At Syracuse Region 5 meeting last month in Ithaca, these three
CSEA boosters show off their hats that advertise the advantages of

CSEA membership. From left are Region second vice-president Pat-
ricia Crandall, Willard delegate Beverly McDonald, who was mer-
chandising the hats, and Region treasurer Helene Callahan. The
crocheted hats have meta! insets made from cans.

County/State Divisions
meetings.

Region 5, headed by CSEA
vice-president Richard Cleary, at
its meeting at the Ramada Inn
here, elected officers for its State
Workshop as a first atep in this
direction.

Thus, in the future, County
delegates and State delegates will
mect separately to discuss mat
ters of particular interest, and
then combine for full regional
meetings to approve official pol
ley.

This step corresponds to the
operation of CSEA’s statewide
Board of Directors, which is com-
posed of separate County and
State Executive Committees, who
usually meet separately first and
then jointly

Elected as the first state chair
man for the Region was James
Moore, president of Utica Psychi
atric Center chapter. Also elected
was Jacqueline Burgess, Bing-
hamton chapter, as secretary
‘They announced that they would
start immediately to formulate
procedures by which the State
Workshop could serve as a cata-
lyst in resolving problems en-
countered by state chapters with-
in the region.

A County Workshop has long
been in operation within the Re-
ion, with Praneis Miller, presi-
dent of Oswego chapter, serving
as president. Other County offi-
gers are vice-chairman Peter
Grieeo, Jefferson; secretary Le-
ona Appel, Onondaga, and treas-
urer Marsha Coppola, Jefferson.

Syracuse Region is also the
only region to have an executive
vice-president—in this case, Loule
Sunderhaft, of Oneida — having

Regional delegates, meeting in

on the constitution and by-laws.
The report was presented by

lengthiest matter on

Much of the rest of the meet
ing was given over to committee
reports. The region has one of
the most highly developed com-
mittee systems in the statewide
organization. As part of the regu:

tees meet early in the morning of

Orange Negotiations Postponed Again
As PERB Orders New Representation
Vote On CSEA As Bargaining Agent

(Special to The Leader)

GOSHEN—The Public Employment Relations Board (PERB) has ordered a new elec-
tion for the right to represent 1,300 Orange County employees, based on mistakes made by
the county government during the last election June 7

That election was won by the Civil Service Employees Assn., 624 to 540, over the

Service Employees International
Union,

A date for the new election had
not been set at presstime, but it
was believed it would be held
sometime in early December.

Tt was the first time a CSEA
victory had been overturned. The
PERB ruling stressed that CSEA
had done nothing improper be-
e, during or after the election,
and added that “the mistakes of
the county were not occasioned
by malice against the SEIU.”
However, the state agency de-
cided a new election must be
held, further setting back the
date on which contract negotia-
tions with the county can begin.

PERB itself admitted in its
decision that it is. concerned
“that the election and its after-
math have delayed certification
of an employee organization for
too long a period of time. It is
urgent that the election be held
as quickly as possible so that
negotiations may commence,”

CSEA leaders expressed disap-
pointment in the PERB ruling
Southern Region President James
Lennon said, “it’s a shame the
employees have to wait that
much longer for thelr new con-

tract, We're ready to start ne-
gotiating, and now we have to
wait for a whole new election

again.” Mr, Lennon also lament-
ed the expense of the election to
the employees and other tax-
payers.

Orange County unit CSEA ne-
gotiating team chairman Charlie
Dassori also stressed that the
PERB decision only serves to
delay negotiations even longer
than SEIU has already delayed
them.

“The other union is the one
that is responsible for the whole
delay in negotiations,” he said,
“and now we have to wait even
longer because of PERB. The
negotiating committee has been
meeting all summer and we have
our entire list of demands ready
to present to the county. We're
really sorry we have to go
through this ail over again,”

Unit president Carol Dubovick
echoed Mr. Dassori’s words. “The

whole decision was based on a
technicality, really, and for that
reason they threw out the whole
election. This is a tremendous
waste of time for all concerned,”
she said.

