PROVIDE AID — Mary Kingsicy, president of CSEA's Albion
Correctional Facility chapter, was the first person to respond to an
appeal by Jack Weisz for contributions to ald a fellow member who
had lost her position because of sex discrimination.
Adirondack Cook Wins
Sex Discrimination Suit
DANNEMORA—A more than two-year battle by Thelma
Upton and the Civil Service Employees Assn. against the
State has ended in a major victory for Ms. Upton and her
union with the State Human Rights Commission ruling
that the State Department of
Correctional Services had dis-
criminated against Ms, Upton on
the basis of her sex.
‘The State Human Rights Com-
mission chairman, Jack M. Sable,
recently ruled that Ms. Upton
should be reinstated to her for-
mer position as a cook at the
Adirondack Correctional Facility
with full back pay for two years,
medical expenses, lost benefits
and payment of $1,500 by the
State for mental anguish and hu-
miliation she suffered as a result
of being Jald off in September
1972, after 18 years as a cook
at the correctiona) facility. The
Human Rights Commission ruled
that Ms. Upton and CSEA were
correct in charging that she was
laid off as the result of a discrim-
imatory ruling that her position
should go to a male.
‘Most Blatant Case’
“The Thelma Upton case was
perhaps the most blatant case
of discrimination that I have
ever encountered,” said Jack
Welsz, CSEA representative to
the Board of Directors from the

Lennon Demanding Probe
Of Matteawan Transfers
FISHKILL—The Southern Region 3 of the Civil Service Employees Assn. demanded
an immediate investigation by the state Attorney General of the transfer of Matteawan pris-
oners to loosely guarded mental hospitals throughout the region.
president James J, Lennon, in a letter to Attorney General
CSEA Southern Region
Louls Lefkowitz, also advised
that the union is looking into
possible legal action to prevent
future transfers of prisoners to
the mental hospitals.
“We have seven mental hos-
pitals with thousands of em-
ployees in this region,” Mr. Len-
non said. “We are concerned not
only with the safety of our
union's members, but also with
that of the patients in the hos-
pitals and the community sur-
rounding the hospitals.
“The murder of Matteawan
Psychologist Judith Becker was
@ direct result of this abomin-
able transfer policy which allows
murderers and rapists to leave
maximum-security Matteawan to
go to mental hospitals where ad
ministrations are not prepared
for them, staff is not being re-
trained to handle them, and
there are virtually no security
precautions.”
The suspect in the recent
Becker murder ts an ex-Mattea-
wan inmate who was allowed to
transfer to a mental hospital last
year under a new law that man-
dated such transfers for Mat-
teawan inmates who have not yet
been convicted.
‘Disastrous Transfers’
“The sickening disregard for
the safety of the employees, pa-
tients and neighbors of the
state's mental hospitals must end
now,” Mr. Lennon demanded
“CSEA has an overwhelming
amount of documentation show:
ing that these transfers have
and Labor Relations has
been disastrous.”
He pointed out that the Mid-
Hudson Psychiatric Center in
New Hampton, set up exclusively
to receive transferred inmates
from Matteawan, has had 24 es-
capes in the past year. Six of
the escapees are still at large.
“Who knows how many un-
solved murders in this region are
directly related to this law?" Mr,
Lennon asked. He specifically
mentioned the murder of @ 15-
yearold high-school girl in the
parking area of a Nanuet shop-
ping mall,

“The Department of Mental
Hygiene itself opposed these

ed it didn't have enough funds

Laundry Worker
Benefits Sought
(From Leader Correspondent)
NEWBURGH—Southern Region 3 of the Civil Service
Employees Assn. will do all in its power to help public em-
ployee laundry workers to get an upgrading on their jobs,
regional president James J. Lennon said at a Region execu-
tive board meeting here Oct, 17
The low salary grades of laun-
dry workers and the hard, some-
times dangerous jobs they per-
form, were described in a letter
from M.E. Gamble, a laundry em-
ployee at Harlem Valley State
Hospital, to William Reilly of the
division of classification of the
Mental Hygiene Department.
Mr. Gamble said there is a
constant possibility of a worker
being scalded or otherwise in-
jured by the laundry processing
equipment. Injuries may also be

standing, from left: Gloria Abel, instructor; Celeste Rosenkrans, CSEA education chairman, and Jean-
ette Watkins, coordinator of the labor studies programa,
caused by the wet, slippery floors
on which the workers walk.
There is the danger of infection
from the bedding and clothing
and injuries from sharp objects
often found in the clothing.
“Thirty years ago the position
of a launderer was considered a
position for an attendant, It is
inconceivable that over these
years, with the increased demand
for production of finished work
and the introduction of much
more complex processing proced-
ures and equipment, thai the
value of the laundry employees
would have so deteriorated.

