There Must Be No Pay Cuts
In Any Downgrading Cases

NYC SET an example, in its recent job reclassification, by pro-
viding that no employee whose job is downgraded is to suffer a pay cut
fm consequence, The State undertook a sort of reclassification Jast
year, but this elementary safeguard was not included; in fact, the
State in some instances even tried to collect refunds from employees
whose title was downgraded retroactively, but in one court case came
a cropper. Now the Pederal government is preparing to do a wholesale
reclassification job, too, but the U.S, Civil Service Commission is op-
Posing any absolute guarantee that no employee who is downgraded
‘will be hurt financially, Both the Federal and the State governments
should follow NYC's pattern, not only in the Interest of justice, but
also employee morale,

Pay Safeguard No Panacea

An employee naturally Judges an employer by his deeds. When
the employer is not averse to reducing an employee's pay because the
Aitle is downgraded, the employer no longer can claim the respect of
his employee. When an employee's very livelihood is made the sub-
Ject of so-called scientific reclassification, there may be a great deal
of science In the punishment, but the employer is exposed as being
without heart,

Even when an downgraded employee's pay ts not reduced, his pro-
motion prospects certainly are, and he must feel miserable about his
Job and an employer so lacking in human understanding and depth
ef fecling. The protection that NYC guaranteed, necessary as /t was, is
mothing over which to crow, for it is a miserable policy to take money
@ut of an employee's pocket to finance the theories of job analysts
whose findings are more often subjective, Instead of being realistic
and objective, than it is well to advertise.

Compromise Proposal

The U.S. Commission is not exactly relentless in its stand about
pay reduction on downgrading, but is willing to compromise, so that
& downgraded employee would retain his present salary for a period
equal to his length of Federal service. Bills have been introduced by
Representatives Prank J. Becker (R., N.¥.), Edna P, Kelly (D., N.Y),
and John Lesinski (D. Mich.) whereby pay reduction, in cases of
@owngrading, would be prohibited by statute.

These measures the Commission opposes, on the ground that the
folution can be applied administratively, and such compulsion Js
bardly the way to deal with a difficult problem. Some bill providing
the necessary safeguard, however, is believed likely to pass, although
whether President Eisenhower would sign it, should the Commission
advise against it, is far from certain,

A Statute Is Needed

A bill should be adopted, so that the employees would be pro-
tected, since the Commission is unwilling to offer a firm guarantee.
‘The legislative course may not be the most welcome, as a civil ser-
vice commission should be able to cope properly with such an elem-
entary problem, but when the commission adopts an attitude of, say,
modified heartlessness, there is no recourse save through legislation.
Not the proponents of the bills, nor the employees who eagerly seek
enactment, but the Commission that fails to live up to modern, liberal,
and human standards of personnel administration is at fault, The
Commission should not be heard to complain if the complaint to
Against one of its own shortcomings,

Experience Teaches Bitter Lesson
Nor would employees be justified in welcoming the Commission's
e@ompromise proposal, a continuation of the administrative-solution
policy. Under that policy thousands of Pederal employees have been
downgraded, and their pay reduced,

In The Realm Of The Curious

One of the curious facts about downgrading is that, since it re-
Intes to the grade reduction of a title, it can result in pay reduction
ef an employee who is well entitled to upgrading, and a substantial
raise. In other words, the title is primary, the human being secondary.

While some titles may be out of line on rare occasions, downgrad-
fe must not be taken without safeguarding the present pey of any
employee in one of the unfortunate titles. The mere fact that an em-
Ployce is duty-bound to be Joyal to his employer is no denial of the
equal necessity of the employer being loyal to the employee,

Special Reasons Why Pay
Is Uppermost County Problem

WHAT INTERESTS county and other Joca) government employ.
ees most is pay, One might say that is true of all public employees,
and so it i, but in the ease of the county and related employees,
there is no special reason for the interest.