Essentially, PERB ruled that
the county had a fair policy to-
wards both CSEA and the other
union during the last election.
But, PERB said, the county did
not disclose its policy equally
clearly to the two unions,

Chapter And Unit Sign
With Lewis Authorities

LOWVILLE—New two-year contracts were signed by
representatives of both the Lewis County chapter and the
Lewis County General Hospital unit, Civil Service Employees

Assn., and county officials.

The two CSEA groups ap
proved the new contracts Sept, 9
and the agreements were form-
ally signed last month.

The agreement includes an
across-the-board increase for
all Lewis County employets plus
increment, if due, for 1975-76.

Further Benefits

Other benefits negotiated by
the two groups include: an in-
crease to 25 days permitted ac-
cumulated vacation time effec-
tive Jan. 1, 1975; an increase to
150 days permitted accumulated
sick leave.

In addition, the hospital unit
negotiated an increase in call-
time pay; the inclusion of the
day following a funeral in fun-
eral leave; pro-rated vacations

tempts to bring the two sides to
the bargaining table, avoiding
going through the negotiators.

In a meeting with 66 of the
#2 CSEA unit members, Mr
Swits explained that he, Eric

tator, and Mr, Markowitz had
reached @ tentative agreement

ment was subsequently rejected

than 20 hours per week.

Contract talks between hos-
pital unit and county officials

tween the chapter and the coun-
ty began a week later. An im-
passe between the county and
CSEA officials was declared July
24; however, negotiations for the
chapter were resumed on Aug, 15
and those for the hospital unit

‘Tremendous Possibilities’ Are Foreseen
In W’chester Officer’s Reinstatement

ALBANY—The Civil Service Employees Assn. won reinstatement for a Westchester
County correction officer in a Supreme Court action and a CSEA attorney said the decision

has “tremendous possibilities.”

Frank R. DeMuro, a correction officer since September 1971, sustained an injury at

the Westchester County Penit-
entiary and went on sick leave
March 5,

On June 14, 8.N. Ejchenholtz,
M.D., examined Mr. DeMuro on
behalf of the county and indl-
cated that the officer was able
to return to his regular duties.
‘The county claimed a certified
letter was sent to Mr. DeMuro
advising him of the doctor's
findings. Mr. DeMuro asserted
that the letter was never deliv-
ered to him.

On June 26, after seeing his
personal physician, Mr. DeMuro
sought to return to work and was
informed that he could not,
since, under Rule 15.4 of the
county civil service rules, he was
deemed to have resigned his po-
sition. Rule 15.4 states “any em-
ployee who absents himself from
duty for three consecutive days
without consent shall be deemed
to have resigned.”

Through its regional attorney,
Arthur H. Gme, the CSEA ar-
gued that the county rule was in
conflict with Section 75 of the
Civil Service Law which provides
that a person shall not be re-
moved except for incompetency
or misconduct after a hearing
upon stated charges.

Justice Timothy J, Sullivan,
agreeing with the union's presen-
tation, found that written notice
of any kind was never received
by Mr, DeMuro as is required by
Section 75 of The Civil Service
Law and directed the county “to
reinstate him in his position as
a correction officer without back
pay.”

“The court's decision,” sald
Mr. Grae, “has tremendous pos-
sibilities. No longer can em-
ployees who are sick be harassed
by threats that they are consid-
ered to be absent from the job
and, therefore, to have resigned,
and no longer can situations oc-
cur where employees who have
taken personal leave are subse-
quently deemed to have resigned
because a credibility gap evolves.”

‘The union's local president.
Ray Cassidy, expressed gratifica-
tion over the CSEA victory and
indicated that he and Mr, Grae
are now considering returning to
the court to pursue further the
question of Mr. DeMuro’s retro-
active pay. Mr, Cassidy said,
“Our members expect strong,
vigorous action on the part of
their union wherever Injustice
prevails. I pledge my unceasing
and unremitting efforts toward
that end.”