At the scent of the fire on
23rd Street some years ago in
which 12 firefighters died,
Commissioner O'Hagan, in an
interview, said that when a
firefighter ts killed, each of
us dies a little that day.
Nothing could be more true.
‘Thus it was that on Tuesday
evening, Oct. 29, we all did, in-
deed, die a little within our-
selves.

pm. « building In the railroad
yards at Willis and Bruckner in
the Bronx turned into an inferno

a warehouse 50 by 400 feet,
Long after the “under control”

perately weary firemen were

ing up tools and ladders, Fire-
man Russell Linnebal] and Pire-

toward a standing position, it
hit the electric wire above, One
instant before, Fireman Victor
Secrete, who was on the loading
platform, had let go in order to
grab the halyard for lowering.
The instant the contact was
made, eleven thousand volts hit
the two firefighters and they
lay dead upon the ground.
On the radio in the early
stages of the fire, I heard the
chief request that the power be
shut off in the entire freight
yard. A question comes to mind
as to why the power would have
been restored without the per-
mission of the Fire Department.
Maybe the permission had been
given. Operations were all but
finished. It was four hours after
the fire began, Only “taking up”
operations were going on. The
wire was simply not visible, It
was an accident which any fire-
fighter would quickly attribute
to being “part of the job."
Most of all it was the second

Gov. Wilson:
Productivity
Saved Nearly $1 Million
ALBANY—Gov. Malcolm Wilson has announced that
almost $1 million in savings and increased revenues already
have resulted from productivity and improvements to in-
crease the effectiveness of state operations.
Governor Wilson February 25
last directed the heads of all
state agencies to intensify efforts
to develop and implement specif-
fe productivity improvements.
A report by state budget direc-
tor Richard L, Dunham noted the
following productivity savings;
EFFICIENT USE OF AUTO-
MATED EQUIPMENT
In recent months, several state
agencies have automated routine
functions and effected economies
in existing automated systems for
‘total annual savings of approxi-
mately $400,000, These results
have been achieved through the
following measures:
© The establishment of a high-
ly automated typing center in
the Department of Motor Ve-
hicles has speeded production
and produced an estimated sav-
ings of $85,000 a year.
© The integration of snowmo-
bile and motorboat licensing in
the Department of Motor Vehi-
cles’ automated licensing and
registration operation has saved
$130,000,
© The Department of Motor
Vehicles has recently completed
automation of its procedures for
revocation and suspension of dri-
ver's licenses following court
convictions, This move will get
unsafe drivers off the road more
quickly, and save approximately
$80,000 annually...
© The Department of State
will save $42,000 annually by
using computerized typesetting
equipment for updating the
State's Official Compilation of
Codes, Rules and Regulations.
© The Education Department
has converted a number of com-
puter programs previously run on
equipment outside the agency so
that they can be used on the
Department's computer for an
annual savings of $45,000,
© The Division of the Budget
has negotiated a statewide con-
tract which will save $13,000 an-
nually in rental and maintenance
of all of the State’s electronic
accounting machines,
INCREASED FEDERAL RE-
IMBURSEMENT
Aggressive pursuit of federal
reimbursement for state pro-
grams resulting from manage-
ment improvements will yield an
additional $374,000 annually in
increased revenue, thereby free-
ing State tax dollars. Specific
achievements in this area include
the following:
© The Department of Agricul-
ture and Markets has recently
negotiated contracts with the
U. 8, Food and Drug Administra-
tion to perform Federal inspec-
tions of food processing plants.

This action will eliminate dupli-
cation of inspections between the
FDA and the department, and
will generate $174,000 annually
in additional revenue to the state
over a three-year period.
© The Division for Youth is
currently implementing a cen-
tralized equipment inventory sys-
tem which will facilitate central
processing of equipment pur-
chases and transfers and surplus
property disposition. Besides ‘re-
turning savings through im-
proved equipment usage, the re-
assessment of the Division's in-
yentory will support claims for
increased federal reimbursement
of approximately $200,000 annu-
ally.
CONSOLIDATION OF
FUNCTIONS
More efficient use of state
personnel has been achieved
through consolidation of related
functions in two agencies. An-
nual savings of $175,000 are an-
ticipated from the following
moves:
© The Division for Youth has
consolidated certain business of-
fice functions and staff of the
former State training schools
with its central office responsi-
bilities for a savings of approxi-
mately $110,000 annually in per-
sonnel costs.
© The Department of Correc-
tional Services has assumed re-
sponsibility for preparing signs
for State University campuses at
an annual savings to the State
of approximately $65,000.
INCREASED STATE REVENUE
© The Lottery Division of the
State Racing and Wagering
Board inaugurated a new ticket
design and introduced daily lot-
tery prizes for a one-month pe-
riod, boosting gross sales by
nearly 10 percent over the pre-
vious month and increasing State
revenue for education by almost
$300,000.

