| A form letter signed by Mr,

of all state units invotved out-
lining the distribution and use
of the forms.

‘The form letter sent to the state
officials by the Association reads:

“To all institution directors of

Points to Bear in Mind

“The following should also be
kept in mind In connection with
the use of the forms:

“1. The forms will be accepta-
ble to Internal Revenue only if
signed by the director, superin-
tendent, warden or other head of

State Finally Offering
Engineers Higher Pay So
Recruitment Won't Lag

ALBANY, Aug 27—A major
step has been taken by the State
Department of Public Works in
its battle to get adequate engin-
toring personne! for its staff,

Jotbn W, Johnson, Superintend-
ent of Public Works, has announc-
ed the approval of # reclassifica-
tion of sub-department and semi-
professional positions in line with
reorganization plans for the agen-
cy devised by the Division of
Classification and Compensation,
Civil Service Department

New Titles. Better Break

The new plan proposes to re-
place the present junior and sen-
for engineering alde titles with
four levels of semi-professional
titles. The new titles begin with
engineering aide and proceed
through engineering technician to
senior and principal engineering
technician,

A similar series of draftemen
titles Is pisnned,

The need for adequate per:
nel was pointed out recently by
department policy enacted because
of the extraordinarily heavy work
schedule, Unused vacation credits
were lost to department employ-
tes because the department could
not spare their workers for va-
cation time,

Polley Reversed by CSEA Bult

The department policy was re-
cently reversed after a suit was
brought by The Civil Service Em-
ployees Association and the High-
way Engineers Association In the
Supreme Court, Albany County,

‘The new reclassification {5 ex-
pected to help ease the employee
shortage,

Superintendent Johnson says
that the reclassification was, in
part, prompted by several factors,
including the vastly accelerated
highway program made possible
by the new Federal highway bill.
The need for a sufficient number
of personnel to undertake the ex~-
panded work-load If the $500,000,-

000 million highway bond issue is |

@pproved at the polls this fall,
became obvious.

Utilization of Skills

Other factors included the de-
sire to free engineers and archi-
tects from routine tasks, thus al-
lowing them to devote their time
to more important engineering
duties. The highway departments,
of several states, the Commission-
er noted, huve reported increases
of as much as 100 percent In en-
gineering output as the result of
eMcient use of professional per-
sonnel.

The reclassification will be fol-
Jowed by an intensive recruitment
and training program expected to
strengthen the department's semi-

Questions Answered

On New Pe

The U. S. Civil Service Com-
mission gave arswers to typical
questions regarding the new pen-
sion law, Here are some examples;

‘
+ What are the major changes?
They are (1) an increase in
employees’ retirement deductions, |
(2) & more liberal formula for
computing annuities, which will
result Jn higher annulties for re-
Uring employees and widows, (3)
& lower reduction rate in annul-~
tles for retirement before age 60,
(4) a minimum disability annuity,
(3) higher children's annuities, |
(6) survivor annuities for depen-
Gent widowers, (7) refunds pay-
able to separated employees with
20 or more years’ service, and (8)
no Interest to aecrue after De-
cember 31, 1956, on refunds to
separnted employees who have 5
or more years’ civilian service.

To whom does the law apply?
It applies to all employees sub-
fect. to the Retirement Act who
are In the service on and after
its effective date. This covers most
civilian employees of the Federal

nsion Law

(b) 1-3/4 percent of the “high«
five” average salary multipled by
years of service over § and up to
10, plus (c) 2 percent of the
“high-five" average salary mul~
tiplied by years of service over 10,
A substitute formula of 1 percent
of the “high-five’ average salary
plus $25 for each year of service
will produce a higher annuity
rate in the Jower salary ranges,
This substitute formula will be
used Instead of any part of the
other formula (a), (b), or (e) if
a pee annuity rate would re-
sult.

After figuring my annuity under
the new formula, am I also en-
titled to the percentage Increases
Sit last year?

lo,

Is there « minimum annuity?