Do you choose by good and bad?

Justice Peter Quinn handed
down what may prove to be a
landmark decision concerning the
lack of due process by which the
Fire Alarm Telegraph Dispatch-

were given a new title as Com-

time, a protest was made to
Commissioner O'Hagan who said
he knew nothing of the matter

it, OK'd the move for the Fire

Part-time bus drivers will re-
ceive 10 percent pay hikes each

ment.

Mr, Wagner reported the new

increases at 9 and 14 years of
service; three additional sick
days the first year and two ad-
ditional sick days the second
year, and an improvement in the
bereavement leave provisions, Al-
so, he noted, the retirement plan
for employees was changed from

sentative Robert Young, when
the county failed to meet on the
subject as stipulated in an agree-
ment to do so during a hearing
Sept. 25 on an improper labor
practice charge brought against
the county by CSEA.

At that time, CSA agreed to
withdraw the improper practice
charge when the county agreed
to negotiate the issue which in-
volves reclassifying probation and
corrections officers by two grades
with pay increases of $2,500 and
$1,900 respectively.

CSEA claims that the nature
of the officers’ duties and calibre
of inmate has changed consid-
erably since the Attica upris-
ings, because judges place great-
er emphasis on probation and
more hardened offenders are
now on probation or in the coun-

ty correctional facility. The

lifetime probation, are also cited
by the union as duty-altering
Causes,

In December 1973, County Ex-
ecutive Edward Regan vetoed the
budget items providing for w one-
grade declassification passed by
the Legislature. The improper
labor practice charge was filed
because CSEA claimed the veto
constituted an abrogation of the
Taylor Law process, in that the
county executive could not veto
the salary items provided by the

cess this time could lead to a

into an agreement with JAR.
Productions, Niagara Falls, to
raise funds on a share-basis
through a country and western
show to be staged Deo, 8 in
Watertown and in sales of ad-
vertising in a souvenir booklet.
The chapter provided an office
and three telephones for JAR.
salesmen to carry on advertising
solicitations.

Representatives of J.A.R. took
in an estimated $370 from local
businesses before the legality of
the operation came under ques-
tion, particularly when a subse-
quent check with the Board of
Social Welfare indicated J.A.R.
was not registered in this state
After an article in a local news-
paper relating to the J.AR, pro-
motion appeared, the office used
by the salesmen was closed and
the representatives left the city.

In the meantime, an investiga-
tion was launched by the Water-
town office of the attorney gen-
eral, coordinating its probe with
the Charity Frauds Divisions in
New York City. Gordon H. Mah-
ley Jr., assistant attorney gen-
eral, whose office ts in the state
office building in Watertown,
said “We don’t know whether or

not there will be a show, or
whether or not there will be a
booklet published.”

‘The CSEA, under the promo-
tional plan, sought to raise funds
for college scholarships. The
chapter was to get 25 percent of
the revenue from advertising in
the booklet and 50 percent of
paid admissions for the show,
Richard Grieco, CSEA represen-
tative in the promotion, seid the
J.A.R. personnel have left town
leaving the CSEA with a check-
ing account sum of $52.50 as the
chapter's share, “along with a
$240 telephone bill.” The agree-
ment with J.A.R., he said, called
for the CSEA to provide an office
for one month plus installation
and service of three telephones
at a cost of $150,

As to the prospects of untang-
ling the confused situation, Mr.
Grieco asserted he is awaiting
developments from the inquiry
by the local office of the attor-
ney general. Mr. Grieco indicated
that at the time the agreement
with J.A.R. was written, “there
was no apparent question” of
any wrongdoing since the un-
derstanding then was that the
fund-raising plan had been
cleared through proper state and
local authorities.”