EXKKAAAAKANAANAAKANSAARAAN AANA III
Green Haven Officials
Lambasted By Senisi
vil Service Employees Assn. Green Haven president Angelo Senisi
sharply criticized the industrial administration at the prison for being “unqualified and
incompetent” and for showing favoritism in promotions,
“The assistant superintendent of industries here has worked one year, in which he
went from foreman to general
foreman to assistant superinten-
dent without ever taking any
Civil Service test for any of
those jobs,” Senis! charged. “He
jumped right over qualified per-
manent employees. This is @
blatant circumvention of the
law.”
Mr. Senisi is also annoyed at
the imminent transfer of a gen-
eral foreman and two foremen
from the Green Haven industrial
shops.to Clinton Correctional Pa-
cility in upstate New York. Allen
Mills, director of industries for
the Department of Correctional
Services in Albany, ordered the
transfers.
A general foreman himself, Mr.
Senisi said, “I absolutely refuse
to have any permanent employee
transferred as long as there are
temporary and provisional em-
ployees at Green Haven, They
should be the first to go, not us.
“There are two temporary
foremen at Green Haven, includ-
ing one garment shop foreman
who actually works out of Al-
bany, who could easily be trans-
ferred with the garment shop,
leaving the permanent employees
at Green Haven," he continued,
The garment shop will be the
first of Green Haven's shops to
relocate at Clinton.
“‘Parenthetics’
The industrial superintendent
and his assistant at Green Haven
maintain that men must be
transferred who have knowledge
or experience in the specific field
of garment work, since they will
be transferred with the garment
shop. Senisi claims following
“parenthetics,” or specialty areas
of the employees, is done selec-
tively and not applied fairly
throughout the prison.
“They've assigned a foreman
to the new hospital equipment
repair shop at Green Haven. He
had been a paintbrush shop

Mr, Gamble asked that the po-
sition of a chief laundry super-
visor be upgraded from G-14 to
G-18; head laundry supervisor
from G-12 to G-15; laundry sup-
ervisor from G-10 to G-13; senior
launderer from G-7 to G-9; laun:
derer from G-4 to G-7; laundry
cleaner from G-4 to G-6 and
laundry clerk from G-3 to G-5.
The last upgrading for launder-
ers was in 1968, Mr, Gamble said
President Lennon said he
hoped this upgrading could be
obtained and that it would apply
to all public employees who are
laundry workers.
A major topic at the Southern
Region meeting was the political
action committee endorsements
of candidates for Stats Senate
and Assembly.
The endorsements were an-
nounced by William Lawrence,
chairman of the Region 3 politi
cal action committee. Mr. Law-
rence pointed out that party af-
filiations were not considered for
the endorsements. The endorse-
ments were given strictly on the
basis of past performance by in-
cumbents on 10 public-employee
bills, acted on in the last session
of the State Legislature, Those
who are not incumbents were
Judged on their attitudes towards
the bills, Mr, Lawrence said,
President Lennon said he
hoped that members who do not
agree with the endorsements
“would not embarrass CSEA by
calling chapter or unit meetings
to make new endorsements.
“I realize some people may not
be happy with some of the en-
dorsements, If they want to vote
or work for other candidates
they are perfectly free to do so,
but I hope they don’t do it in
the name of CSEA, We have a
state and regional political ac-
tion committee and I think we
should respect their endorse-
ments," Mr, Lennon said,

CSEA state executive commit-

thanked the delegates to the re-
cent state convention for the
ideas they presented. “CSEA

Mr, Pesci said.
President Lennon suggested
that the Region look into the
possibility of getting a satellite
office in Westchester County.
The CSEA Central Region al-
ready has two such offices, he
pointed out, “It’s an absolute
necessity to have @ satellite of-
fice in Westchester, the most
heavily populated county in the
Southern Region,” Mr, Lennon
said.
‘The regional president also
suggested that the executive
board look into the possibility of
having a dinner-dance. The next
executive board meeting will be
held in late November at the
Bear Mountain Inn.
foreman previously, And before
that, I believe, he was a shoe
shop foreman. Now, where's the
‘parenthetics' there?” Senisi
asked. “How does paintbrush ex-
perience qualify you for hospital
equipment repair?”
“For that matter, what quall-
fies the superintendent and as-
sistant superintendent of indus-
tries? What do they know about
garments or paint brushes?
Nothing.”
‘Cites Security Lack
‘The recent escape of two Green
Haven inmates, as yet uncap-
tured, reflects the general lack
of security at Green Haven, Sen-
isi charged, especially in the in-
dustrial-shop area.
“Somebody could be killed back
in the shops, and nobody would
know {t till it was too late,” he
sald, "This I blame on the admin-
istration. The industrial super-
intendent and assistant superin-
tendent are not security-minded
at all, In fact, they don't know
anything about security or in-
dustry. In one year, these two
have destroyed what it took the
previous superintendent 12 years
to build.”
“If the administration keeps
going the way it has been, there's
going to be trouble here,” he
warned,
Mr, Senisi also mentioned that
the Correctional Department still
has not responded to the union
about funding retraining pro-
grams at Green Haven. The in-
formation was promised at a
meeting Oct, 15,

such a terrible cost,” Mr. Weisz
said after the decision.
Mr. Weisz said the State was
successful in delaying action on
Ms. Upton’s complaint since Sep-
‘tember, 1972. “As a result of the
State-caused delays,” Mr. Weisz
said, “Thelma Upton was stripped
of all her accumulated assets and
suffered tremendous humiliation
and mental anguish. The loss of
pay resulted directly in a home
mortgage default and a pending
proceeding for foreclosure. Her
automobile was repossessed and
& judgment issued for the bal-
ance of payments, Her oil deliv-
ery was discontinued last July,