No, except that an employes
retiring under the disability pro-
vision is guaranteed the lesser of
(a) 40 percent of bis “high-five*
average salary, or (b) the amount
obtained under the new formula
explained above, after Increasing

Government and the District of
Columbia Government.

How much will be deducted
from my salary for the retirement
fund?

Six and one-half percent of an
employee's basic salary.

duction from salary begin?

Deductions at 6'% percent be-
gin with the first pay period after
September 30.

Will I also have Social Security
deductions taken from my pay?

No. The 6‘2 percent is the only
retirement deduction,

Is my agency required to con-
tribute to the retirement fund?

Yes, Beginning in July, 1957
each agency will match the
amount paid by the employee,

Does the amount contributed by
my agency get credited to my re-
tirement account?

No. Agency contributions go in-
to the general retirement fund to
help pay for benefits, and will not
be credited to any employee's nc-
count.

What are the various conditions
under which an employee may re-
tire?

An employee must retire at age
70 after 15 or more years’ service.
An employee may retire the
age and with at least the amount
of service required by the law.

How much annalty will T get?

The amount of an employee's
annuity depends on various
things, the most important of
which are length of service and
the “high-five” average salary
(the highest average basic salary
earned during any five consecutive
years of service). There ts a new
formula based on years of service
and “high-five” average salary
which is used to compute the basic
annulty, The basic annuity ts sub-
| Ject to reduction for such special
conditions as retirement before
|age 60 (except disability retire-
ment) and election of @ survivor
annuity benefit.

How will I figure my annuity
under the new Jormula?

An employee's yearly annuity
Will be (a) 11s percent of the |
‘bigh-tive” average salary mul- |

tplied by 6 years of service, plus

When does this increased de-|

his service from the date of his
separation, to age 60. Of course,
if his average salary and length
of service entitle him to a larger
annuity than the minimum guar-
anteed amount, he will receive the
| Jarger annuity.

Is there « Umit on the amount
| of annuity I may receive?

Yes. Annuity may not exceed 80
| percent of the “high-five” aver-
| age salary,

Hf an annuitant retired for dis-
ability has not recovered from thé
disability for which he was re-
Ured, but is earning some money,
will his annuity be stopped?

Tt may be, If, before he reaches
age 60, his income from wages or
self employment or both for each
of two successive calendar years
is at least 80 percent of the cur-
rent salary rate of the position
from which he was retired, then
his annuity will be stopped one
year after determination is made
that his earning cap&city Is re-
stored. It also stops if medical
evidence shows that he has re-
covered from his disability or if
he ts reemployed in the Govern-
ment service,

What annulty is payable to my
wife if I should die while in ser-
view?

If an employee has five or more
years of civilian service, his wid-
ow will get an annuity of 50 per-
cent of an annuity based on the
employee's “high-five” average
salary and years of service,

How old must my widow be be-
fore she can begin to draw a wia-
ow's annuity?

A widow's annuity begins tm-
mediately on death of the em-
ployee. There {s no waiting until
the widow reaches a certain age.

THE PUBLIC
EMPLOYEE

By JOHN F. POWERS

President
Civil Service Employees Association

Social Security Won't Be Won By Default

ONE OF THE BIG ISSUES to the 1957 legisiative session will
be the question of Social Security for the public employees In New
York State.

Both political parties have already stated thelr positive Interest
in the subject. The State Comptroller has advocated the full ad-
dition of Social Security benefits to retirement benefits (supplemen-
tation), Governor Averell Harriman in his legisiative message in
1056 said that “State employees are entitled to the obvious advan
tages of the Social Security system, but without any net tmpairment
of their existing benefits.”

Despite these seemingly favorable attitudes, the public employees
should not allow themselves to regard @ Social Security plan as an
accepted fact, A lot may have happened to change the legisintive or
administrative mind—or a lot could happen between now and Jan-
wary.

Public employees without question want Social Security—and
they want the full supplementation of it to thetr retirement bene-
fits. They do not want any plans for partial benefits commonly
called integration,

It is not too early for public employees to begin to plan to obtain
supplementation. A well-organized carnpalan on both state and
local levels surely would prove influential with attention of the leg-
administration.