CUIC Slowed By City

BROOKLYN — Last week 22
Brooklyn community leaders met
in the Brooklyn Heights Public
Library to protest the projected
termination of the CUIC (pro-
nounced quick — Citizens’ Urban
Information Centers). The pro-
gram, scheduled to open in the
borough's public libraries in early
1975, will dispense information
on virtually all government and
voluntary services available to
citizens,

CUIC has received a $300,000
grant from a private foundation
and the City received approval
of $3,380,135 from the Federal
Government to fund the pro-
gram. However, the city adminis-
tration, according to a CUIC
spokesman, decided that these
monies should be used for other
purposes and the program ts now
at an impasse.

The leaders — representing a
broad cross-section of the Brook-
lyn community — expressed the
need for the program as a vital
link between people and services,
particularly in this time of eco-
nomic dislocation

Urge Soc. Sec. Coverage
For Fed-Postal Employees

WASHINGTON, D. C.—Con-
gressman John M, Murphy (D-
N.Y.) Inst week, at a meeting
with postal and federal labor
Jeaders, reiterated his support for
legislation which he has spon-
sored to provide social security
coverage—in addition to civil
service retirement—on an op-
tional basis for postal and feder-
al employees.

“I urge federal and postal
workers to write to their Con-
gressmen in Washington and to
Chairman Wilbur Mills of the
House Ways and Means Commit-

tee, to urge passage of H.R. 5531,
my legislation, to provide you
with social security coverage in
addition to civil service retire-
ment on an optional basis," Con-
gressman Murphy said.

“The adoption of this legisia-
tion is highly desirable since it
would enhance the federal gov-
ernment’s role as an employer
without cost to it or to the tax-
payer. This legislation would fi-
nally afford all federal employees
the same protection for their old
age as is now enjoyed by all
other working people."

Federal Employees!

Did you know that in 1974 GHI increased payments
for surgery, anesthesia, in-hospital medical care,
in-hospital consultations, out-of-hospital diagnos-
tic X-rays, and ambulance service?

Now in 1975, the GHI Option is even more valuable.

The Low Option benefits will be discontinued so
that the Blue Cross (hospitalization) portion of all
GHI contracts will be good for 365 days for each

Another Plus:

The 1975 GHI employee cost is the lowest of any
High Option you can choose.

Another Plus:

Payments for Maternity Care will be increased in
a way that will make a real difference to the grow-
ing family. For example:

Another Plus:

At GHI's Vision Services Facilities, subscribers are
entitled to reduced charges on frames and lenses.

Another Plus:

GHI Participating Medical Groups turnish paid-in-
full services, including Maternity Care.

Port Chester CSEA Group
To Protest Proposed Cuts

PORT CHESTER—Ray Cassidy, president of the Westchester County chapter of the
Civil Service Employees Assn., said the group will fight any proposed cuts in the Port Chester

work force.

“The Civil Service Employees Assn. cannot agree to any cuts because we don't think

there is any feather-bedding on
the part of the work force,” he
said.

‘The Board of Trustees of the
village claims that the village's
deficit is now $400,000 with an
anticipated deficit of $600,000 by
the end of the fiscal year, Mar.
31, 1975. The Board proposes
making up the deficit through a
20 percent reduction over the
next 16 months in the number
of employees and a reduction in
the number of work hours,

Pointing out that there have
been irregularities disclosed by a
recent state audit of the Village
of Port Chester, Mr, Cassidy said:

“The Trustees are attempting to
flay the hides of the employees
to compensate for their fiscal ir-

responsibilities which have re-
sulted in an alleged deficit.”

Representatives of the CSEA
met with the village trustees
Noy. 8 and canferred on the de-
veloping budgetary problems of
the village. Stressing that any
reduction in personnel or hours
will inevitably mean a reduction
in services to village residents,
the union told the trustees that
Af a deficit did exist, it was their
responsibility to go back to the
taxpayers in order to provide
funds for a supplementary bud.

ditor. The union further indi-
cated that it intends to have its
own auditors examine the records
of the village. A CSEA spokes-
man said that the trustees may
very wel] have engaged in un-
fair Inbor practices in that a
cursory look at the state audi-
tor’s report reveals that the trus-
tees have consistently overeatim-
ated revenues and have included
in their budget appropriations
from surpluses that were non-
existent. This, the union con-
tends, was not bargaining in good
faith at the time the contract
was negotiated.