BUFFALO—New York State
Tax Department employees of
the Buffalo District Office will

testimontal on his recent pro-
motion to director of income tax

Mr. Cahill joined the Buffalo
district office in 1949. During the
intervening years at the Buffalo

tions of the truck mileage tax
section, Motor Vehicle Depart-
ment, Sales Tux Bureau, and
most recently served as an assist-
ant district tax supervisor.

Mr. Weisz added that both he
and Ms. Upton were extremely
grateful to the many people who
aided her in her long fight
against the State, especially
Mary Kingsley, CSEA chapter
president at the Albion Correc-
tional Facility, and Wendell
Lashua, former chapter president
at the Adirondack Correctional
Facility, both of whom testified
on her behalf during hearings

“In cases where we endorsed

candidates, the Republicans one
night and the Democrats the

of Labor standards, for public

tion? (“A mere & or 6 percent
wage increase won't allow public
employees or retirees to stay
even,” Grossfield said. “We must
have the costof-living escalator
plus a general wage increase and
we must have them before next
April 1. Inflation is Mable to hit
15 or 16 percent by then.” He
also urged that cost-of-living sup-

City Residency
NCE again New York City Council has taken up the Issue
of residency requirements as a condition of employment
by the city.
This is one of those issues that periodically pop up, are
vigorously opposed by various employee unions and then sent
back to limbo. In addition, there are state regulations that
permit certain uniformed employees to live outside the city
mits in counties that share borders with the city or are
contiguous with the suburban counties. (Thus, someone in
Suffolk can be employed by the city, while someone who lives
closer by in Orange County theoretically is barred. We know,
however, that the law is stretched.)
There is an irony, though, in the fact that New York
City is singled out for these restrictions on its ability to hire
from among its own citizenry. For example, someone living
in suburban Westchester County's City of White Plains must
be considered for employment by New York City, whereas
White Plains can exclude New York City residents from simi-
Jar jobs.
Of the two proposals considered by City Council last
week, we lean toward the idea of bonus points for residents
as opposed to the requirement for three-year residency.
The bonus points solution seems to be a futile gesture,
though, since the state constitution allows preferential treat-
ment for veterans only. Other than that, eligibility is based
on “Merit and Fitness,” bywords of the Civil Service system.
The three-year residency requirement, on the other hand,
would be harmful to young people who would have to leave
home as teen-agers in order to meet the residency require-
ments.
Further meetings will be held by Council to discuss the
problem. With the loss of jobs within New York City there
will be unusual pressure for the Council members to come
up with something to keep New York jobs in New York.
There are two overlooked factors at work in the overall
picture, though.
One 1s a social situation, in that those people who could
be most affected by the increase in job openings are residents
of the City's Inner areas dr Ghettos.
Second is the geographical predicament faced by many
large cities that are bounded on all sides by artificial
boundaries set up before urban sprawl.
Before the residency problem can be resolved, it must
be determined whether the Merit System should be weakened
in order to provide better Job opportunities for residents. As
matters now stand, Inner City residents currently have the
Opportunity to score high on the exams and beat out non-
residents, if they are able.
On the other hand, should non-residents be permitted
the opportunity to earn their livings in the City, and then
invest that income in another community? With the artifi-
cial boundaries and housing shortage it is difficult to expect
people to live in a city where fixed expenses are among the
highest in the nation,
There are two great forces troubling America today—
social change and economic unceftainty. The residency re-
quirement is only one small incident in the continuing strug-
gle between these forces,
If City Council can solve the problem, the members will
all deserve to be elected to Congress, because the same
problems in other forms exist there. For now, though, we
give them an “A” for effort.
Labels Less Significant
A number of things point to
the trend in which we are mov-
ing. More and more political
labels become less and less sig-
nificant. The independents now
control the ballot. If there is any
doubt on that score, then let
us be reminded of the fact that
only one candidate endorsed by
the Democratic State Committee
Jast June—the incumbent comp-
troller Arthur Levitt — survived
the Democratic primary in Sep-
tember.
Another factor that will signifi-
cantly change politics In the
months and years ahead Is the
trend toward public financing of
election campaigns and the more
stringent rules regarding con-
tributions to campaign activities.
This means that high-powered
pressure groups representing es-
tablishment interests will no
longer be in a position to dictate
executive or legislative decisions
because of thelr campaign con-
tributions.
At the Federal level and in
many states, including New
York, there has been enaction
of Freedom of Information Laws.
Commonly known as “Sunshine
Laws,” These laws are designed
to give the public access to all
documents and records which
produced government action.
‘These laws will make it impos-
sible for government to act in
secrecy or behind closed doors.
In Congress and in the State
Legislature, recent years have
witnessed a growing trend to-
wards opening up thelr proce-
dures to greater public scrutiny
and appraisal. The era when
legislative committees met be-
hind closed doors in executive
session is giving way to public

