No Snow Job!
Time Off OKd
For Absences
ALBANY—Gov, Hugh L.
Carey has announced that
state employees unable to
get to work during the
fierce snow storm Feb. 2
wil be excused for the day's
absence.
Those who were able to
report will be given com-
pensatory time off, Carey
said.
The snow storm, with
high winds which reduced
visibility to near zero in
many areas, forced the
closing of numerous state
offices, including nearly
all in the Albany area.
Carey's statement squel-
ched rumors among state
workers that he was plan-

City Worker Ranks
Continue Shrinking
thousands of already out-of-work
municipal employees.
Most of the upcoming layoffs
resulted from reorganizing YBA.
Seventy-nine YSA workers, in-
cluding $38,771-a-year Commis-
sioner Nyrka Torrado, lost their
jobs. The agency's functions will
be taken up by other city de-
partments including the Youth
Board and the Department of
Recreation, The Summer Youth
Employment Program will be run
by the city Department of Em-
ployment.
City officials estimate savings
$3.4 million.
The dismissal of eight persons
in the Health Services Adminis-
tration is expected to save $191,-
144 a year. Five of the soon-to-
be-laid off workers earn $25,000
or more a year. The Mayor's of-
fice and City Council also hope
to reorganize HSA and are ex-
ploring the possibility of trans-
ferring the functions of the Ad-
diction Services Agency to the
Health Department.
“The fiscal constraints of the
city and the need to provide the
most efficient health services pos-
sible leaves us little alternative
but to terminate these public
servants,” said Mayor Beame.
In the Transportation Admin-
istration 11 workers are being
laid off, five demoted, and one
employee is receiving changed
work duties. This step will save
the city $538,000 a year.
Mayor Beame says the dismis-
sals are effective Jan. 30. Pink
slips are being sent out now.

Proposed Prison Rule Changes
Draw Criticism From CSEA Group
ALBANY—Members of the Civil Service Employees Assn,’s Law Enforcement Commit-
tee have objected to three proposals made by Herman Schwartz, acting chairman of the
State Commission of Correction, to liberalize and expand prisoner's rights in the areas of
correspondence, visitation, and religion.
The group represents jailers
who are represented by CSEA
in local sheriff's departments,
The committee cited a sub-
stantial decrease in security and
control of the prisoners within
an institution resulting in an in-
crease in danger to jail person-
nel, other prisoners and possibly
visitors, as the reason for their
objections to Mr. Schwartz’ pro-
posal regarding visitation. His
proposed policy, according to the
committee, called for no limit
CSEA Wins Suffolk Case
Involving Job Appointments
HAUPPAUGE —The Civil Service Employees Assn. has
won a landmark decision in Suffolk County Supreme Court
upholding the principle that a vacant civil service position
must be filled by a person who has passed the examination

is given. Otherwise, the position
must remain vacant.

Pleasantville Unit Asking Parity
With Teachers & Administrators
PLEASANTVILLE—The Pleasantville School District unit, Civil Service Employees
Assn., is asking for the same fringe benefits and salary increases for non-teaching employ-
ees as is granted by the district to teachers and administrators.
Connie Greene, unit president, said, “We have to pay the same increases for food
and for doctors and dentists that
the teachers do, so why shouldn't
we receive the same fringe bene_
fite and raises?”
The Pleasantville CSEA unit
has been asking for a dental
plan, disability benefits, life in-
surance and a 7.5 percent wage
increase for the school district's
31 non-teaching employees. The
contract expired January 1975.
‘The school board has not agreed
to the demands. A fact-finder’s
report was made on the question
CSEA or the school board. An-
other hearing is expected soon.
CSEA held a quiet demonstra-
tion outside the Pleansantville

Ms, Greene added the board
has offered to provide a dental

& $250 bonus, “But this is not
enough in today's continuing ris-
ing cost-of-living.”
There is a 10 to 20 step pro-
gram in effect now but the unit
wants a six-step salary program,
she said.
Ms. Greene said the unit and

board’s proposal before discus-
sions take place.
“After all, they will have our

what they are proposing?”
this principle by appointing a
woman to the position of female
corrections officer II (sergeant)
after the woman had taken the
exam for the job but failed it.
In doing so, the sheriff neglected
to appoint Lorraine Weeks to the
job. Ms. Weeks had taken the
same exam and passed it,
Ms. Weeks filed a grievance
through CSEA, claiming that if
the job were to be filled at all,
she should be the one who should
be appointed to it.
Ms. Weeks and the other
woman were the only women to
take the exam for the vacant
female corrections officer II po-
sition. Civil Service Law requires
that vacant competitive jobs be
filled by an appointment from
among the three highest scorers
on the eligible lisi—the list of
those who passed the exam.
Nevertheless, the sheriff disre-
garded the law in this case and
appointed the other woman to
the job, on a provisional basis.
Justice Scileppi of the Suffolk
County Supreme Court said in
his decision, “If Ms. Weeks and
the other person had both
passed the competitive examina-
tion, and both were on the list,
the sheriff could have validly
appointed the other person rath-
er than Ms, Weeks. The problem,
however, is that the other per-
son did not pass the test and
was not even on the eligibility