Lindenhurst Unit

Wins Increases

LINDENHURST—A recent-
ly negotiated three-year con-
tract between the Linden-
hurst Memorial Library unit
of the Civil Service Employees
Assn. and that library's board of
trustees provides for salary in-
creases of from 12 to 15 percent,
according to unit president Lu-

cille Knapp.
In addition, Ms, Knapp said,
both full and parttime em-

ployees will receive additional
holidays, vacation time and in-
creased insurance benefits. A
provision was made for time and
one-half pay for part-time em-
ployees for emergency call-ins
and certain other positions were
placed in appropriate civil ser-
vice grades.

Ms, Knapp added that ratif
eation of the new pact came
only after an agreement to dis-
cuss the possibility of an agency
shop was put into the contract,
along with other changes such
as compensation for unused sick
leave pay upon employee retire-
ment,

Stop The Delay

ET THERE be no doubt when Orange County employees
vote again to choose the Civil Service Employees Assn.
as their bargaining representative.

Last June, the employees decisively elected CSEA as their
representative, and have been waiting patiently for final
certification of the election so that negotiations can begin
on a new contract. Negotiations were held up during the time
of the challenge by the Service Employees International
Union and since during appeals of the election results,

Now because of technicalities in the election, the State
Public Employment Relations Board has ruled that a new
election should be held as soon as possible.

We heartily agree that further delay would be harmful
to the best interests of the employees who can only be hurt
by drawing out certification of their bargaining agent,

CSEA and the employees both have been the innocent
victims of the technicalities that have occasioned this rerun
of the election. We recommend that the new election be so
overwhelming that SEIU, which has been looking for an
opening to chip away at CSEA’s unity, will be more inclined
to think twice before trying to throw a monkey wrench into
scheduled negotiations again.

SEIU and its sister organization, AFSCME, have both
been making unsuccessful attempts to weaken CSEA during
the past year, One after another, their challenges have been
turned back by the membership. Contrast this with the
challenge CSEA made for representation rights in Orleans
County last September. CSEA was elected by a huge majority,

There's an important distinction to be made by CSEA’s
Orleans victory and the challenges to CSEA in Orange, Ulster,
Erle, Greenburgh, etc.

CSEA sought representation rights in Orleans, knowing
that the sentiment of the people was strongly in their favor.
On the other hand, the challenges to CSEA have been dis-
ruptive, in the hope that the employees’ confidence in CSEA
can be worn down.

One way to stop these disruptive tactics is to turn out
& resounding vote for CSEA when the Orange County elec-
tion is held, presumably in early December.

Ward,” Solzhenitsyn wrote:

“As every man goes through
life, he fills in a number of forms
for the record, each containing
@ number of questions. There are
thus hundreds of dittle threads in
all, If these threads were sud-
denly to become visible, the whole
sky would look like a spider's
web. They are not visible, they
are not material, but every man
is constantly aware of thelr ex-
istence. Each man, permanently
aware of his own invisible
threads, naturally develops a re-
spect for the people who manipu-
Tate the threads.”

Deluged By Forms

Each of us, in one way or an-
other, is regularly beseiged with
the requirement to fill out forms,
We prepare and file tax returns.
We fill out forms to register our
automobile and to renew our
driver's license, Every ten years,
we are obliged to answer a broad
series of questions about our-
selves to the census taker. Those
of us who are in business must
complete a seemingly endless del-
uge of forms to demonstrate our
compliance with unemployment
insurance and workmen's com-
pensation laws, with equal em-
ployment opportunity Jaws and
with all kinds of federal, state,
and local regulations that may
apply specifically to our business
or industry,

In addition, all of us are re-
quired to fill out forms of one
kind or another with a large
variety of interests in the private
sector, These forms typically re-
quire each of us to disclose per-
sonal data and information, Our
entire medical history is in the
hands of companies that sell
medical and hospital insurance.
Our financial history 4s in the
hands of banks, credit card is-
suers and commercial credit
checking agencies.