If one compares the pay structure in the State government witht
that in the various counties, for instance, one finds that county pay
for the regular employees runs behind that of State employees, im
most instances, and yet State employees did not get a fair break em
pay in last year’s reclassification effort,

It & therefore # case of county and other local government em
ployees being behind the eight-ball on the Jong green of the salary

pool table
More Politics In Counties

‘The lag may be traced historically to the origins of and develop
ment of county government, and the methods of legislation and ad~
ministration,

‘The business of politicians is politics. In county and other local
governments, politics enjoys # degree of ascendenancy that does met
quite obtain in State government, nor in NYC and some other elty
governments, either,

‘Two persons doing the same work In a county get far different
pay. You guess whether the employee who gets the wiridfall is a com-
petitive employee or an active political party worker er personal
friend,

Politicians must meet the minimum party requirements ef the
offices to which they are appointed or elected. They have retinues of
the faithful far more numerous than the number of jobs that can be
filled appointively. Sometimes even politicians wish that all the jobs
were under the Merit System. They wish that as a matter of self-
protection, In time the competitive and non-competitive method ef
filing jobs may become more prevalent, Indeed, the process is growing.
Meanwhile even the stanchest adherents of the Merit System are
willing to close an eye now and again In sympathy for a politician
harassed by party Jeaders and aspiring members of the faithful,

Good Side, Too

‘The political-mindeaness in the counues is not wholly disadvan-
tageous even to the run of employees, Politicians are readilly access=
ible, easy to talk to and get along with, and are patient listeners. This
element of human relationship is strong in the counties and serves
as compensation for # rather overzealous political outlook en job-
filling.

What the counties need, and other local governments that have
pay scales that are below what they should be, or are of conflicting or
haphazard, is a Salary and Career Plan, The State itself showed
the way, back in 1937, when the FPeld-Hamilton Law was enacted,
through the strong support of the Civil Service Employees Association,
Whether a State employee is satisfied or dissatisfied with his presen’
pay, he is satisfied with the Peld-Hamilton Law and its amended suc-
cessors, a a principle on which pay scales should be based, because
that law makes for a self-contained and consistent pay structure, one
in which the employees can have confidence. In most of the counties
and jocal governments no such scientific basis exists.

NYC went along for more than three decades without an everall
reclassification. The first stage of such an undertaking has just been
put into effect. The improvement has been marked. In fact, as the
plan was evolving, and The LEADER was publishing accounts of i,
NYC employees phoned and wrote, asking if what was being published
was true. The improvements were so excellent, in some instances, thas
the naturally dubious employees sought confirmation, and even whem
that was given, would not believe what they were told. Finally, when
the resolutions were voted, and the new pay plan put into effect om
July 1 last, they knew that the articles had set forth nothing but the
truth, Yet the NYC Salary and Career Plan is not perfect, it leaves
many inequities uncorrected, and it will involve continuous study and
readjustment, before it can become the model that Mayor Robert ¥,
Wagner sincerely hopes it will be,

Aloofness Dying Out

The counties and other local governments can Jook forward to the
same sort of improvement, for there is no reason why the State and
NYC should have formalized pay plans, while local branches of gov-
ermment have more or less haphazard ones, and pay inequities con~-
tinue, The remedy is redress through the Boards of Supervisors, ew
other authority in the local government, in @ sincere and dignified
effort to raise the standards of personnel in those areas in which they
jag behind those of other branches of government,

One of the difficulties in regard to obtaining remedies in counties
and other local government is the autonomous nature of the govern~
ment in each unit, not mentioned with any implication that this situe
ation should be changed, but merely to point up the separate efforts
that must be made, The Association is making such efforts, and re
ports encouraging headway.

Another problem in #0 many counties and other jocal govern
ments In the State is mistrust by county officials of any representa-
Uon of employees by an organization, The Civil Service Employees As-
sociation has itself felt this effect, though it ls a group that conducts
ita affairs on the highest plane, has officers and counse) and field re-
presentatives of the highest calibre, and in its constitution expresses
association policy as opposed to any strike by its members, In some
local jurisdictions, public officials went along with the idea of some
Organization, not the CSEA, representing employees, and in a few
weeks found itself with a sivike on ite hands .That did not make the
task of the CSEA any easier Since then much progress has been
to convince county officials that in dealing with the CSEA they face
men and women of thelr own calibre, who can see both sides to a ques~
tion, who are reasonable, and whose arguments are always sound,
Moreover, there is never in the background any threat of extreme

action, County officials whe have been won over bi scceptanee -

THE PUBLIC
EMPLOYEE

By JOHN F. POWERS
President
Civil Service Employees Association

Bats vee

A Great Issue — And A Personal Word

ON FRIDAY, we are going to consider a matter of
great importance to all of us in the Association,

The delegates of all our chapters, representing more
than 63,000 employees, are going to make the decision;
and as your President, I want to put this matter up to you
in the way it should be put.

The issue, as presented to the delegates, is: Shall we
increase the dues of our Association? And if so, by how
much?