on who may visit a prisoner, a
guarantee of visits within 24
hours of commitment, limited
searching of visitors and mini-
mal supervision during visita-
tion, among other suggestions.
In the area of religion, the
committee opposed Mr. Schwartz’
proposals for allowing prisoners
the right to select their diet by
observing “dietary laws,” citing
the inconvenience to jail person-
nel of covking several different
meals or obtaining meals from
an outside source. The commit-
tee also objected to allowing un-
ruly prisoners housed in disci-
plinary segregation religious
rights which might result in de-
creased security. The wearing
of religious metals or symbols,
the committee reported, should
also not be allowed because of
the possibility of the jewelry be-
ing made into weapons.
Mr. Schwartz’ proposal regard-
ing correspondence “so greatly
limits the jail personnel’s right
of contro] that a search warrant
is needed to even open a ket-
ter,” according to the commit-
tee's report. Permission to allow
various foods, trinkets, published
materials, including pornograph-
ie material, was also objected to
by the committee.
The group accused Schwartz
of “carrying his concern for the
individual prisoner's freedom to
such @ degree that he has com-
pletely forgotten the rights of
Jail employees, law enforcement
officers and the public.”
The committee's findings have
been sent to local CSEA repre-
sentatives involved in law en-
forcement for their comments.

RETIREMENT
NEWS & FACTS
By A. L. PETERS
NYC Retirements
A total of 527 New York City
retirements were approved last
week by the Retirement Board.
Of these 114 retired without op-
tion; 144 under Option 1; 67
under Option 2; 82 under Op-
tion 3; 78 under Option 4; 11
under Option 4-2; 29 under Op-
tion 4-3; 2 under Option 4-4
Payment of ordinary death ben-
efits was paid to 35, and approv-
al for disability was approved for
80 and denied for 6. There were
26 revisions of retirement.
Loans amounting to $6,993,360
were approved for 4,570 members.
An additional 419 members with-
drew excess ~—contribtuions
amounting to $1,629,820.
M you have been disabled be-
fore the age of 24, you need not
have the total of three years’
work to be eligible for Social Se-
curity benefits. One and a half
years of work will qualify you.
Sex discrimination pokes its
head into the retirement picture
with a curious problem: The
EEOC requires that women end
men should draw equal pension
benefits when they retire. The
Labor Department says employ-
ers must contribute equal
amounts to the pension funds
regardless of the benefits. How-
ever, inasmuch as women out-
live men by an average of more
than 10 years, if an employer
makes equal contributions, the
women's pensions will be lower;
and if the women’s pensions are
equalized, the contributions for
them have to be substantially
higher. Detroit's Wayne State
University 1s facing the problem.
They were charged with pension
bias against women in 1973 and
chim they would have to put
im $1.2 million to equalize the
fund for women and an addi-
tional $225,000 a year to keep it
that way.
LETTERS TO THE
Benefit Crisis
M you are 22 years old today,
and a middle-income wage earn-
er, and you work until you are
65, you can expect to pay sev-
eral hundred thousand dollars
in Social Security taxes before
you retire, This is substantially
more than you would pay to get
equivalent benefits if you just
saved your money. This is one of
many startling! observations
made by Warren Shore in a new
book, “Social Security,” just
published by Macmillan. The au-
thor makes a point that Social
Security is no longer a supple-
ment to your private savings but
actually a way of providing sus-
tenance to everyone who does
net have the means of suport
when he or she is unable to
work.