Pensions Should Be Made
Fully Tax-Exempt
UBLIC employee groups might well maintain constant

P vigilance committees. Sometimes movements hurt-
ful to public employees, or pensioners of public employee |
retirement systems, are far under way before any con-!
certed effort is made to stop them.

A case in point is the stand taken by the American
Institute of Accountants, which wants an official study
made of the Federal income tax law. No doubt such a
study is well in order, but association leaders have spoken
unfavorably of the extension of capital gains treatment to
include pension plans,

Public employees have struggled hard and long,
and so far unsuccessfully, to get public employee pen-
sions totally exempted from Federal income taxation, just
as the State exempts its own pensioners from State income
tax, and the Federal government exempts Social Security
and Railroad Retirement System pensions. Employees in
general, who pay a Federal income tax on their salary,
from which their annuity contributions are deducted, also
pay a limited tax on the pension they receive, In other
words, the same money, so to speak, is taxed going in and
coming out,

Multiple taxation should offend the taxpayer's con-
acience, if not the government's,

Listing of Future Tests

sued, and at about the same time, comprehensive lists!

FINDS CAREER PLAN
CAN STAND IMPROVEMENT

* | Editor, The LEADER:

The LEADER published an ex-
cellent editorial on Oct, 11, 1955
entitied: “Career and Salary Plan
Undergoing Crucial Test.” It was
on the subject of out-of-title work
ansignmenta in the New York City
elvil service. It stated in part:

“The question will naturally
arise, whether an employee doing
& fine job as head of # payroll
division, who has an engineering
title, should be supplanted by
someone from a payroll title pro-~
motion list who has neither the
education nor the experience of
the incumbent. The frank answer
is, the eligible must get the Job,

“Sometimes jobs are filled by
free appointment, transfer, desig-

| nation, or ‘detail’, with employees

of superior calibre. It ls no de-
fense, In any particular case, to
plead privately determined meth-
od, HS against publicly determin-
ed merit. The Merit System was
created for the general welfare.
While that system may not al-
ways result In the appointment
of the best qualified candidate,
the average quality of the candl-
dates chosen competitively will be
higher than that of personal and
informal appointees,

“How the City handles the cru-
cial problem of making depart-
ments conform to the letter of the
Jaw will be an outstanding criter-
fon of how serious !s the effort to
put the whole personnel system
on # standardized, legal, sctent-
flo basis,”

Method Provided by Resolution

Section IV of the companion
resolution drawn by the Person-
nel Department on August 19,
1954 had this to say on the man-
ner In which the results of the
desk audit would be determined:
“—the reclassification and sal-
ary gvade reallocation of positions
shall be made on the basis of the
actual duties and responsibilities

quirements based on such duties
and responsibilities as determined
by the Department of Personne.”
Recently the desk or job audit

want to know well in advance when the application per-|
fod will be open, and when the written or other tests will
be held. They prepare accordingly, by school or home
study. Moreover, interest in civil service positions is arous-
ed generally. |

Such listings sre not an unimportant part of long-
range planning.

The State has been doing this steadily, but the City
had slipped back somewhat in recent years, so it is well
to find it on its toes again,

Work-Study Program for Collegians

TWENTY-THREE college students are participating {in a 10+
week summer work-study program in the New York State governs
ment, Residents of the state, they have completed their junior year
in college. They are employed in 14 state agencies in Albany. At
Jeast once a week the group meets with top state officials who can
give a broader picture of the government than the students could
get from their assignments in one specific agency.

Alexander A. Falk, President of the State Civil Service Com-
mission, Said the object is to stimulate undergraduate interest in
careers in the New York State Government, The trainees get an
on-the-job look at career opportunities for college-trained personnel,

“We hope that many of these students will return to atate
employment after graduation, and that they will influence their
Classmates to compete for state positions,” President Falk said,

Students were selected by college officials on the basis of scho-
lastic ability and interest in government service. They receive $60
fi week, and free lodging in the State University dormitory,

Although private industry sponsors summer programs for stu-
dents, the Civil Service Assembly believes this (s the first time
& state govertiment has undertaken a work-study program of this
kind.