Sick Leave Bank Contested
In June 1973, Appellate Division, Fourth Department,
was faced with a question of whether a board of education
of a school district could agree to the establishment of a
“sick leave bank” in collective bargaining negotiations with
the teachers’ union.
It was agreed in the negotiations in 1968 and 1969 that
for the two-year period beginning September 1, 1969, each
teacher:
“shall be permitted to contribute up to three (3)
days from his sick leave accumulation reserve each
school year to a sick leave bank, which shall be es-
tablished to aid teachers who suffer prolonged ill-
ness and whose sick leave accumulation has been
exhausted. The Board shall match each such con-
tribution up to a maximum total reserve of 3,000
days. The line item in the 1969 budget shall be
$10,000."
The contract further provided that in case of a prolonged
illness, a teacher with three years or less of seryice who
would otherwise be qualified, could draw up to 40 days of
credit from such accumulated days in the sick leave bank,
and that a tenured teacher could draw up to 90 days’ credit
from the sick leave bank.
+ . .
AFTER THE EFFECTIVE date of the contract, the State
Comptroller ruled that the provision for transfer or assign-
ment of sick leave credits of one public employee to another
was unlawful, and that payment by the Board of Education
under this agreement with the teachers’ union would not be
approved. The Board of Education notified the union of
this opinion, and the teachers’ union thereupon commenced
this lawsuit in which there was no dispute as to the facts.
Plaintiff moved for summary judgment in its favor, and
the State Comptroller, who was a third party defendant,
cross-moved for summary judgment in his favor. Special
term agreed with the Comptroller that there was no auth-
orization for the transfer or assignment of sick leave
credits from one employee to another, and that sick leave
was by its very nature personal and unassignable.
The Appellate Division reversed the lower court and
held that the provision in the contract for a sick leave bank
was lawful, and that a judgment should be entered declaring
such provision to be valid. In making its decision, the court
pointed out that the Taylor Law requires negotiations as
to terms and conditions of employment between the public
employer and its employees and to enter into written agree-
ments with the employee organization in determining such
terms and conditions of employment. Therefore, once it is
determined that the question of sick leave is a term and con-
dition of employment, the employer is required to negotiate
with regard to it. The court further pointed out that an
understanding would have to be incorporated into a collec-
tive agreement unless some statutory provision circumscribes
its power to do so,
. . .
IN THE OPINION, the court discusssed the now land-
mark Huntington case, in which the Court of Appeals stated
that a public employer is presumed to possess the broad
powers needed to negotiate with employees as to terms and
conditions of employment. This presumption may be rebutted
(Continued from Page 6)
employment limited by plain
and clear, rather than express,
prohibitions in the statute or
decisional law." To this extent,
the Court of Appeals has mod!-
fied ts position in the Hunting-
ton case, and in theory, at least,
it will now be easier for a public
employer to show that it is with-
out power to contract or nego-
tate as to a particular item.

‘Those statistics simply point
up the fact that the job of a
firefighter is the most dangerous,
dehumanizing, demeaning as well
as the most unappreciated Job a
man can take. In spite of that,
men are proud to come into the
job, love it when they become
members of it, and give every
ounce of their life's blood to
maintain their right to remain
in it.
As an example, let's look at
Russell Linneball.
‘Those who observed him felt
that he would some day be a
medal man and certainly an of-
ficer, He was within one semester
of completing college. The proud-
est day of his life was the day
he received his LAPP. sticker
and went out to paste it on his
windshield.
Prom the day he was old
enough to know the meaning of
the color red, he wanted to be
a fireman and was sick at heart
when he heard that the job
freeze would prevent him from
becoming a bdlueshirt. When the
company returned from & work-
er, he would conduct a little per-
sonal seminar, talking to the
other members, asking if there
was anything he could have done