What's Your Opinion
QUESTION
Do you support Assemblyman Leonard Stavisky’s bill to restore millions
of dollars to the New York City Board of Education?
THE PLACE
Lower Manhattan
OPINIONS
Joan Goldstein, former teacher: “All of the cuts
: in the city have been on neces-
sary services, such as education
and health and welfare. I have
seen a great deal of money
cut out of the education sys-
tem in the city and I think
it's absolutely a crime, I believe
the money should stay in edu-
cation—they should not be cut-
ting it out as if it were an
unnecessary frill to the people
of the city. But to support the
bill is to say you support education and not neces-
sarily other essential areas. We have to deal in a
larger sense with how much we value not only
education, buta Iso health and other services in
the city of New York.”
Kate Klein, director, Mayor's Action Center: "I
do not support this bill. And
the reason I do not, is because
| it would jeopardize the whole
financial recovery plan for this
city. We are in a shrinking eco-
nomic base in this city; our ex-
penses are going up and up be-
cause of inflation, whether it's
gasoline for police cars and
ambulances, or for institutions
like hospitals—we just can't af-
ford to do it. The state prob-
ably will not be able to give additional aid—they
are in a financial bind too, so I don’t really know
where they would get the sources from.”
Michael Spano, Mail order clerk: “Yes I do sup-
port the bill, because I think
education is very valuable. If
the older generation shows
youngsters different types of
education, it's beneficial. They
shouldn't cut back on areas like
math and science, because if a
child isn’t introduced to this,
he isn't aware of it. I don’t
& know what agencies Mayor
Beame could cut from to re-
store the money, but I'm sure
there are agencies that could suffer the cuts
better than education.”
James Weigert, attorney, Human Resources Ad-
ministration: “I feel this is an-
other example of the state
dumping the city. I agree with
Mayor Beame that it's abso-
lutely ridiculous to force New
York City to do this when they
don’t have the money, They
would be forced to make cuts
in other areas. If the state
wants to pass this kind of bill,
then it should also pass some
kind of appropriation bill to
supply some of the funds. I recognize education
as an essential service—I'm not happy with the
educational cutbacks, but at the same time, there
are a lot of other areas that can't afford cutbacks,
and would be affected by this.”
Ira Gottliel, student: “I think there are some
city agencies that might be able
to be cut back, rather than
education. The city’s schools
are a mortgage on the future,
and the money should be re-
§ stored. I think it’s one of the
most important priorities this
city has. We would end up with
worse problems in the ‘uture if
we sacrifice the education of
city’s: children now. There are
overlaps between federal, state
and city agencies—some of the duties may be
assumed by any one of them, and these are the
areas in which we should cut.’
Naguib Yassa, accountant, Water Resources: “Edu-
cation is very important to the
city and to the people by all
means. Especially to children
and youngsters of all ages. At
the same time, other agencies
are important, But if it's pos-
sible to use money from some
not so important areas for edu-
cation, it would be a good idea.
I'm not sure where they could
cut from, but if they research
it, they could probably find
other areas that could be cut, and use that money
to improve the educational system in New York
City.”

Mayoralty Manicness
AST week was the week for showing us all that several
mayors throughout the State are suffering a severe
case of dingbat-itis when it comes to civil service employees.
Up in Utica, Mayor Edward A. Hanna continued his
fascinating anties in dismantling city services by announcing
the firing of everybody in Utica’s public works department.
His Honor promises more of the same in other departments
in order “to help free us from the unions . . . because they
are ruining the lives of our taxpayers.”
Most of the town's needs can be handled by private con-
tracts, he claims. In the meantime, Utica residents can look
forward to lower taxes, higher crime, less service and a lot
more cockroaches.
Down around New York City, Mayor Abe Beame joined
five other mayors from various areas to plead with the State
to match them in bloodletting in terms of firing more
State workers “in order to keep up with municipalities’ at-
tempts to lower their budgets.” What, when, where and how
were not suggested. Nor, in a rare show of native cunning,
did any of the seven mayors give an up-date on efficiency
and waste-saving in their own bailiwicks. The theory is that
if there are more State workers fired there will be more
funds freed for solving local problems.
Meantime, back in Utica . . .!
The CSEA Win
E WOULD like to tender our sincere congratulations to
the Civil Service Employees Assn. in its resounding vic-
tory over the Public Employees Federation in the runoff
election last week for representation rights in the state's
Professional, Scientific and Technical Bargaining Unit.
The margin of victory was a comfortable one — 14,321
votes for CSEA, 10,184 votes for PEF. It clearly shows that
PS&T members around the state prefer to be represented by
a union with a proven track record at the conference table
and in other areas of interest to state workers.
CSEA president Theodore C, Wenzl summed it all up
very tly, we think, “We had the real issues and they
didn’t,” he said. “While PEF was fighting a paper war with
us, CSEA was fighting the real battles— layoffs, waste in
government, lulus, you name it.” Dr. Wenzl pointed out that
the recent tour around the state by CSEA officials and As-
semblyman Andrew Stein (D-L, Manhattan), head of the
OCSEA/Stein Committee on Waste and Inefficiency in Gov-
ernment, served to focus employee attention on the fact that
CSEA was acting, not merely talking.
We hope that the PS&T victory for CSEA will be an
omen for the coming contract talks between the union and
the state.

