some for only a few, Because of
space limitations, The Leader
lists only those owed at least $75.

1€ you find your name here,
you must go to your agency's
payroll office and tell them the
date of the payroll from which

you are owed money. After they
haye located the check in their
records, they should fill out a
Cheek Pay Order memorandum
to the City Paymaster, a step
whieh begins the procedure for
drawing the money out of the
City Treasury, where unclaimed
wages are sent after being held
by the departments.

Beneficiaries of deceased em-
ployees may make claim by pre-
senting a Surrogate's Court or-
der, or a pald-in-full funeral bill
plus death certificate.

various Clty hospitals are owed
money from the payroll of

1, @. What's the oldest nonprofit, com:
munity-oriented, prepaid dental insurance
plan?

A. Group Health Dental Insurance
(GHOI), incorporated in 1948 and start
ed operations in 1954. It is the sister
corporation of Group Health Incorporated
(GHiI), first nonprofit, community-oriented
prepaid medical insurance plan in the
East

2.0. Who can get GHOI coverage?

A. Bona fide employer groups with
20 or more full-time employees. qualify
for GHO! enrollment, provided they con-
tribute at feast one-half individual
premium cost if individual coverage only,
oF total individual cost if dependents
are also covered.

3.0. Why is dental
important?

insurance 38

A. More people suffer from dif-
ferent forms of dental diseases than
require medical attention, Despite this
fact, many more have hospitalization pro-
tection; surgical coverage and medical
plans. Many people have postponed
visits to a dentist and as a result have
accumulated a large number of dental
Problems, GHO! subscribers are able to
seek out dentists immediately for:
initial exams, continued restorative,
Feparative and corrective treatment for
their dental problems; and maintenance
of dental health through periodic check:
ups, Dentistry is more susceptible to pre
ventive care than any other professional
discipline.

4.0, What are GHDIs basic
benefits?

A. Our basic dental benefits com
prise: examination and charting; clean
ings; X-rays; fillings; inlays; crowns; ex
tractions; gum treatments; emergency
treatments; in-hospital anesthesia; bed
side calls; repairs of broken dentures;
specialist consultations; and specialist
treatment for extractions and gum care.

dental

5, @. Can a group purchase more than
basic benefits?

A. Yes, Benefits for appliances and
devices (prosthetics) such as dentures,
fixed and removable bridges, etc. are
optional, They can be added, for addi-
tional premium, to basic benefits, with-
out deductible and waiting periods. Pros-
thetics are provided on 25%, 50%,
75°% and 100% of scheduled allowances.
The group's budget and dental needs
usually dictate benefits purchased. Cow
erage for Orthodontic benefits may be
added in Rider form to each Family Con-
tract at additional premium, Diagnosis
and initial Orthodontic appliances plus
active and passive treatment are includ
ed. Rider is available in 25%, 50%,
75% and 100% scheduled allowances.

6, O. Where may | receive dental ben-
efits when protected by GHDI?

A. Anywhere inthe United States,
Canada or, anywhere in the world for
that matter, provided the dentist ig
licensed in his particular location and
GHOI's contract covers his services.
GHDI's scheduled allowances for claims
are evaluated in American dollars for
benefits rendered outside the country.

7. @ What de | gain if | go to a
Participating Dentist?

A. Unlike other forms of Insurance
(commercial carriers), under GHDI over
4,000 Participating Dentists limit fees
to GHOIs Maximum Permitted Charges,
regardless of subscriber income.

8. GQ. What happens if | use a non
participating dentist?

A Provided services are covered,
you receive the same dental benefits
and the same GHO{ cash allowances.
You are free to choose any dentist,
anywhere. However, you may experience
considerable out-of-pocket expense in
excess of GHOI's scheduled payment
toward the services of a nan-participat-
ing dentist.