Device to Recruit Engineers
« During the past year the Department of Water and Power of
Los Angeles, in cooperation with the City’s Civil Service Department,
has been trying to improve its recruitment of engineers.

Student engineer positions have heen established to provide
summer jobs for sophomores and juniors. To date, 62 students en-
rolled in the engineering departments of several California unf-
versities have been employed,

Special attention Is given to career opportunities. The depart-
ment hopes to induce a good proportion to compete in written exams
inations for regular appointment as professional engineers as soon
as the collegians get their deerces,

Defense Against Radioactiv:
The New York City Fire Department's Pire College, in coopera=
tion with the New York Office of Civil Defense, is instructing 250
firemen tn how to detect and combat radioactive materials. It Je
estimated that within the City there are 400 users of radioactive
isotopes in industry, medicine and science, These materials are
rated 4s presenting fire dangers to persons and property.
‘Tho firemen are learning about the characteristics of fission and
fusion explosions, and are instructed in how to place fire-fighting
equipment at a fire involving radloactive materials, and how to
protect themselves from radiation by decontaminating their gear,
When the training program is completed, it will provide suff.

lent manpower schooled in radiological hazards to have one such
expert on duty 24 hours # day in each of the city’s 48 fire-fighting
battalions.

Uniform Assessment Date Sought

‘The National Association of Assessing Officers says that there
fs a trend toward making January 1 the*date on which taxable
property is assessed, but that there Js a long way to go before
the states reach uniformity, The date ts the one on which property
ts assessed ay to its value for tax purposes, If a person owned @
house on the assessment date but sold it the next day, he would
still have to pay taxes on the house for a year,

Twenty-two states now use the January 1 assessment date,
Two others—Idaho and Tennessee—use another day in January,

The second most common assessment date is April 1, used tn
Tilinois, Maine, New Hampshire, North Dakota, and Vermont, Bix
states use a March date: Colorado, Indiana, and Kansas have March
1; California and Montana use the first Monday in March; and
Nebraska has March 10, May 1 fs the assessment date in Wisconsin,
Minnesota, and South Dakota, except that cities from the first to
third class in South Dakota use March 20,

Alabama and New Jersey and a majority of the cities in Cone
necticut use October 1; Washington, D, C,, has July 1,

Rhode Island changed its asvesament date jn 1949 but pleked
December 31 for the now date, instead of January 1, Wyoming ts
the only state having its assessment date in February.

In the five remaining states—Arizona, Delaware, Nevada, New
York, and Pennsylvania—no one date is used

Tables of Equivalence (also pro-
vided for in Sec, IV of the com-
panion resolution), even though
the tables were part of the de-
feated bill

Upgradings Different Service

However, the tables, in most
cases, only provided for upgrad-
ings in the same service, This
meant thut if Incumbents were to
be kept in their Jobs, it would
be impossible in many cases to
@o so in accordance with their
duties and responsibilities, since
their jobs were far removed from
their titles, and actually fell in-
to entirely different services than
those of the incumbents, And so,
Im these cages, the jobs were com-
pletely disregarded and the in-
cumbents upgraded (promoted
without examination) into titles
in their own particular services.
Thus in The LEADER'S example,
the engineer who was head of a
payroll division would be upgraded

to a higher grade in the engincer- |

Ing service. 4
‘This method of reciassifying tn-
cumbents instead of positions ts
Plainly evident in the upgradings
announced for my department,
Incumbents with similar Jobs
Were given titles in different ser-
vices—the particular incumbents’
own Others are re-
Classified into titles (also in their
own services) that have absolute~

services,

ly no relation to the duties of
their positions, At the same time,
other positi that clearly were

begging to be upgraded were com-
pletely lected. In my division
every upgraded position was held
by an incumbent who had re
ed discretionary raises recently.
Legal Issues Raised