spoken on that subject.
According to Assemblyman Ol-
iver G. Kopell, Bronx Democrat
and Chairman of the Assembly
Committee on Environment and
Conservation, the Legislature is
likely to act this week on a bill
which would establish nolse
standards for planes using Ken-
nedy Airport at decibel levels be-
jow those which can be achieved
by the Concorde. Equally expedi-
tious action is expected in the
Senate, where Senator John D.
Caemmerer, Nassau Republican,
and Chairman of Senate Com-
mittee on Transportation, is a
sponsor of the contemplated leg-
islation.
The principal sponsors of the
bill in the Assembly are Assem-
blyman Alexander Grannis of
Manhattan and Assemblyman
Edward Abramson of Queens.
The Assembly bill has 80 co-
sponsors, or four more than the
required 76 votes to pass a bill
in that body.
Favorable action on the pro-
posed legislation would foreclose
contrary action by the Port Au-
thority of New York and New
Jersey which operates and main-
tains Kennedy Airport. Assem-
blyman Koppell has long been
a critic of the Port Authority
and is the sponsor of a number
of bills to make that bi-state
agency more responsive to pub-
Ue scrutiny and accountability.
Assemblyman Koppel] has also
been working with New Jersey
Assemblyman Philip Van Wag-
goner, Chairman of that body's
Committee on the Environment,
for enactment by New Jersey of
similar legislation to foreclose
us? of Newark Airport by the
Concorde. If New Jersey acts ac-
coordingly, it would mean that
the Concorde would effectively
be barred from flights over this
region. Assemblyman Koppell ex-
pressed confidence that New Jer-
sey would act favorably on this
legislative program.
The idea for barring Kennedy
Airport to supersonic alrcraft
through control of noise levels,
Assemblyman Koppell said, or-
iginated with Assemblyman An-
drew Stein, who made a thor-
ough study of the Concorde
threat to the environment sever-
val years ago. In the course of
that study, Mr, Stein travelled
to England and France to get a
first hand view of the problems
from the engineers who were
engaged in designing the air-
craft,
The Port Authority has not
yet, at presstime for The Civil
Service Leader, made public its
views on Secretary Coleman's
decision, However, Gov, Hugh
Carey has made it clear that if
that agency takes steps to au-
thorize the Concorde to use Ken-
nedy Airport, he would veto such
action, The veto of the Governor
is sufficient under the law to
override a decision of the Port
Authority. By the same token,
Gov, Brendan Byrne of New Jer-
sey has also announced that he
would veto any action that the
Port Authority may take in the
future to permit Concorde land-
ings at Newark Airport,
While Secretary Coleman's de-
cision aroused widespread public
concern and fears over the en-
vironmental impact of Concorde
fights, in view of the proapec-
tive action by the State Legisla~
ture, it seems hardily likely that
the Concorde will be landing
here in the very near future.

Negotiation Subjects
The issue of mandatory and non-mandatory, or permis-
sive, subjects for collective negotiations continues to be a
difficult one to deal with. A recent decision by the New
York State Public Employment Relations Board dealt with e
several negotiating demands by the Scarsdale Police Benevo-
lent Assn., Inc. The case came before PERB on a charge of
improper practices filed by the Village of Scarsdale against
the SPBA because the police group had continued to insist
upon several negotiating demands to the point of impasse
and right into the fact-finding procedure. The matter was
heard by PERB pursuant to Sec. 204.4 of the Rules of Pro-
cedure which provides for an expedited hearing procedure
on the rules of “scope of negotiation.”
Some of the demands made by SPBA, and PERB's de-
cision on each, follow: e
* 76 U6
DEMAND NO. 2. “All promotions are to be filled within
thirty (30) days after vacancy.” SPBA argued that this was a
question involving the safety of the remaining subordinate
employees, The Village argued that such a demand would
preclude the employer from effecting reductions in person-
nel. PERB agreed with the Village and held that a demand
which would restrict reductions in staff size is a permissive
and not a mandatory subject of negotiations.
age
DEMAND NO. 4. “If any mechanical or safety defect in
a patrol vehicle has been properly reported and not corrected e
within two (2) days, such police vehicle shall be considered
not fit for use by the Police Department and removed from
service until the mechanical or safety defect has been cor-
rected.” SPBA argued that this demand involved safety, The
Village took the position that there might be very well a
mechanical defect in a vehicle which does not involve safety.
PERB held that the unit employees could not be required to
ride in unsafe vehicles and that this would be a mandatory
subject of negotiations, However, the Village is correct inso-
far as the demand may go beyond that. The Village could
very well assign such a vehicle to a non-unit employee. e
aan tay
DEMAND NO. 5. “No superior officer shall assign, di-
rect or order a member to operate a municipal vehicle which
is mechanically deficient or does not satisfy the safety re-
quirements of the New York State Vehicle Inspection Law."
Both SPBA and the Village viewed this as an extension of
Demand No. 4, PERB held that to the extent it involved
safety of unit employees, it is a mandatory subject for ne-
gotiations.
ig) ae te
DEMAND NO. 6, “No member shall be assigned, directed
or ordered to do any type of repair on any police vehicle.” @
The Village argued that negotiations concerning job content
(Continued on Page 7)
Civil Service Law & You =
(Continued from Page 6)
unduly restricted its managerial
function, PERB held that “Job
content of current employees is
& mandatory subject of negotia-
tions so long as the negotiations
demand would not narrow the
inherent nature of the employ-
ment involved. The demand un-
der question would not so nar-
row the nature of the work of
policemen,”
DEMAND NO. ‘If a member
is investigated by any unit or
appointee of this Department, he
shall be notified at the comple-
tion of the investigation as to
the results thereof.” PERB held
that this is a non-mandatory
subject of negotiations. A police-
man who is investigated for pos-
sible criminal conduct is in the
same position regarding the pro.
tection of his rights as any other
citizen.
DEMAND NO. 21, “All patrol
vehicles shall be equipped with
air conditioning as agreed to in
previous negotiations.” The Vil-
lage argued that because there
are no safety implications in this
demand, it is not a mandatory
subject of negotiations. SPBA
argued that since the comfort of
the employees is involved, it 1s
a term and condition of employ-
ment. PERB agreed with SPBA
on this demand and held that
the “Village's objections are
more properly directed to the
merits of the demand than to
its negotiability.” Scarsdale PBA