CIVIL SERVICE LEADER, Tuesday, November 5, 1974
Special Civil Service (Affirmative Action) Committee Report Con’t.
(Continued from Last Week)
The message conveyed by these legal
rulings is clear: if a statistical survey
shows that minorities and females are
not participating in your work force at
all levels in reasonable relation to their
Presence {n the population and the Inbor
force, the burden of proof is on you to
show that this is not the result of dis-
crimination, however inadvertent. There
is a strong probability that some part
of your system is discriminating, and
unless you make changes you may be
subject to legal action.
The changes required were summar-
ized by the Supreme Court:
“What ts required . . . is the removal
of artificial, arbitrary and unecessary
barriers to employment when the bar-
riers opemte invidiously to discriminate
on the basis of racial or other imper-
missible classification."
‘The “artificial, arbitrary and unneces-
sary barriers” identified by the Supreme
Court and by many other Federal
Courts, include practices and policies of
recruitment, selection, placement, test-
ing, systems of transfer, promotion, sen-
fority, lines of progression, and many
other basic terms and condiditions of
employment,
Removing these barriers requires posi-
tive, affirmative action to develop new
Policies and practices that provide all
persons opportunity for employment on
an equal basis.
Court-Ordered Remedies:
Back Pay and Affirmative Action.
Where the courts have found discrim!-
nation, they have ruled that remedies
must not only open the doors to equal
employment for all, but also must
“make whole” and “restore the right-
ful economic status of all those in an
“affected class”; 1.¢., those who have
suffered and continue to suffer effects
of past discrimination. In practice, this
has resulted In extremely expensive as-
sessments for back pay and legal costs,
Under Title VII, back pay may be
awarded to an entire “affected class’
extending up to two years prior to the
date a discrimination charge ts filed.
‘The lengthy processes of Investigation,
attempted conciliation and legal action
often add years to this period, at great
additional cost to the employer.
Remedial affirmative action programs
ordered by the courts have varied in
nature and scope, depending on the
type of discrimination found,
Courts have required fundamental
changes in all aspects of employment
systems and they have specified num-
bers or percentages of minorities and
females to be hired, trained, or pro-
moted in specific job categories, until
certain goals are reached, They usually
require an employer to undertake such
action quickly, with followup monitor-
ing by the court,
Here are some recent examples of the
kinds of practices ruled discriminatory
by the courts, costs to the employers,
and nature of affirmative action ord-
ered:
© Anaconda Aluminum Company was
ordered to pay $190,000 in back wages
and court costs to 276 women who
alleged that the company maintained
sex-segregated job classificaitons. Jobs
formerly classified “Female” and “Male”
had been reclassified as “light” and
“heavy,” but women still were pre-
vented from transferring to “heavy”
jobs, and after layoffs, the company
hired new male employees into “heavy
jobs" rather than recalling females with
seniority in “light” jobs. The company
was ordered to assure opportunity for
all jobs to anyone who could qualify.
© Virginia Electric Power Company
was ordered to pay $250,000 to compen-
sate black workers for wages they would
have earned if they had not been kept
from promotion by a discriminatory sys-
tem. The company was also ordered to
eliminate use of High Schoo! diploma
(or equivalent), and aptitude tests as
hiring or promotion criteria for blue
collar jobs, because these selection
methods were not job-related; to elim-
inate existing transfer and promotion
systems based on job and departmental
seniority (which perpetuated effects of
Past discrimination) and allow upward
mobility movement based on total em-
ployment seniority. Affirmative hiring
was also ordered; at least 25 percent of
new union hirees were to be non-whites,
until their level of employment in union
Jobs reached 21.5 percent. Goals were
also set for clerical jobs.
© Biack employees of the Lorillard
Corporation were awarded $50,000 in
back pay when the court found that
departmental seniority and limited
transfer rights in contracts between
this company and Its union limited ac-
cess of blacks to most Jobs, Every black
employee who had suffered loss of
Promotional and pay-raise opportunity
was compensated according to what he
would have received, based on com-
pany seniority, had the discriminatory
practices not existed. The company was
ordered to establish plant-wide seniority
and to assure that no employee transfer-
ring to a department from which he hac
been excluded would receive a wage cut.
Company and union were ordered to
change seniority and assignment sys-
tems to assure that blacks had equal
opportunity for assignment and pro-
motion to all jobs,

paid more than $125,000 to white-collar
female employees who charged they

Under terms of a consent decree, the
company also agreed to hire 20 percent

ings (subject to availability) until such
representatives were 20 percent female,

The AT&T Agreement:
Precedent and Guide
The extent of legally required affirm-
ative action to remedy discrimination
and effects of past discrimination ts
reflected in the major agreement signed
by American Telephone and Telegraph
Company with EBOC and the Depart-
ment of Labor, after more than two
years of Mtigation. This agreement, con-
firmed by a federal court consent de-
cree, may serve both as a costly warn-
ing and a helpful guide to other em-
ployers. Its major provisions include:
© Approximately $15 million—by far
the largest single back pay award ever
made—in one-time payments to thou-
sands of employees charged to have suf-
fered from discriminatory employment
practices.
© An additional estimated $50,000 in
yearly payments for promotion and wage
adjustments to minority and female
employees.
© Affirmative actions to include:
© Specific hiring and promotion tar-
gets, including goals to significantly in-
crease utilization of women and minori-
tles In every job classification, These
targets will be reviewed regularly by
EEOC and the Office of Federal Con-
tract Compliance,