Th real issue, however, is this:

Shall we continue to build our Association into a
stronger, more effective machine for the achievement of
employee goals—like higher pay, better retirement, more
individual protection against administrative whim? Or
shall we say we have reached our height, and from now
on we shall become weaker, less effective?

The Only Way

This is the only way in which we can look at the is-
sue next Friday; for an organization does not stand still,
I have said this before: either we move forward or we
shall fall backward.

We need more dues,

All of you realize that we are meeting competition
from organizations which are charging their members up
to $36 a year and more. Can we deal with competition at
our present rate of $5 and $67 You know the answer.

Pay Increases

We want to undertake an all-out crusade for pay in-
creases, and I have asked the Salury Committee to come
up with a plan which I will then submit to the Board of
Directors and the Publie Relations Committee for sug-
gestions. We have fared poorly in the recent State
salary allocations, We can’t meet this situation by
merely pleading for higher pay, I foresee the need for a
campaign that may be more sweeping than any of its kind
we have ever undertaken. It will cost money to carry on
that kind of drive, But unless we get an increase in dues,
we can’t undertake it with the fullness it require

To County Members

And let me say to the County members: Salary
drives are necessary for you, too. You haven't fared as
well as you should in your wages. The Association wants
to take up your salary problems in a thorough-going man-
ner. But you must help us to do it. We need researchers,
more field staff! and negotiators to go to work on your
problems. We need to build up the necessary sympathetic
climate in your area to put through the pay increases,
We have the will and the know-how to do it, but not the
money.

We need a dues increase to do the job,

The Necessities

This is only one example of the reason for higher
dues, I have told you, in my columns, of other necessities
—not thought up out of thin air by me, but rather coming
out of the proper demands of the employees themselves.
We need to do more about retirement. We need to build
up a reserve an emergency, We need to provide more
legal services for individuals who require help, We must
be able to increase our legislative efforts, We need
to streamline our home office operations by install-
ing more business machin #0 that you can gain swifter
attention to your problems, We need sufficient personnel
so that any time you send a letter, a complaint, or a prob-
Jom to headquarters, it will be handled efficiently, We
need more field representatives to recruit more members
to give us more strength, We need an address in the metro-
politan area, where we have a great untapped potential,
and where many of the State officials are available.

What increase are we seeking? No overwhelming
amount, The Board of Directors has recommended a fi-
gure “not to exceed” $10 a year. That would come to less
than 10c a week more than we're paying now.

A Personal Word

Td like to add something personal,

I have gone all out on this dues increase question.
That's no secret, Some of my, friends have said; “John,

ALBANY, July 25 — A former
State Liquor Authority official has
some harsh words to say about
the operations of the Budget Di-
vision and the Civil Service De-
partment.

‘The criticism was volved by
George Butterly, former deputy
commissioner and chief executive
officer for the authority, In a new
column he is writing for the Bey-
erage Retaller Weekly, a trade
paper. Mr, Butterly, a Republi-
can, resigned recently to go into
public relations work.

Shifted Like Pawns

Mr, Butterly charged SLA em-
Ployees, because of budget restric-
; tions, have been shifted like pawns
in getting the work done.

“It ts high time,” the former
Dewey administration official
wrote, “that official Albany (Budg-
et and Civil Service) gaye decent
thought and consideration to these
perplexing problems and provided
the SLA with suitable personnel to
do the Job which is expected of
them.”

Calls for Survey

The former SLA official called
on the State administration to
assign its budget management unit
to make a first hand survey of
conditions in the authority, He
also called for proper civil serv~
jee job title structures,

Because SLA officials year after
year have been under orders to
“restrict the budget,” Mr, Butter-
ly wrote, it became almost impos-
sible for the authority to obtain
the staff necessary to handle the
work,

‘Fol-de-Rol”

He said it Was the practice when
any new position was found to be
necessary a position in another
category had to be eliminated.
"This ts fol-de-rol,” he conckided.

Mr. Butterly also wrote:

From a survey made 4 fow sea~
sons ago it developed that New

what do you want to do this for? You're stepping into a
kettle of hot water.”

Yes, I've stepped into a kettle of hot water. I have
done this with eyes open, I have done it because a man
must be true to himself, And I have seen what it will
mean to our organization if we do not do the thing we
have to do—however unpleasant, If, as President of the
Civil Service Employees Association, I had failed to take
this action, T would have been false to myself, false to my
fellow-employees. I have fought for this dues increase,
with all the heartache involved, because T want to see the

future of the Civil, Service Employees Association assured.