Southern Region At Meeting
Prepares Its Political Muscle
s NEWBURGH—Southern Region III of the Civil Service Employees Assn. “is going all
5 out to develop political muscle for public employees,” regional president James J. Lennon
mY pledged at a meeting of the region’s political action committee chairmen at the Holiday
Inn here.

said. e
“Instead, you bring up one
important piece of legislation and
mobilize support for that. When
that bill gets passed you work
on the next most important bill.”
Mr. Langer pointed out that
the efforts of the joint commit-
tee on waste and inefficiency in
government headed by Assembly-
man Andrew Stein (D-L, Man-
hattan) are also going to help to
protect public employee jobs and e
salaries, The joint committee
formed by Mr. Stein and CSEA
is trying to identify places where
the millions of dollars are lost
each year in state and munici-
pal government through admin-
istrative inefficiency and poll-

political action effort, said that
one of the most effective things
public employees and their fami-
lies can do is to contribute some
of their time and energy to pro-
CSEA candidates.
“Give the candidate one day
or one evening a week or even a
month, answering telephones or
working in their headquarters. If
you even give them three hours
a month, it is a lot more than
they often get from their other
political supporters. The import-
ant thing ts that the candidates
get to know that the extra boost
they need to make the differ-
ence between victory and defeat
will come from CSEA backing,”
Mr, Lennon said.
To make sure efforts are con-
centrated in behalf of candidates,
Southern Region TI will have a
political action fund, the re-
gion president said. Priorities can
be set up for spending the mon-
ey collected, he added.

Former Job To Injured Woman
ALBANY—A 47-year-old employee of a hospital and health care union has been
upheld by the New York State Division of Human Rights in her complaint that she was
unjustly dismissed from her position because she was “not physically capable of resuming
her duties” following an injury resulting from an automobile accident.
Shirlee Evans, of New York
City, a $224 per week union field
organizer from January 1972 un-
til May 1975, alleged in her
complaint that the union dis-
criminated against her employ-
ment because of her disability.
She cited the period beginning
March 6, 1974, when she suffer-
ed a spinal injury which hospi-
talized her for two weeks. Four
months after, she suffered a re-
currence of the injury, and it
was not until May 20, 1975 that
she was “ready, willing and able
to go to work.”
Reporting to the union office,
she was allegedly told by the ex-
ecutive vice-president that, in his
opinion, she was not physically
capable of resuming her duties
as an organizer because she was
using a cane.
The union official backed up
his decision not to reinstate her
‘without consulting a physician,”
according to Ms. Evans, She then
filed a complaint against the
union and the executive vice-
president, charging them with
violating the New York State Hu-
man Rights Law
After investigation, the Divi-
sion of Human Rights determ-
ined that it had jurisdiction in
the complaint and that probable
cause existed to believe that the
respondents had engaged in an
unlawful discriminatory practice
The matter was thereupon re-
ferred to a Public Hearing
During the course of the hear-
ing, it was ruled that there was
insufficient evidence to establish
that the union officer had dis-
criminated against the complain-
ant, “Since any action he took
was in his representative capa-
city and not individually.” The
complaint against him was dis-
missed.
However, based on the evid-
ence, the union was found to
have discriminated against Ms.
Evans because of her disability
On Jan. 20, the union was ord-
ered by Werner H. Kramarsky,
State Commissioner of Human
Rights to take the following af-
firmative steps