3. Q. Suppose there are ne Participating
Dentists in my area?

A. If enrolled, ask your group’s re-
mitting agent or administrator for a
spacial card. Bring it to your dentist.
He can mail it back to GHDI, enrolling
him as a Participating Dentist. Call
GHD! Subscriber Relations Department
for names of Participating Dentists near
you. Finally, we'll write nomparticipating
dentists in and around your local area,
inviting them to join GHOI,

10. Q. What are
Charges?”

A, "Maximum Permitted Charges”
are those amounts that Participating
Dentists’ fees will not exceed. This
charge-control arrangement lets GHDI
subscribers know in advance what their
benefits are and assures them the ex-
pense incurred won't exceed given
amounts.

‘One seldom hears of fires in

cause so many firemen and cops
live there. Sunday morning a
week ago, when Ladder 47 rolled
to Bronx Box 4604 and pulled
into 9 Met Oval, they knew they
had a good one going. They had
to position the truck on the
pedestrian walk. The fire on the
sixth floor was *h one with

with heavy smoke (the door into
the living room was open and
the fire was on its way in!)
boiling from the windows at
times obscuring the trapped vie-
tims. Lt. Jim Slavin and his
tigers from 47 lost no time. Fire-
man Dick Ahearn and his tiller
man, Fireman Renny Kaptein,
got the word to “go eit ‘em.”

“let's go!”
Because of the awkward posi-
tion of the truck in the walkway,
@ long distance from the build-
ing, the ladder had to be extend-
ed all the way and the distance
was just enough over 85 feet to
be a little short. As a result
Ahearn and Kaptein had a bit of
a trapeze act on their hands.
Ahearn went all the way and,
on the top rung, had to reach
way out to take a two-year-old
boy from Steve Tokash whose
hair was burning. The Ind was
shaking from shock and Ahearn
decided to hold on to him. Kap-
tein passed him on the ladder
and, with the tip bobbing up and
down like a see-saw, got the
man just before things blew.

firemen talk about when they

While the people don’t realize
it, this 1s very serious and cruel

CIVIL

Charge PERB With — First Drawing In Super Sign-Up

Improper Practice
Against NACC Aides

ALBANY—The Civil Service Employees Assn. has filed
an improper practice charge with the State Public Employ-
ment Relations Board against the Narcotic Addiction Con-
trol Commission, alleging that NACC officials unilaterally

changed a Dress and Grooming
Code for NACC employees after
it had been negotiated by CSEA
and NACC

The code, which became ef-
fective May 1, 1972, was origi-
nally set to take effect last Oc-~
tober, but a protest from CSEA
at its harshness initiated a series
of negotiating sessions. Finally,
in November 1971, CSEA’s nego-
tiating team agreed with the
NACC on a modified Dress and
Grooming Code that, according
to CSEA'’s Mary Blair, satisfied
all parties.

CSEA protested to NACC offi-
clals several weeks later, since
the agreement had not gone
effect, and was told that
posals for fur
the language of the code
being contemplated by NAC
but that these changes were not
substantive.

On Feb, 7, Ms, Blair reported,
a “final version” of the dr
code was given to CSEA, contain-
ing many changes which CSEA
considered of a substantive na-
ture. Following a meeting with
NACC officials in March, CSEA
maintained that it would not ac-
cept anything than the
agreements of the previous No-
vember's negotiating tons.

More Stalling

Another “final” yersion of the
code ‘yas given to CSEA in late
March, Ms, Blair said, but it still
did not reflect the provisions
agreed upon by CSEA and NACC
in November

“CSEA was forced to file the
improper practice cl Ms,
Bialr said. "when the NACC in
late April advised us that their
latest dress code would yo into
effect on May I, 1972, regardless
of CSEA’s objections

“We legally and duly negoti-
ated an agreement for a dress
code last fall,” she conel-.ded
“and now the Commission has
reneged and changed some of
the provisions in that code, uni-
laterally, CSEA maintains that
this was a blatant of bad

ner changes

Despite strenuous objections
from C the Legislature re-

CSEA contended that these new
layoff procedures had not been

agreed to establish a joint com-
mittee which would review the
laws and rules and recommend

nges during this fiscal year.
In any case," Wenzl said
“we have a written negotiated

Membership Drive To Be May 24 *

(Special to The Leader)

ALBANY—It was announced today that
the first drawing in the Civil Service Em-
ployees Assn. membership drive has been
advanced to May 24. Howard Cropsey, co-
chairman of the membership committee for
the County Division, sald that the date had
been pushed forward to avoid any possible
conflict with the Memorial Day weekend.
“We don't want anyone who might be a
winner to miss notification because he or
she is going to be away,” Cropsey stated. He
went on to add that all names of successful
recruiters submitted by May 24 will be in-
cluded in that drawing.