The legality of the City’s x
od of promoting by upgrading in-
cumbents, who are already in es-
tabli@hed grades, is highly ques-
tionable. The fact that they
ta unlimited grades prior to July

1, 1954 does not alter the fact
that they were placed In grades
with a maximum as of that date
even though this was subject to
& desk audit. Court decisions have
held that once position 1s up-
graded, the only way the salary
of an incumbent muy be inereas-
ed beyond the maximum of the
grade, is by passing ® promotion
examination and receiving a pro-
Motion to the next higher grade

ruled against mich a “saving

CIVIL SERVICE LEADER

Employees Voice Threats

tn a table of equivalencies that
the City’s Department of Person
hel itself set up.

‘The sult asks the court to order
all such promotions rescinded and
protiblt the City from attempting
to make any more such promotions
in the future.

This has become the leading
and most heated (issue In municl-
pal civil service.

if the grading resolution, on which
the City Civil Service Commission
will soon hold « public hearing, ts
adopted, ‘There is no objection to
competitive classification, only to
grading, because grading freeses
pay seales, while the Labor Law
permits constant adjustment to
the higher prevailing rates of pri-
vate industry.
Meal Charges a Hot Issue

One of the bitterest results of a
new turn of events under the Wag-
ner Admiistration is the fury en-
gendered In Hospitals Department
employees by the innovation of in-
flicting meal charges on those of
them who five out. Some employ-
eeu threaten to resign if the meal
charges, instituted July 4 last, are
not cancelled.

To gain their objective the em-~-
ployees practiced a meals boycott
that left the hospital dining-rooms
empty for a day Another boycott
is set for August 31, Also, 13,000 of
them signed petitions that a
Teamster delegation delivered to
the Mayor's office, demanding can-
cellation, Some employees, who
| did not have the money to buy the
necessary 10 tickets In bulk, as re~
| quired, signed IOU's instead, The

Action In Kind

The reavon why the issue has
attracted statewide attention is
that violation of the State Civil
Service Law, and even of the State
Constitutton, is charged. This ac-
counts for the fact that the State
Federation of Labor has taken a
stand against the ’Mayor on this
score, on the same principle that
actuates other employee groups
when they ronsider the Merit Sys-
tem is being endangered.

Failure to restore the equitable
relationship of salaries, destroyed
ver the years by percentage pay

vailing in local private industry,

Some of the unions in. these)

groups haye been strong political
supporters of Mayor Wagner in
the past, and worked hard to help
get him elected Mayor, although
where they would stand if May-
or Wagner runs for the U. 3,

men will vacate is open to dis-
cussion, if the grading is adopted.

by the fact that they are paid the

are in the vast majority, denounce
as rank injustice.

An aspect of the policy of up-
grading titles, or assigning: higher
titles, both actions producing
higher pay, also ts drawing In-
creasing adverse criticiam. Em-

Cia HYGIENE MEMO

By A. J. COCCARO

‘The State Mental Hygiene workers, through the efforts of thelr
employee organizations, have made steady progress during the past

10 years, but these changes have been too little

nd too Inte, We

are lagging behind private industry. This ls the reason State pos-
{tions have been termed second-rate jobs.

In private industry = five-day work week for office employers,
is from 9 A.M. to 5 P.M,, with one hour for lunch, constituting #
35-hour work-week. Some offices now work @ 30-hour woek, It is
common practice for the employees to have a short break In mid-

morning &nd mid-afternoon.

Who Wants Prevailing Rates
By contrast, the office employee in the institutions of New York

State works from 8 A.M

to 5 P.M., a nine-hour period, There are
no mid-morning ot afternoon break:

Unless arranged by the local

institution or supervisor, This ts a long stretch of hours for per-
sons doing tedious clerical duties, such as typing, stenography, book

entries and calucuations,

Can one get high-rate production for a nine-hour stretch?
Does the fatigue point advance rapidly during or after the max-

imum effective period?

Do we take into consideration the added time In traveling to
and from work? These are matters which our state should consider
in scheduling employee work hours, or must the State worker be

continually behind?