With respect to all the forms
we fill in, our social security
number becomes the universal
identifier. And if all the personal
data about us were accumulated
in ong vast network of computer
data processing, then the most
intimate details of our lives
could be retrieved within seconds
from the computerized f{iles, This
is not just a bleak, futuristic
nightmare. The Federal General
Services Administration has
Plans to establish what it calls
FEDNET, a Federal network of
data processing, which would in-
clude all material about us col-
lected through tax returns, cen-
sus reports, PBI records, Veter-
ans Administration files, and all
other governmental files, Portu-
nately for all of us, these plans
for PEDNET were brought to a
halt by President Ford.

Privacy Threatened

What ts threatening about this
4s that this accumulation of data
and its potential for instant re-
trieval may destroy everyone's
ideal of privacy, an ideal de-
seribed by Justice Brandeis as
the “most comprehensive of
rights and the right most valued
by civilised men.”

Congress will shortly act on
pending legislation designed to
protect the individual's right to
privacy, These bills are spon-
sored principally in the Senate
by Senator Gam J, Ervin, Jr.,
and in the House by Manhattan
Representative Edward I, Koch.
The proposed legislation would
require the public Msting of every
data processing operation main-
tained by the federal government.

moved for a dismissal of the petition. Petitioner had held the
rank of Deputy Inspector for approximately three years at
the time this proceeding was commenced. The petitioner al-
leged that he was advised to file for retirement or else be
reduced to the rank of Captain. When he asked for a reason,
petitioner was allegedly told, “That the Police Commissioner
believes you have been in the personnel bureau too long and
wants your vacancy.” Petitioner further alleged, “that were
it not for his age and the 33 years of service to the citizens
of the City and State of New York, the respondent would not
discriminate against him and want his vacancy for younger
persons.”

‘THE THRUST of petitioner's claim is that this consti-
tutes discrimination based upon age and is an illegal exercise
of administrative judgment by the Police Commissioner. The
Commissioner, on the other hand, argued that the petitioner
was merely “detailed” to his position of deputy inspector and
that such position could be revoked at any time. In fact, the
Commissioner argued, the designation of petitioner to act
as Deputy Inspector of Police was revoked, The Court pointed
out that tenure and other Civil Service rights are not present
in assignments such as the one from which petitioner was
removed. The Commissioner has broad discretion with re-
gard to detailing and revoking such positions. The question
is whether the Commissioner's discretion is subject to review
where it is exercised for unlawful reasons. The judge at
Special Term said that until the contrary is shown it must
be presumed that public officers vested with discretionary
power, exercise such power consistent with their fiduciary
duty to their government unit and the people in general.
The legislature made a grant, within constitutional limits,
and thereby indicated its willingness to accept the risk of
arbitrary action in order to seek the accomplishment of the
objectives of the grant,

JOB DISCRIMINATION based upon age is against the
public policy of the state. The State Human Rights Commis-
sion may be involved, but its orders cannot be enforced ex-
cept by a proceeding brought in and determined by the
Appellate Division. Orders of the State Division of Human
Rights are not self-enforcing. The petitioner was merely
told that his detail was being revoked because he was on
the job too long. So long as the contested action does not
conflict with the employee's constitutional or statutory
rights, the superior's discretion may not be said to be arbi-
trary, Under the express language of the City Code, the detail
to Deputy Inspector did not constitute a promotion. “As a
clear corollary,” the court said, “from the very character of
the position, incumbents may be removed at will.” The cross
motien to dismiss was granted and the petition dismissed,
This was not intended to preclude such applications as the
petitioner might make before the State Division of Human
Rights. Foran v. Cawley, 354 NYS 2d 757 (Spec. Term, Part I,
N. ¥. County, 10-17-73).