SLA Downgrading
Bitterly Criticized
By Former Official

York State was one of the lowest
operating commissions in the nu-
tion based upon agency expendi-
tures against tax and fee Income,
Regardless of that fact it became
almost impossible for the Author-
ity to obtain the stalf necessary
for handling the tremendous vol-
ume of detail and paper work,

‘The agency was created in the
mid-depression years and the
original salaries indicated it, It
was truly @ depression baby, But
from the start it was obvious that
it took manpower to do the ex-
tremely difficult work at hand,

“Paper Work’

In the mid-forties we found in-
vestigators and auditors assigned
to the license bureau for paper
work, instead of being assigned
to the fleld where they belonged,
After constant pressure and in-
sistence that a change was nec
essary the investigators were
returned to thelr proper stations
and license examiner positions
were created to handle the bul-
wark of the detail

However, at renewal times and
other pressing periods Investiga-
tors and auditors, confidential alds
and public relations personnel (a
la Albany office assignments) are
still shifted as pawns in a game
to do the clerical work of the H-
cense bureau. Tt is high time that
official Albany (budget and civil
service) gave decent thought and
consideration to these perplexing
problems and provided the SLA
with suitable personnel to do the
job which ix expected of them,

Bpeetal Consideration to Civil Service Employees

One of the charges made by
State employees hired on @ con-
tract basis, who have been nott-
fied that they can't be members of
the New York State Employ-
ees Retirement System, is that
the honor of the State is at stake.

They say that when they ac-
cepted contractual employment
they were officially advised that
they were eligible for membership
in the system, and they have let~
ters or memorandums to prove it.
Also, they add that once the State
has given ite word, it is morally
and equitably bound to keep ft. If
one Attorney General renders an
opinion that such membership in
the system is legal, as John J.
Bennett did, and another Inter
says such membership Is illegal, as
did the present Attorney General,

| By JACK SOLOD

The year is 1929. You have just entered State service as a psy
chologist, one of ¢ irst in the Correction Department. In your early
| years of service you were recognized as an authority in your field and
| helped lay the groundwork for the present system of classification of
prisoners in State prisons. During the administrations of Governor
Roosevelt and Lehman, on many occasions you were lauded for your
splendid contributions to State service. Your loyalty and devotion to
your job and the State have atamped you as a success in life and a
credit to mankind, Your work in the department has helped many
prisoners upon thelr release to lead a decent and useful life, The State
through your splendid efforts bas saved great amounts of money by
your ability to help rehabilitate and straighten out many trouble-
some offenders ,

While in State service you dreamed of spending the declining
| years with your wife in peace and with the inner satisfaction that
comes from # job well done,

1 Now you are 66 years old and your wife

s 65 and you want to re-

| tire, The giant State Ri ‘ement with assets of more than $600,000,-
| 000 informs you that your full pension with no option Js the magnifi-

cent sum of $1,400,39 a year.!! ‘This is your “reward” for 26 of the
| best years of your life, This is the pat on the back by the former Gov-

| ernors who cited your work as an “outstanding contribution.” This

$1,400.39 is the sum which will bring you the peace and tranquility
which is due you for your splendid work in State service,

| Social Security in this particular case would now pay $180 —
month or $2,160 a year with a total contribution by the employees of
only $1,200!! ‘The so-called pension system is not a pension system;
it is Just a huge grab by octopus tentacles devouring, deluding and
disillusioning the many State employees,

Dr, William Argento, ploneer in prison psychology, outstanding
faithful State employee, we salute you and at the same time sympa-
thine with you, because for you there will be no retirement, The State
has made sure that you continue in your job ntil 70 years of age, and
then be kicked out with the almost certainty that the State Retire-
ment System will wind up with some of your money,

MENTAL HYGIENE MEMO

THE MENTAL HYGIENE employee, long the underdog of State
warvice, is cautiously beginning to sense that 1966 may be THE year
fer adjustment of the work-week im institutions, and for liberalized
wetirement provisions,

‘The first step in obtaining the 40-heer work-week has yet to be
taken—agreement among the employees themselves on how to get the
shorter week without sacrificing present 48-hour pay. The Mental
Hygiene Employees Association will conduct a survey on the subject,
may come up with some of the answers at ite July 28 mecting in
Albany.

Once the question of “What are we going to ask for™ ts resolved,
& strong, united elTort can be exerted om legisiators at the coming
peasion.