Our state should Pee tng cos for private industry instead of

continously lagging be!

ATTENDANCE RULES DIFFER
Even more discouraging 1s the difference between the institu-
tional attendance rules and attendance rules for employees In other

New York State departments.

In state departments generally, Rule 1, Attendance Section IT,
relating to working week, provides that the work-week In adminis-
trative offices shall be 37} hours and five days, The attendance rules
for Institutional employees in the Departments of Correction, Health,
Mental Hygiene and Social Welfare, state that the work-week for
all institutional employees, other than those specifically excluded,

shall be 40 hours.

The clerk working In an institution, holding the same title,
getting the same pay, and who Is in the same grade as an employee
in another state department, works two and a half hours a week
more, for the same salary. This represents approximately 120 hours

& year more.

Do Institution workers have more stamina?
Do institution workers have more work-load?

Are they slower workers?

No matter what the reason for this difference, this situation
hurts employee morale to such an extent that production gained

from these extra hours x offset,

HOW EMPLOYEES FEEL ABOUT HOURS

Surveys have been made to see if the Institutions can operate
with the present staff, with the work-week reduced to 371% hours
for office employees, There {s some question whether this can or
cannot be done without increasing the number of employees. The
same Job can be done on a 37/%-hour work-week basis, the employees
feel, the State institutions have even lagged behind the counties in
respect to treatment of clerical help,

In a letter to Alexander A. Falk, president of the State’ Civil
Service Commission, our employees’ association took a firm stand in
favor of a basic five-day work-week, of 3744 hours for institution
employees. This stand has the wholehearted endorsement of the

employees,

Health Insurance Plan

Will Start as

ALBANY, Aug, 27—Concerned
lest the state’s health insurance
plan does not get underway on
the legislated date, The Civil
Service Employees Association
wrote to President Alexander A.
Falk of the State Civil Service
Commission, asking his assur
ances, President Pulk is chairman
of the Temporary State Health
Insurance Board.

“Our Association,” Mr. Powers
wrote, “is yery much concerned
about the amount of work that

“State employees anticipate the
start of this program on Janu-
ary 1, and will be extremely dis-
appointed if the start is delayed,

“It is the clear Intention of the |
Governor and the Legislature that
the program start on January 1.)
and In fact the appropriation ory
$1,500,000 for the present fiscal |
year is one-fourth of the anticl- |
pated annual state contribution |
for a full year, and provides the |
funds to start the program on

Joint Plan Meets

Assn. Board

On Health Insurance

“What kind of health insurance
is best for State employees?”

The Civil Service Employees As-
sociation, at its first meeting |
with the State Temporary Health
Insurance Board, answered that
question in a series of practical,
constructive proposals for hospi-
tal, medical and surgical tnsur-
ance coverage,

“Where can we get that type
of coverage?” many employees are
now asking,

The Association's proposals have
been met, point by point, in the
new comprehensive Blue Cross, |
Shield contract which will soon
be obtainable by State employees.

Because of the long-range plan-
ning made possible by passage |
of the health insurance bill, all
Blue Cross, Blue Shield Plans in
New York State have been able)
to produce a combined program
they report as unmatched by any |
individual plan or program now
ta effect, Moreover, the new pro-|
n will be offered to the 53,000
State employees now enrolled in
the Plans at less than current |
subscription costa.

Features Listed

tures of the Blue Cross, Blue

How to Tell the Difference

Many insured employees do not
have the maximum amount of
insurance that their wages permit,
| Otter employees are not insured
for occupational coverage (acci-
dents occurring on the fob.) Ap-
plications were provided for ap-
plying for higher mits of month-
ly indemnity, A card was’ pro-
puaee on which a policyholder
should indicate his desire to have

| whether eccupational coverage is
| included or not, in the third para-
Sraph on Page 1. If the word
|"vold’ is printed in the blank,
the Insured does not have occu-
| pational coverage. A slight in-
|ereaye in the deduction will pro-
vide this coverage, and it i# well
worth while to have both on-the-
job and off-the-job coverage, 24

vines,