Social Services Committee Report
‘The following report at the annual Dele-
gates Meeting was prepared by the So-
cial Services Committee: Richard Tar-
mey, chairman, and committee members
Donald Kochersberger, Geraldine Mo-
Graw, Paul Laniri, Steve Ragan, Patricia
Spiccl, E, Ben Porter and Grace Vallee.
The Social Services Committee met
‘twice since the last delegates meeting, A
meeting was held in conjunction with
the County delegates meeting. It was
held in Buffalo in June, A review of the
1974 legislation as it affected the Social
Services law was reviewed, Much em-
phasis was placed on the Family Services
Law of 1974 which had passed the As-
sembly and the Senate, but was vetoed
by the Governor, The veto was largely
due to the efforts of CSBA, and, in par-
ticular, the Erle County unit,
A regional meeting was held in Au-
ust at the Holiday Inn, Johnstown, In-
put was by @ management team from
the New York State Department of So-
clal Services, The meeting was well at-
tended and future regional meetings
are planned.
The most recent meeting of the Com-
mittee took place on Friday, Sept, 27, at
Albany. The Committee met with Norma
Wediake, executive secretary of the
‘Temporary Commission to Revise the
Social Services Law and Byron Hippie,

After two years of contesting exten-
sively documented government charges
of discrimination, maintaining that the
company was carrying out an effective
affirmative action program, an AT&T
official statement summed up:
“. .. Rapidly evolving legal reqitre-
ments plus . .. new administrative rules
and guidelines have changed the ground
Tules. Now that we have cleared away
the uncertainties, we are eager to get
on with the job.”
Numerical Goals and Timetables
Tt 1s clear from these legal develop-
ments that where violations of the law
found, broad remedial action to
“remove vestiges of past discrimination
. . . eliminate present and assure the
non-existence of future barriers to full
enjoyment of equal Job opportunities”
will be required, and that remedial ac-
tion often requires some kind of spe-
cial treatment for a period of time.
Courts increasingly are requiring
companies and unions to provide pre-
apprentice and apprentice training, to
hire, promote and train minorities and
females who have suffered from dis-
crimination in specified numerical ra-
tos, in specified job categories, untti
specified remedial goals are reached.
Although Title VII bars preferential
hiring simply to eliminate racial em-
ployment imbalances in relation to pop-
ulation ratios, Federal Courts conaist-
ently have found numerical goals and
timetables to be a justified and neces-
sary remedy and means of eliminating
the present effects of past discrimina-
tory practices,
TH. Federal Guidelines and Federal
Agencies involved. (Excerpts from a
speech by Hon, Leonard Garment, spe-
cial consultant to the president, to the
equal employment opportunity officers
of the Department of the Interior,
March 21, 1973.)
The new amendments to Title VII of
the Civil Rights Act, known as the
Equal Employment Opportunity Act
of 1972, give the EEOC and the De-
partment of Justice new enforcement
responsibilities for eliminating discrim-
inatory employment practices among
state and local governments, including
authority for the EEOC to seek court
enforcement of its decisions and auth-
ority for the Department of Justice to
bring civil actions against state or lo-
cal governments.

‘The trend toward greater ac-
countability off public officials
to the voters has been moving
forward at a slow pace over a
number of years. In fact the pace
was so slow that it was hardly
discernable to the naked eye.
‘The Watergate scandals contrib-

entrenched interests over the po-

44 YEARS — bito Thamasett, right, plant superintendent at
the J.N. Adam Developmental Center,
Perrysburg, receives the
congratulations of Dr. John Gibbon, left, director of the center, and

itarium, but in 1960 it became a school for the mentally retarded.
Westchester
Given Grant
WHITE PLAINS — County
Executive Alfred B, DelBello
announced the receipt of a
grant of $101,480 from the
National Couneil on Aging to op-
erate a senior services employ-
ment program in Westchester.
According to Mr. DelBello, the
program is designed to hire 50
low-income, elderly persons to
work part-time in community
service activities,
The senior community services
employment program is funded
by the Department of Labor un-
der Title IX of the Older Amer-
ican's Act of 1965. Mr. DelBello
said Westchester is one of only
three counties in the state to re-
ceive funding.
‘The County Office of the Ag-
ing, directed by Marvin Sicher-
man, will administer the pro-
gram. Mae Carpenter has been
appointed Project Director
“All those aged 55 and over
who are interested in part-time
work and are of limited income
should apply to the County Of-
tice for the Aging or call Mrs
Carpenter at 682-2669," Mr. Del-
Bello said.