CHANCES ARE brighter that retirement after 25 years’ service
will become a reality, The special State Commission studying the en-
tire retirement set-up will report at the upcoming legislative seasion.
Im addition to retirement after 25 years’ service, employees seek in-
ereased death benefits and vesting of retirement contributions, Gov-
erper Harriman’s interest in problems of the aging, including retire-
ment, is seen as a good omen,

One department chief wondered If the employees fully appreciate
the extra “bile” in take-home pay which the 25-year plan would in~
volve.

“We know It'll cost more," an employee remarked, “but after 25
Years’ service at a mental institution, we've had it~

e €718

WHATEVER the decision of the Appeal Board on attendants’ pay
will be, it'll be made s00n. Executive Secretary Louis A. Liussi Jr, said
the matter wil be placed on the Board's agenda “for an early hear-
img.” The attendants seek a four-grade jump, from 4 te 8

‘The Mental Hygiene Department, which has consistently gone to
bat for higher pay for its employees, is offering to assist those mak-
ing salary appeals.

MUCH THOUGHT is being given by the Mental Hygiene Depart-
ment to eliminate inconsistencies in its classification. Why ls an em-
ployee performing certain duties called industrial shop worker at

ene hospital, and occupational therapist, occupational instructor, and
printer, at three other institutions?

The department is plugging away at the complicated classifica-
fon task, with the situation in the industrial shops drawing current
attention.

A large part of the problem was created oddly enough, by suc-
eesses in treatment of the mentally ill, Use of new drugs, and more ex-
tensive use of traditional methods, were adopted at the same time
the State hospital system faced a shortage of trained personnel. At- |
tendants, and others, were pressed into such service, Now comes the
ob of giving these emplo: appropriate titles, and slotting them
tate the proper pay grade.

“It's an almost overwhelming job,” said one department official,

“But our goal is the finest possible cinssification set-up,”

Long Way Still to Go
But Road Gets Better

y whether in pay or better hours-or working condi-
tions, by citing comparisons, with conditions in private in-
dustry. This is proof enough that the long, hard fight
public employees wage through their organizations is to
establish parity with employees in private industry.

On the whole, the gap is still wide. In some respects
the public employee may have a bit of advantage, perhaps
in pensions, although private industry has about caught
up on that score, or perhaps the little longer vacations.
But the pay schedules are often a sorry comparison with
those of private industry.

The Forbidden Phrase

One of the difficulties public employees face is the
rarity of acknowledged collective bargaining. There has
been improvement on this score, but there is still an offi-
cial dread of full acceptance of the collective bargaining
principle.

Government has always encouraged collective bar-
gaining in private industry, the Federal government by
legislation; but as for practicing collective bargaining it-
self, government has always been shy, even in the admini-
stration of President Franklin D. Roosevelt. He wrote a let-
ter to an employee group explaining why it was impossible
for the government to bargain collectively, stating that
the government represented all the people, for whom no
one agency could speak, nor could the government parti-
eipate as a whole. Coming from a liberal, that was ac-
eepted as the gospel of the hour. Conditions have changed,
mew aspects have arisen.

Government has always found some ponderous rea-
son for refusing to do what it does not want to do. Soon
the time will come when the old dodge won't work.

Watch What NYC Does

One may confidently expect that the new labor rela-
tions program for NYC employees will include a provision
for collective bargaining. Not that the phrase itself will
be embodied in the basic code soon to be established, to
supplant the temporary one now operating. Expect the
substance to be included, if not the form.

If one is willing to waive nicities of definition, he
might even say that collective bargaining actually exists
in NYC now, and that in the State government there is at
least an approach to it in the free use of the conference
method, while it must be admitted that the Federal gov-
ernment is still holding aloof.

NYC showed the way to health insurance for its em-
ployees, with the Federal government about to follow
suit 15 years later, The Federal government has granted
some significant fringe benefits, with more to follow, This
sets a good example to State and City.

With some ground won in each jurisdiction, prospects
of more-or-less equality of benefits for public workers in
the years ahead seem bright. The trouble is, however, that
again the comparisons must be made between govern-
ment and government, or on the whole, the comparison
between private industry and goyernment would be too
hard for government to take. But conditions are improv-
fing, liberalism is afoot, The ultimate outcome is in the
lap not so much of the public officials as in that of the
able and aggressive leaders and the loyal members of em-
ployee groups.