Well, they found good homes,
and helped the city at the same
time.
Last week, six lucky New
York State residents, three from
New York City, became the proud
owners of ex-Police Department
horses. A total of 59 competitors
bid for them.
‘The top bidder, Peter Askin of
Manhattan, came away with two
horses. Mr, Askin, who bid $610
for nine-year-old Breen and $660
for 16-year-old Muers, said
will keep the horses on his

A new State Department of Mental Health office with a staff
of 150 will be set up in the New York City area to coordinate
about $1.5 million and will supervise the
between 500 and 1,000 persons annually, Thomas A. Coughlin, DMH
deputy commissioner for mental retardation, developed the idea
of the New York City office.
‘The State Assembly's Labor Committee has approved two bills
raising the state minimum wage to $3 and $4 an hour respectively.
A. 15, sponsored by Committee Chairman Seymour Posner (D-Bronx),
raises the wage to $3; A. 3715, introduced by Assemblyman Angelo
Del Toro (D-Manhattan), mandates a $4 minimum. Both will go
to the Ways and Means Committee for further study before in-
troduction to the Assembly as a whole. The two bills eliminate any
exemptions, such as those for agriculture workers, from the mini-
mum wage law; both specify payment of a minimum daily wage,
& new concept in state law. Under this provision, employees must
pay at least four hours minimum wage each day to workers required
to report for duty, whether or not the employee is actually assigned
work. Mr. Posner pointed out that the present minimum wage “pro-
vides a full-time worker with $5,200 a year. That’s about $300 below
the poverty level for a family of four. The minimum wage is sup-
posed to end poverty, not give it legal legitimacy.”
Donald Wadsworth, 61, of Wells, a lumber company owner and
Town of Hope supervisor, has been named by Gov. Hugh L. Carey
as a member of the Adirondack Park Agency. He succeeds Francis
B. Trudeau, of Saranac Lake, who resigned, The post pays $1 day
while on official business up to a maximum of $5,000 a year.
New York City officials said they hope to lease the now-vacant
North Brother Island in the East River for a commercial and in-
dustrial development intended to generate about 1,000 jobs. The 20-
acre island was last used by the Department of Hospitals but has
not been occupied for the past decade. There are 15 buildings there.
‘Suggestions put forth in the past for using the island have in-
cluded making it a site for gambling casinos, building a private
medical facility and selling {t to a public utility.

Low-Price Insurance SUNY Classified Workers Told
Available During Feb. 10-Month Appointments Illegal
ALBANY—Enroliment in a special, low-cost group life
insurance plan, which does not, in most cases, require a
medical examination, is available during the month of Feb-
ruary to state employees and employees of local governments,
where the plan is already in
force, who are members of the
Civil Service Employees Assn. or
who apply for membership when
they apply for insurance.
Applications, with signed au-
thorization to have premiums
deducted from salary, should be
sent to the Insurance Depart-
ment, CSEA, 33 Elk St., Albany,
N. Y. 12207, prior to Feb. 29,
1976.
Applications and literature ex-
plaining the group life insurance
plan may be obtained from local
CSEA chapter representatives or
from the union headquarters at
33 Elk St.
CSEA members under 50 years
of age, who have not been pre-
viously rejected for this insur-
ance on the basis of a medical
examination, are eligible for the
plan without & medical examina-
tion.
Members over 50 must take a
medical examination at the ex-
pense of the insurance company.
‘The cost of the insurance is
10 cents bi-weekly per $1,000
worth of coverage for members
29 years or younger. Older mem-
bers may obtain this insurance
at proportionate rates, Members
pay their insurance premiums
through the automatic payroll
deduction plan.
Final Fringe
Once upon a time there
was a worker who never
joined his union. All his life
he took the benefits won
him by the union, but refused
to join.
‘Then, on his death bed he told
his wife: “Please do something
for me. I want union members to
be my pallbearers.”
“But you never belonged to the
union,” his wife reminded him.
“Why do you want union mem-
bers to be your pallbearers?”
“Dear,” he replied, “they've
carried me this far, they might
as well carry me the rest of the

NEW CITY—The Rockland
County unit, Civil Service
Employees Assn., will hold a
meeting concerning the staté
of their negotiations on Wed-
nesday, Feb. 18 at 7:30 p.m. at
Jon Michael's (formerly Ripples
of Rockland), on Phillips Hill
Road, New City.
CSEA colective bargaining spe-
cialist Phil Miller said it is urg-
ent that every member of the
1,700-member unit attend the
meeting. The nine-member nego-
tating team for the unit will be
there along with Mr. Miller to
explain the situation in the con-
tract talks and to answer all
questions.
“It is vital that every CSEA
member attend, in order to en-
sure total participation in the
decisions that are to be made
regarding future courses of ac-
tion,” Mr. Miller said.
The unit has been working
without a contract since Jan. 1,
1976. Negotiations with the coun-
ty began on July 14, 1975 and
hahve already gone through the
impasse stage. The first fact-
finding session has been set for
Feb. 23.
Mr, Miller also revealed that
the union plans to file an im-
Proper practice charge against
the county in the near future,
charging the county with failure
to bargain in good faith.