Cropsey noted “there has been a gratify-
ing response from the County Division mem-
bership, with many members signed up as
a result of the campaign so far.” He added
that with two more drawings after May 24,
there is still plenty of opportunity for all
CSEA members to win one of the 240 prizes
to be awarded for recruiting new members.
Among the prizes are trips to Portugal, the

said, “that some chapters are running short

as it indicates a lot of hard work on the
part of current membership, and we are
most thankful for it,”

He went on to add that any chapters low

“Why a training depart-
ment within an agency?”
asked Mary Schulman, who
heads the training division
of the Housing and Develop-
ment Administration.

‘Then she proceeded to tick off
the reasons why:

“The Department of Personnel
simply does not have a large
enough training department.

“They must service every
agency, and this just 1s not pos-
sible.

“We cannot expect Personnel
to fully service a technical
agency.

“The demand for training—
at least as far as HDA goes —
is phenomenal,”

To back up her last conten-
tion, Ms. Schulman culled
through the nine very different
training programs offered by the
division and began tallying the
statistics.

She came up with an approx-
imation of 1,200 enrollees all
together—outside of what is
called “the educational compon-
ent” and the special classes for
housing inspectors. HDA is re-
puted to have the largest scope
of training for civil servants with
the exception of the Personnel
Department and the uniformed
services.

and professional programs, two

‘The NYU Program is a three-
year stint, consisting of formal
classes at the Sehool of Con-
tinuing Education as well as field
assignments, Designed to turn
out rejocation personnel, the class
enrollment is 47.

“Some of our students have
never worked before,” points out
Ms, Schulman with special pride,
adding that “22 of our original
47 have completed it in two
rather than three years, and are
now ready to take the exam.”

Upward Mobility

‘The career Indder allows those
enrolled to move from real estate
alde—the entry title—at $5,600,
up through relocation assistant
and to the objective of real es-
tate manager at $8,650.

RONX, N.Y.

"These people are going from
& high school equivalency to al-
most a college degree; they are
working, going to schoo) for a
high school equivalency and at-
tending the program at the NYU
Real Estate Institute—all at the
same time.”

‘The movement upward permits
an equivalency for the aide po-
sition and one year as an aide
to automatically become a real
estate (relocation) assistant.
‘Two years as an assistant brings
eligibility for the top post; real
estate manager. Written tests
are involved for the two promo-
tional tities.

The counterpart career ladder
is for community liaison train-
ees, who can progress to assis-
tant community lalson worker
at the end of one year and to
full Maison worker at the end
of three,

‘The work here involves inter-
viewing tenants, landlords, bus-
iness people and community
group representatives and dis-
tributing informational mate-
rials, Both career ladder pro-
grams are funded through Title
VOI grants, administered
through the State's Office of

Field Training

Pield work focuses on HDA
urban renewal and code enforce-
ment offices in Brooklyn, Man-
hattan and the Bronx. Typical
assignments find the enrollee in
Brownsville, the South Bronx, or
Williamsburg, or some other
multi-ethnic ghetto community.

Also underway are community
development programs for the
Milbank-Frawley community tn
Central Harlem and for the Ja-
maica community, These pro-
grams seek to train staff in the

The Milbank-Frawley classes
haye 200 enrolled while the Ja-
maica Community Development

Program, held at York College In

The remaining five programs
in the professional area include:
low pressure boiler inspectors;
emergency housing repair staff;
emergency housing-burner re-
pair; executive and middle man-
agement training; Buildings De-

Coursework, of course, plays a
vital role in shaping. the direc-
tion of training. In the real es-
tate program, for example, em~-
phasis is on real estate law, real
estate finance, appraisal and
valuation, urban housing prob-