They would give to each indi-
vidual the right to inspect his
own files and to eliminate from
the files all data which Is inac-
curate. The bills would also tm-
pose meaningful restrictions upon
access to any such files to protect
the security of all information,
Congress should act favorably
on these proposals to insure the
privacy of our people, The dan-
ger, as seen by Federal Judge
Gerhard Gesell, la that “system-
atic recordation and dissemina-
tion of information about indi-
vidual citizens ts a form of sur-
velllance and control which may
easily inhibit freedom to speak,
move about and work in this
Jand.” Congress has the opportu~
nity to put an end to this threat.

Sen, Donald R. Ackerson
and Rep. Eugene Levy promised
to demand copies of an insurance
company report on conditions at
the plant. Insurance company in-
spectors toured the plant approx-
imately six months ago, and
Larry Keary, CSEA president at
the plant, sald he has never seen
the findings. The legislators said
they would forward copies of the
report to CSEA.

Senator Ackerson and Repre-
sentative Levy were invited to
tour the plant Oct, 29 by CSEA
leaders who had become impa-
tient over continuing violations
of safety regulations.

Rockland County chapter presi-

then did the legislators and

Mr. Keary pointed out several
open gratings in the buildings
and treatment compartments at
the plant. One of them, at the
main pump building, has a drop

said later, was a malfunctioning

regnant Teachers Rights

Affirmed By Appeals Court

The state's highest court
recently affirmed the State
Division of Human Rights’
Orders in support of the
complaints of three pregnant
school teachers.

The victory followed public
hearings on the complaints of
Cyla Allison against the Board
of Education of Union Free
School District No. 22 in the
Counties of Nassau and Suf-
folk, L. 1; Deborah Plot-Pierce
against the NYC Board of Edu-
cation; and Susan Arluck against
the Board of Education of Union
Pree School District No. 2 in the
County of Nassau.

The Boards of Education had
challenged the three pregnant
school teachers—and the State
Division of Human Rights—on
their assertion that employers
must treat pregnancy in the
same manner as other types of
“temporary physical disabilities.”
‘This assertion was a precedent-
making principle established by
the Division.

The Court of Appeals, which
heard arguments on the appeal
of the Orders of the Human
Rights Commissioner, affirmed
the Orders. Under the Court’s de-
cisions, pregnant employees must
be allowed to continue working
a5 long as they are certified by
their physiclans to be physically
capable of performing their du-
ties and to return to work as
soon as it is certified that they
are physically able to resume
their duties.

‘The pregnant teachers must
also receive the same sick bene-

fits and health insurance cover-
age for the period of disability as
other employees receive for other
types of temporary ge dis
abilities,

The following Special Election Proce-
dures Committee report at the annual
Delegates Meeting was presented by
Genevieve Clark. Other committee mem-
bers are Bernard C. Schmahl, chairman,
and committee members William Me-
Convell, Ray Pritchard, Elton Smalley
and Anthony Giannetti.

Among the duties of this Committee,
one is a continuing funetion, thnt ts,
the review of protests filed concerning
the procedures used in nominations and
elections of Chapter Officers.

The Committee is composed of a
Chairman, and one representative from
each of the six (6) Regions of the
CSEA structure. At the March 1974
meeting of the Delegates, the Commit-
tee met two separate times to discuss
the procedure to be used in handling
protests. Since the March meeting, we
have had approximately 25 protests, of
these, four (4) needed special attention
of the different Region representatives.
One in Region 1 was settled by having a
new election, under the supervision of
the Committee representative. A pro-
test in Region 6 was investigated and
after all facts were reviewed, a decision
was reached that there had been no
violation of the Chapter Constitution &
By-Laws. However, a recount of the
ballots was ordered. This recount was
supervised by the Region 6 represen-
tative

A protest filed in Region 5 was in-
vestigated by our Region 5 representa-
tive, and this investigation showed that
no violations of the Constitution &
By-Laws had occurred, therefore the
Protest was disallowed and the person
filing the protest was so advised. In Re-
gion 4, a protest was filed concerning
the conduct of a Chapter election, after
@ review of the facts presented, and
after a consultation with the legal staff,
we upheld the protest and ordered a
new election be held. This election was
supervised by the Region 4 Committee
representative. The rest of the pro-
tests were of a nature that they did
not require special! attention and were

GENEVIEVE CLARK

disallowed due to no evidence of wrong-
doing by the Chapter.