10-month obligation, but this is
clearly in violation of all four
CSEA contracts with the state.”
‘The union plans to file a class-
action grievance on behalf of ap-
proximately 15,000 persons it rep-
resents in the classified service
of all campuses of the state uni-
vebsity system, charging the ad-
ministration violated its con-
tracts.
In addition, CSEA legal staff
is investigating the possibility of
fillng an improper practice charge
against the state for unilaterally
changing terms and conditions of
employment in violation of Sec.
209-a. 1 (d) of the Civil Service
Law.
Benefits that could be elimin-
ated or substantially reduced by
the institution of the 10-month
appointment include: the ordin-
ary death benefit; the survivors
death benefit; health and dental
insurance; seniority for examin-
ation and layoff purposes, vesting
rights and many more, according
to Mr. Burch.
“The attempt to institute the
10-month appointment ts really
an inisdious plot to undermine
the classified service in New York
State,” he said. “It would allow
SUNY to predetermine which 10
percent of the work force they
want to release for two months@
out of each calendar year. And
this type of arrangement, once
established, would quickly spread
to other state agencies and de-
partments.”
He added that CSEA is urging
its SUNY chapter members and
al other classified employees not
to discuss any alternative calen-
dar year with campus officials.
“We wish to inform all such em-
ployees that SUNY officials have
no authority to make 10-month @
appointments of full-time classi-
fied workers, nor do they have
any authority to even discuss
such appointments with workers
we represent,” he said.
“CSEA has a statewide SUNY
committee which is prepared to
discuss calendar changes when
SUNY approaches us in the prop-
er labor-management context as
detailed in our contracts. But
the SUNY administration has no@
right to unilaterally make 10-
month appointments, as it has
been trying to do.”
Mr. Burch said that CSEA was
taking it upon itself to inform
the employees of these facts be-
cause the SUNY administration
refused to do so when asked by
Classified employees include

competitive, labor and exempt @
categories, They are found in all

He concluded, “In other words,
the sheriff now has two options
regarding this position: either
appoint Ms. Weeks or leave it
vacant.”
Despite the clarity of the jus-
tice’s ruling, the Suffolk County
sheriff provisionally appointed
someone other than Ms. Weeks

CIVIL SERVICE LEADER, Tuesday, February 10, 1976
CONGRATULATIONS — Solomon Bendet, left, president of
CSEA New York City Region, and statewide CSEA president Ted
Wenzl exchange congratulations on vietory in the PS&T represen-
tation challenge as Richard Cleary, president of Syracuse Region,
looks on happily.
PEF Poops Out
In Round Two
(Continued from Page 1)
heavily—and tellingly—at the
danger of PS&T aides voting for
proposed union—PEF—that
had no known officers, no head-
quarters, no staff, and no pro-
gram, CSEA’s long and success-
ful track record in all areas of
representing public employees was
ilustrated heavily through the
news media, mass meetings and
individual contact.
“Shock ‘Troops Score”
“In addition,” said Dr. Wenal,
“our local chapter officers and
members proved to be the best
shock troops in the business.
They carried the battle im the
grass roots, got out the larger
vote, and did it relentlessly. It
was typical of CSEA's ability to
produce great team effort.”
The CSEA leader expressed his
hope that the continuing success
of the organization in beating
back consistent attempts by out-
side groups of organized labor to

subsidize government.” Last year,
Sen. Owen H, Johnson of Long
Island sald that he voted for a
6 percent wage increase for
state workers (it was later de-
feated) and would vote for a
raise this year if given the op-
portunity
PSA&T Victory Helps
With the PS&T victory the
CSEA — with its quarter-million
membership still intact — has
dashed any secret hopes that its
vast majority in State employ-
ment representation would be
broken. A new union on the
scene, representing those 40,000
workers in the PS&T unit, could
have provided the stage for “di-
vide and conquer" tactics on the
part of State negotiators.
As things stand now, the Carey
Administration still faces the
same strong union— the Civil
Service Employees Assn. —and
CSEA officials fee] that the feet-
dragging might stop now.