Comment

FINDS LEADER PAVES WAY
ON PENSION STORY
Editor, The LEADER;

news you have been publishing ex-
clusively about contract employees
and the State Employees Retire-
mont System, You have rendered
@ real public service,

‘There is no need for any heated

or contract workers, Evidently the
situation is garbled. A contract
employee can not be a member of
the system. Plain enough. That was
Attorney General Jacob K. Javits,
opinion. The State Comptroller is
bound by it, But some contract
workers, who joined the system, not
only with the approval of the sys-
tem Itself, but in some Instances
on its invitation or insistence, are
now being cast out of that system.
Such anomalies indicate that a
study of the Retirement System
is in order, It should be made as
carefully as the able Preller Com-
miasion ts annlyzing the Civil Serv-
ice Law,
ADAM E, FERRIS.

APPLAUD GOVERNMENT

ON AGE-LIMIT REMOVAL
Editor, The LEADER,

Efforts are being made by many
agencies, public and private, to
encourage employment of persons
over 45, Instead of regarding them
as undesirable “older” workers,
Tet us therefore applaud the
move of the U.S, Government In
removing maximum age })mits for
examinations. And let us hope that
“old” age ia not a barrier when It
comes to appointment. That's what
really counts,

OVER-45

RADIO, TV AND

CIVIL SERVICE

Editor, The LEADER:

Now I know what radio, televi-

mon! Ive been trying W Reb a

school diploma but net too much
special training, and what do I
find? Civil service commissions are
holding off their cholce Jobs for
the cooler months, in hopes of at-
tracting @ larger “audience.

WARM-WEATHER WORKER

Please accept my thanks for the

arguments by officials, employees,

TIME ovr

tery
O candidate found it quite easy to answer this question in @
civil service test; “If you were asked to find the telephone num-
ber of Qilgo I. Qitler, what would you do?”
Bhe replied: “I would look in the telephone book, starting with
AAA, until I came down to Q, and then would find where QI was.”
The examiner commented: “She could find where the QT was, all
right, but what I'd like to know Is, where could anybody find her 1Q?*

Scholasticism Rebounds

So many exams require a college degree, as a minimum require~
mont, that educators are stressing the need of a college education if
one desires to rise to positions of importance in public employ.

One director of an in-service training course advised members
of his class who had no degree to attend college at night. It would
take longer, but would prove worth while, Those members listened in-

tently.
} The next day the local newspaper reported his talk. The headline
sald: “Educator Shows Need of Education.”

Chapter And Verse

Public relations hus become a major force in police administra-
uon.

Tn an attempt to instruct recruits on the proper way of dealing
with the public, they ure asked questions, Their answers then are
rationalized, They wre complimented when right, and corrected when
wrong.

One recruit was asked what he would do if some girl rushed up
| t him when he was patrolling his park beat at night, and screamed
that a strange man had suddenly seized her in his arms and kissed
her,

Remembering earlier instruction he had received about the neces-
sity of fully visually a crime in an attempt to solve it, the recruit
| answered; "This case falls under Article VIT, Section 4-a of the de-
parimental rules, requiring tbat the crime be reconstructed."

Odd Kind Of Free Pass

Physicians who work for government often have to face far more
hectic situations than do medicos in private practice. While the habit
of writing out prescriptions quickiy often makes the directions even
| more illegible to the patient than they would otherwise be, a harassed
institutional physician may haye to exercise even greater speed, and
thus will write with still tess legibility,

A young man under temporary observation in a menial institu-
tion, who finully recovered his equilibrium, saw no need of having
| @ prescription filléd, though tt would not cost him a cent, Instead,
| he exhibited it any time that he had to go any place where an admis-
| sion price was charged. Thus did he get in free at the racetrack, the

sion and civil service have in com~! poig Grounds, and Madison Square Garden, But whe
| the prescription to enter the Public Library on Fort
good-paying public job, have a high! nyc, he was told that the library does not fill medical prescriptions,

Man And Fish

The difference between a public employee and 4 founder is that
&@ public employee's problem is to keep his head above water, while a
founder's problem is to keep his head below water.

PLEASE STATE the schedule
for the NYC raises, concerning the
increase itself for the future, also
the 40 per cent differential.