In addition, our Committee has con-
ducted two elections at the request of
the Chapters involved. Ordinarily we
do not do this but in extreme cases
where a Chapter has & problem con-
ducting an election, we will conduct the
election if the facts are sufficient to
warrant this action,

I, a8 Chairman, have met several
times with staff at headquarters, in-
cluding the legal staff, to discuss the
part that the headquarters will play in
the upcoming election of Officers of
the CSEA. This discussion covered
membership lists of all Chapters and Re-
gions and other pertinent information
needed from our membership files.

A meeting of the Committee will be
called after the October meeting of the
Delegates to formulate the contract to
be sent to the outside agencies for bids
on the conduct of the election. These
rules will be in accordance to the final
action on election procedure approved
by the Delegates.

The Committee wishes to thank the
Jegal staff, and other headquarter per-
sonnel and also the field men for the
assistance given our Committee in the
investigation of protests.

School Employees Report

The following report at the annual
Delegates Meeting was prepared by the
Non-teaching School Employees Com-
mittee: Edward Perott, chairman, and
committee members Jacob Banek,
Charles Lach, Patrick O'Connor, Howard
Cropsey, Salvatore Mogavero, Les Banks,
Hugh Crapser, Irene Izv, David Stlber-
man and Neil Gruppo.

Since our last report at the Special
Delegates Meeting on March 25-26, 1974,
at the Concord Hotel, Kiamesha Lake,
Statewide Non-Teaching School

ing scene in the negotiating process for
employees of school districts

Within this framework, the members
of the committee are studying the pos-
sibility of an experimental program of
regional negotiations for non-teaching
employees in the near future, Also, the
committee ts studying the effects of the
recent amendments to the Taylor Law
that are causing and will continue to
cause the negotiating process for non-

teaching employees to change from
the original procedures set forth in
the law.

The major change affecting non-

teaching employees, of course, is in the
final step of the impasse procedure. The
legistative hearing which was estab-
Mshed as the final step no longer exists
and has been replaced by a new pro-
cedure involving the New York State
Public Employment Remtions Board.
‘This procedure will be the subject of
& program which will be presented to
non-teaching delegates at the upcom-
ing 64th Annual Meeting, Understand-

ing these procedures now and for fu-
ture negotiations should be a great
help to all concerned.

Furthermore, the committee is pre-
sently reviewing the report it issued early
last spring on cafeterias for the purpose
of updating it where necessary. Other
reports on transportation and custodial
services are now being contemplated.
It is the committee's hope that it will
be able to address itself to these areas
of concern within a short time.

Finally, the committee {s continuing
to work internally within the statewide
aniaation to foster the beliefs and
eeds of non-teaching employees. In
this respect, the members of the com-
mittee have been attempting to gain
the approval of the statewide organi-
zation for the creation and subsequent
filling of a new position which shall
have the title of non-teaching coordina-
tor, The primary function and respon-
sibility of this position, of course, would
be to develop and implement programs
for non-teaching employees which would
seek to handle their needs, The commit-
tee believes that the position should be
created now because the needs of such
employees are growing, and CSEA must
be ready and willing to handle these
needs if it expects to attract more and
more non-teaching employees.
ne committee's concern is to develop
& strong image of leadership for CSEA
@t this vital local government area. The
committee ts of the opinion that it
must be guided by this statement and
work as effectively us possible to pro-
duce the desired result, We trust you
will agree.