Retiree Committee Eyes
Expansion To 16 Chapters:
(Editor's note: The following is the report of the statewide retirees committee de-
livered at the annual delegate meeting of the Civil Service Employees Assn. at the Hotel
Concord, Lake Kiamesha, last month. The committee chairman is Hazel G. Abrams, and
committee members are John Joyce, Nellie Davis, Florence Drew, Melba Binn, Michael J.
Murphy, John LoMonaco and
We now have 10 Retiree chap-
ters established throughout the
state. They are located in the
following regions: Kingston,
Poughkeepsie, Westchester, Capi-
tal District, Rochester, Syracuse,
Binghamton, Ithaca, Long Is-
land and Buffalo. We are looking
forward to organizing six more
chapters In the near future to
complete our plan for 16 retiree
chapters statewide. Our mem-
bership has increased consider-
ably from the 11,000 as of Sep-
tember 1973 to 16,000 as of June
1, 1974. Striving for a marked
enlargement in membership is
woing to be one of our main
goals in the upcoming year.
A request was made by the
committee for a full-time staff
position responsible directly to
the Executive Director, to act as
coordinator of retiree affairs.
Renew Legislation
At a recent meeting of the
statewide retirees committee and
retiree chapter presidents, we re-
viewed the legislation that had
been passed in the 1974 legisla-
tive session. The 1074 session
adopted legislation, now Chapter
426 of the Laws of 1974, provid-
ing additional supplemental pen-
sion for pensioners and benefici-
aries who retired prior to Jan.
1, 1969 and those retirees who
became 62 years of age prior to
June 1, 1972, We were happy and
thankful for the passage of this
bill as a good percentage of our
retirees benefited thereby. How-
ever, it did not fully meet the
expectations we had hoped for, in
particluar that the supplemental
payment is still on the year-to-
year basis.
At our meeting, the question of
our constitution was brought up.
There are certain aspects of it
we cannot abide by because of
the vast amount of territory some
of our chapters cover. We re-
quested all committee members
and chapter presidents to send in
suggestions to our staff coordina-
tor for proposed changes. We
then will submit a model const!-
tution to the constitution and
by-laws committee for approval.
The committee proposed to the
CSEA and its various committee
segments our assistance in poll-
teal-action matters. This pro-
posal was accepted with great
enthusiasm by the legislative and

political action committee. We
feel this is & great opportunity
for the Association to avail it-
self of the abilities and back-
grounds of the thousands of
members who have been active
over the years in the Association
and who still have active con-
tact with local committee lead-
ers and legislators.
Looking Ahead
The committee anticipates a
much more rewarding year. Now
that we have a direct line of
communication with Headquart-
ers through a staff coordinator,
the retirees look forward to sig-
nificant additions to our mem-
bership and satisfactory legisla-
tion on our behalf.
This year we would like to
propose to the legislative and
political action committee the
following requests:
NYC Retirees
Meeting Nov. 6
NEW YORK CITY—An orga-
nizational meeting will be held
Nov, 6 with an eye toward form-
ing a New York City retiree chap-
ter of the Civil Service Employees
Assn,
Residents of the five boroughs
of New York City who are re-
tired public employees are in-
vited to come to the session at
3 pm. at the New York City
Region 2 offices, Room 1210, 11
Park Place, Manhattan. The lo-
cation is just off Broadway, and
near City Hall.
Attention, Nassau
NORTH AMITYVILLE — An
effort is now being made to form
@ separate chapter for retirees in
Nassau County, Edwin Cleary,
supervisor for the Civil Service
Employees Assn,'’s Long Island
Region, asks interested Nassau
retirees to contact him at the
Region headquarters, 740 Broad-
way, North Amityville.
1, A realistic cost of living bill
to cover all retirees. We do not
feel a ine can be drawn as to
year of retirement in a matte;
of such great importance to the
well-being of our senior citizens
and {t is most important that
this bill be on a permanent basis.
2, Under the provisions of
law, persons retiring in the years
1966, 1967, and 1968 receive upon
retirement. an insurance certifi-
cate in the amount of $2,000.
Persons retiring in 1969 and
thereafter receive a certificate in
the amount of $3,000, We be
Neve this type of benefit shoul
be made available to persons who
retired prior to the year 1966 and
that legislation be introduced
providing therefore.
Reduce Utility Bills
3. The third item we would
like to recommend is @ 16 percent
reduction on utilities for senior
citizens. Some of our members
have spoken to their local com-
panies and find them quite ia)
ceptive to the idea,
4. As the fourth issue, we sug-
gest a legislative study on
means of financing the educa-
tional system other than real
estate. We feel that retirees are
in jeopardy of losing homes be-
cause of rising education taxes.
5. The fifth issue we would like
to propose is the establishment
of free or a reduction of rates
for public transportation for,
senior citizens. This has been in=*
stituted in numerous areas
throughout the State, but we
would like to see it encompass
the whole of New York State.
6, The last item to be proposed
would be on the federal level. We
would like to see the first $5,000
of pension income exempt from
tax
The committee requests full
support of our staff (legal divi-
sion) In introducing legislation
and efforts to secure passage of
game for the recommended items
above listed,