“Once again, State workers
have a shown everybody con-
cerned that they want the kind
of unionism created by CSEA. I

Any hopes held by the State
Administration that a new union
on the labor scene could create
divisiveness and thus make it
easier to dismiss State worker de-
mands are now dashed, accord-
ing to Dr. Wenz).
“They (the State) must stop

he added.

cision.
“Since there are no grounds
for an appeal, there should be
no further delay, We'll have our
negotiators at the bargaining
table just as soon as we can get
through the state's red tape,
probably by this weekend,” Mr.
Ryan said.
He noted also that although
the PS&T Unit was unable to
begin negotiations until the
question of who had bargaining
rights and the actual certifica-
tion was entered into the record
by the State Public Employment
Relations Board, CSEA had es-
tablished its negotiating team
for the unit, it had met numer-
ous times and drawn up a final
program of demands to present
to the state.
There had been much concern
by CSEA officials and members
over the long delay in the start
of PS&T bargaining. brought
about when neither union won
a clear majority in the original
election last Dec. 5. CSEA admits
that, as a result, time is now
short and emphasizes that ne-
gotiations, once started, “will
have to move ahead intensively,
in a no-nonsense manner.”
Contract Ends March 31
The union's present three-year
PS&T contract expires March
31, as do its pacts for the other
three state worker groups it
represents —the Administrative,
Operational and Institutional
Services Units. Negotiations for
these three groups began fairly
on schedule last November, con-
tinuing intermittently through
December and January.
While the Adm nistration and
Operational talks are still in
progress, the Institutional Unit
broke off negotiations and de-
clared an impasse on Jan. 30.
The break came, according to
CSEA, when the state consistent-
ly refused to discuss any im-
proved benefits, insisting instead
that CSEA consider various state
proposals to actually reduce ex-
isting benefits.
Reductions Hit
James Moore, chairman of
CSEA’s Institutional Unit nego-
tiating team, said these proposed
reductions include the loss of
two days personal leave; being
‘docked" for the first day of
sick leave; the loss of 20 days
from the maximum to be paid
in cash for accruals upon retire-
ment ot separation, and other
cutbacks in present benefits.
Calling the state's position “ri-

institutional bargainers declared
an impasse and, at Leader press-
time, were meeting with the
state to arrange for the inter-
vention of a mutually acceptable
mediator to enter the dispute
CSEA Spikes An Attempt
To Bypass Civil Service
Law By Onondaga County
SYRACUSE—The Onondaga County Employees unit of
the Civil Service Employees Assn. won a precedent-setting
decision which holds that an employer cannot bypass State
Civil Service Law by using a local work rule to impose a fine.
‘The Onondaga County Metro-
politan Water Board had with-
held two hours’ pay from Onon-
daga County CSEA unit president
Anthony Sette on the grounds
that he had violated a local work
Tule in dailing to “punch out” at
the end of a work shift. Mr.
Sette is a water plant operator
for the county.
Mr. Sette was found not guilty
of incompetence or misconduct
at a hearing pursuant to Section
15 of the Civil Service Law. How-
ever, the hearing officer, who is
also an attorney for the county,
held that the hearing was not
required and that the fine could
be imposed as though the hear-
ing had never taken place.
CSEA immediately appealed the
decision and, late last month,
Justice Stewar F. Hancock Jr., of
the State Supreme Court found
that Section 75 of the Civil
Service Law, “adopted for the
protection of public employees,
should not be so easily evaded.”
He ordered the county to re-
fund Mr, Sette's pay.
CSEA field representative Ron
Smith said recently that the
county may still appeal the
CSEA victory. He added, however,
that he expects the higher courts
to uphold the decision of Jus-
tice Hancock.
Mr. Sette said the county has
not yet refunded his money. He
reported that there are 10 other
CSEA members who are in the
same position as he, having been
fined illegally by the county. All
are awaiting the return of thelr
money on the basis of the
Hancock decision.
CSEA regional attorney Earl
P. Boyle commented that the
CSEA victory set a precedent.
“It holds that an employer can-
not cricumvent a Section 75 hear-
ing by promulgating a local work
rulew hich includes automatic
Penalties in the nature of a fine
without a Section 75 hearing.”
Justice Hancock, in agreeing
with the union, wrote that Sec-
tion 75 of the State Civil Service
Law prohibits “any disciplinary
penalty except for incompetency
or misconduct shown after @
hearing upon stated charges pur-
suant to Section 75.” He added,
“A fine or deduction from wages
is a ‘disciplinary penalty’ requir-
ing @ hearing.”
‘There are approximately 350
members in the Onondaga Coun-
ty Employees unit. Mr. Sette has
been president for three years.

A controversial resolution