LMU,
Answer — The regular raises are
in effect now, but employees will
continue to receive only their for-
mer pay until January, when they
will bogin to get their full checks,
including raise, Lump-sum pay-
ments will be made for the unpaid
difference in April, 1956. The 40
percent retroactive pay goes only
to those employees who served
during all of 1954, and whose pay
was below the minimum of the
new grade, They are brought up
to the new minimum on the same
basis as the other employees who
get a raise, with the January and
April dates effective, The 40 per-
cont differential, back to July 1,
1954, is expected to be paid in a
lump sum in October,

WHEN a candidate passes an
exam, even if there are other
parts of the test to follow, is he
not already an eligible? LS.

Answer — The situation differs,
depending on circumstances. If the
part that he passed is the only
competitive or non - competitive
one, and the other parte are quali-

if more than one part of the exam
is compotitive, as used to be true
of the NYC police test — the writ~
ten test and the physical were both
competitive — he is not an oligible
until he has passed both,

WHY was the Personnel Council
established in NYC only recently,
whereas there has so long been a
need of coordinating personnel re-
Jations? W.E.C.

Answer — That is one question
we find unable to answer,

IN THE CASE of the unemploy-
ment insurance examiner promo-
tion test, in which clerks who
sought promotion in the State De-
partment of Labor, claimed they
should have been rated differently,
did the court really hold, in dis~
missing the petition, that no ad-
vance notice was necessary to can-
didates that one part of the test
would have to be passed to quali-
fy for the other part? LO.W,

Answer — No, The court held
that although the State Civil Ser-
vice Commission did not inform
the candidates to that effect until
they were already assembled, and
ready to take the test, all were
treated equally, and that therefore
the notice, though short, was suff-

Question, Please

there been not even that much
notice, the exam would have been
improperly conducted, That would
have meant the cancellation of
the promotion list, an awkward
situation, since all who passed the
test on the basis of the Commis=
sion’s rating method have been
promoted.

T AM on the NYC personnel as-
sistant lst. Does the present
merging of the personnel admini-
stration classification with the
clerical-administrative occu-
Pational group mean that our
chances of being appointed are
negligible? Is the position of per=
sonnel assistant equivalent to the
position of personnel officer?

PLO,

Answer—Tho personnel admini-
stration classification is not sete
ted yet, The Board of Estimate
defeated the resolution. No merger
with the clerical classification, as
originally proposed, based on the
assumption the resolution would
be adopted, is in sight. The Board
may vote 4 resolution approving
such a classification, restricting
appointments to the Personnel
Department only, The candidates
therefore probably did not waste
their time and money, The pere

fying, he 4s an eligible, However,

clent. The court added that had

sonnel officer job is diferent,

have to encompass such ramifica-

the exact reason for such discon-| tions as these:

1, There are both legitimate and
iMegitimate cases of contract em-
ployment, and « sharp distinction
would have to be made between
the two, not too difficult task in
fact, but one fraught with serious
political implications. It has some-
times been charged that political

1a} 804 personal pay-offs: are fre~

quently made by hiring persons on
contract basis, thus evading, if not
violating, the Civil Service Law.

2. Cases of retired employees
would have to be coordinated with
those of present employees, both
types working under contract, so
that proper rules would prevail
for both, providing legal consixt-
ency.

3. Clarification must be made of
the legality of a State pensioner
also working as a contract em-
ployee, especially if he is doing the
same job he did before, and draw~
ing both pension and salary. As a
matter of administrative policy,
Pensioners are often hired as con-
tract workers, but the legality of
such practice in particular cases
in disputed by some civil service
lawyers. Those who doubt point

out that the object of a retirement
system is to enable a member to
be retired on an allowance, not
to have the State increase his in-
come enormously, although pen-
sioners who are professionals and
specialists may be hired contrac-
tually,

4. Those who work in the guise
jof contract employees, yet are as-
signed to a regular, continuing job,
attend the office each working day,
and are under the supervision and
control of the department all the
time, In performing non-expert
work must have their real status
defined, Lawyers sty such con-
tract hiring is illegitimate,

A Perplexed Situation

Here are other ramifications
that would have to be studied:

A firm is hired as an indepen-
dent contractor, for instance, to
do field photographic work for a
department, This kind of work
requires an organization. An in-|
| dividual could not be on call at!
all hours, and in various locations,
But what about the legality of
employees of that organization be-
coming members of the Retirement
System? They are not employees
of the State or any of its sub-
divisions, but of private industry.

Another

Another case has come to light
in which an employee feels he has
been greatly wronged by being
dropped from membership in the
State Employees Retirement Sys-
|tem because he is a contract em-
ployee.

‘The case is that of Fred Shore,
|now administrative officer of the
| East Meadow Schoo! District, Long
Island. Formerly he was an em-
ployee of the State Comptrolier’s
office, In the previous administra-
| tion, He held @ contract job in
| connection with a study of consti-
tutional law as affecting taxation,
particularly regarding NYC. He
| did such an excellent job that
| Prank C. Moore, then Comptroller,
recommended him for appoint~
ment to the staff of the Retire-
| ment Division, The Comptrolier is
| the head of that system,

was told by the Retirement Sys-
tem that he would have to pay
\farsewigpeaven to an annuity ac-
count, looking toward retirement
eventually, for the period covered
by his previous contract service.
He gladly paid the amount,

He accepted a flattering offer
from private industry, and next,
after three years, the Long Island
school district position. The school
district wrote the Retirement Sys~
tem, saying it was eager to con-
tribute toward the pension, as an
employer must, and received a
reply saying that Mr, Shore was
tligible for membership resump-
tion. Thus he became « member
of the system again — so he
thought, But one day recently he
Got a letter from the State Comp-
troller that advised him otherwise,
and stating that the Attorney
General had ruled that contract
employees are ineligible to Re-
Urement System membership, Mr,
Shore became furious, He consult-
ed counsel.

Others in the same predictment
also have consulted counsel, but
‘there is no present indication that
any court case will result, Bither
some solution will be found ad-
ministratively, or legislation will
be sought to clarify an admittedly

Loss of Pension

General was bound to interpret
and construe the Jaw, but the Jaw
can be changed, The object is to
save the pensions of thousands of
employees who otherwise would
lose them, and would get nothing
more than the return of their con-
tributions, with Interest. The an-
nuity their money otherwise
would buy would never materialize,
nor would the employer-paid pen-
sion, the larger part of the retire~
ment allowance, and the really

staggering loss,
Checks Returned

Some of the employees, on re-
ceiving their checks, sent them
back to Comptroller Arthur Levitt, |
but the Comptroller sent them|
right back to them. Actually, the |
Comptroller ts caught in the mid-
dle of a Jegal buttle over what the
law provides, in which he has to|
follow formal opinion rendered by |
the Attorney General, even though
he might personally prefer that
the membership could be con-
tinued.

Not only counsel informed the
employees that sending back the
checks was hardly the best course,
and that the checks should be in-
dorsed under protest, with the
Protest clearly written under the
indorsement, and the checks then
deposited in one's bank account.
‘The administrative director of the
Retirement System himself gave
employees such advice, informally.
‘Thus the checks were reluctantly
deposited.

Mr, Shore was paid $4,050 a
year when he worked for the
Comptrolier, and even after trans-
fer to the Retirement System he
did not find it dificult to get a

Contract Employees Dropped
From Pension System Fight Back

The Comptroller has been advised
in letters he received recently that
such employees of private industry
actually had been accepted as
members of the Retirement Sys
tem in previous administrations,
‘The question asked is; “What law
authorizes contract employees of
private industry to be members,
while prohibiting State contract
workers to be such"?

Since membership in the Retire-
ment System is open also to ¢m-
ployees of local government, ex~
cepting NYC, the study would in«
clude contract jobs in towns, vil-
ages, school districts, authorities,
and other public agencies that are
employer-members of the system.

Different in NYC

While the NYC retirement sys-
tems operate under different Jaws,
the principle applicable to the.
State and other local government
| turisdictions may be equally sp-
plicable to NYC, which however,
has never gone in for contract em-
ployment on any scale, In NYC,
jobs are in the exempt class, to be
filled informally, or in the non-
competitive class. which the Civil
Service Law authorizes, But im
other branches of local govern
ment, the contract workers enor-
mously exceed those that the State
hired even during the most poli-
tically generous years,

Examples Given

The so-called illegitimate cases
include both those of dubious
legality of hiring, and proper hiring
but possibly improper admission
In the system,
Examples:

1. Employees of private industry
‘Retirement System membership
of doubtful legality).

2. Employees who occupy one
State position, supposedly full-
time, yet have a contract job with
the State to perform duties during
the very hours for which they are
paid as regular employees. (Legale
ity of contract hiring doubtful;
pension credit for regular job not
necessarily in issue)

3. A State pensioner returns te
State service on a contract basis,
and draws both his pension and
his salary, A case is recalled of an
employee who even returned to
perform the same duties, nothing
| being changed, except his income,
(Violation ef Civil
Laws in issue; spirit of Retirement
Law said to be violated)
