in a letter from CSEA President Joseph F.
Feily.

The Association told the Governor that:
“In view of the fact that we represent
more than 100,000 State employees, that
| we negotiate exclusively with the admin-

istration on behalf of these employees, and

agent for all State employees.”

The Association said designation of it
as exclusive bargaining agent would be
consistent with the Governor's “firm sup-

Your Public

Relations

By LEO J. MARGOLIN

Mr. Margolin is Professor

IQ

of Business Administration at

the Borough of Manhattan Community College and Adjunct
Professor of Public Administration in New York University’s
Graduate School of Public Administration,

A Quality, King-Sized Job

GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENTS are king-size these days,
which makes public relations communications with one of
their most critical public—their civil service staff—a king-

size job.

ONE OF THE best efforts in
this area we have seen in many
a year is the work of the public
reations professionals in the State
of New York's Department of
Labor, In fact, it is as excellent
as anything produced by some of
the nation’s industrial giants in
the billion-dollar class.

“YOU AND YOUR JOB—With
Your Department” is a beautifully
penned, designed and written 70-
page loose-leaf book, which tells
precisely what every civil servant
in the State's Department of
Labor should know about his or
her job.

THERE ARE MANY, many
things we like about this splendid
presentation. First, it is public
relations-oriented—meaning that
Commissioner Martin P. Cather-
wood, as a highly intelligent ex-
ecutive, is aware that his de-
partment is effective only when tt
enjoys good public relations, par-

|

ticularly with ite more than 11,-

For either departure date write |9¢9 employees.

| SECOND, WE LIKE the idea
|tiat employees in the State Labor
Department are being told pre-
csely what their Department
dues. This may sound like very
elementary spoon-feeding of the
employees. On the contrary, our
knowledgeable readers can cite
scores of cases in some govern-
ment agencies, where even after
years of service, the employees
hed only the vaguest of ideas
of what their agency actually did.

WE ARE NOT saying that em-
ployees of The State Labor De-
partment are ignorant of their
Department's functions. As the
handbook itself accurately reports,
the Department “is a major and
extremely diversified arm of the
State Government.” After read-
ing the Department's story within
the first few of 70 pages, the civil
servants in the agency know pre-
cisely what their very complex
Department does.

CSEA Makes Sharp Protest
On Handling Of New State
Narcotics Officer Exam

ALBANY — A recent open-competitive examination for
the newly-established State title of narcotic correction of-
ficer continues to draw fire from the Civil Service Employees
Assn. despite an attempt by the State Civil Service depart-
ment to answer CSEA’s original | —

Protest.

‘The State's reply, which de-
tailed the background and cir-
cumstances surrounding the ex-
amination for the new positions in
mid-January, was referred to by a
CSEA spokesman as “an explana-
tion, perhaps, but hardly a justi-
fication.”

Earlier, at the behest of an
aroused membership, CSEA's as-
soclate counsel, Harry W. Albright,
Jr, had questioned the exam-
{ration in this sharply-worded
telepgram to Stanley Kollin, the
Civil Service Department's coor-
dinator of recruitment and exam-
nations:

“We vigorously protest the man-
ner in which an examination was
held in the New York City area
without adequate advertising or
s#anouncement for the newly es-

tablished Grade 12 position of nar- |

cotic correction officer. This fail-
ure has deprived a number of
highly qualified State employees
from competing
tin... This telegram is to con-
slitute a formal request on be-
half of our employees that the
examination which had taken
‘place’ be nullified and that a
new examination be given with
@ppropriate and wide-spread an-
nouncement,” Albright said.
Pleads Veadline

Kollin’s reply attributed the ac-
celeration of the normal time-
table in this instance to a need to
meet the State's April 1 deadline
foi the opening of the first fa-
city of the Narcotic Addiction
Control Commission in New York
City.

in five New York City papers be-
fore the schedule date (of Jan-
vary 14). It was treated as a spe-
cial recruitment effort in New

like to read to you the experience

populous titles in State service, a
Grade 6 Psychiatric Attendant in
his fifth year of employment with
the State. The 8 per cent adjust-
ment for this employee represent-
ed a /gross annual increase of
$404.24. His net increase, however,
was signficantly lower.

“This employee's total payroll

mately 22 per cent. When applied
to his $404 gross increase, this

much more which, because of

pass by now and submit detailed
recommendations to you later.
New Methods

“There is one thing, however, I
| would like to note briefly at this
time. Perhaps this might not be
considered under the specific jur-

long range, it does have definite
fiscal implications. It is the diffl-
culty faced by the Civil Service
Employees Assn. in negotiating for
State employee benefits in the ab-
sence of any specific procedures
either In the law or through ex-
ecutive order. Traditionally, fol-
lowing adoption by our delegates
of the coming year’s program, we

employer, in this case the Budget
Division and the Governor, we are,
in effect, “locked in” and must
come directly to you for relief.
My point is, gentlemen, that if
the State would adopt legislation
establishing formal public em-
ployee-employer relations pro-
cedures, such as has been recom-
mended from almost every source
interested in public employment
in this State, we would not be in
the situation we are in today.
Therefore, we would urge that,
while considering the specific
proposals we are asking you to
endorse and support, you also give
serious consideration to a work-
able plan that would establish the
employee - employer procedures
which I speak of and would re-
place the unworkable, unrealistic
Condon-Wadlin Law that we now
have which punishes employees
for walking off their jobs, but pro-
vides absolutely no remedies for
the problems which cause them
to take such drastic action.

Second Class Citizens

AST week, State Attorney General Louis Lefkowitz an-
nounced that he would ask an addition to the State
Constitution that would cause public employees to be fired
from their jobs if they refused to waive immunity when
called before a grand jury to testify concerning his official
duties.

Out in California, Governor Ronald Reagan asked state
employees there to work for nothing on Lincoln's and Wash-
ington’s birthdays.

Federal employees are forbidden by law to engage in
political activity and this restriction abounds tn many levels
in government,

Several government agencies require an employee seek-
ing promotion to declare whether or not he had ever been
indicted by a grand jury. Even though found not guilty, the
affected employee is a victim of the human failings of many
an appointment officer who feels that an indictment is tan-
tamount to guilt.

Public employees cannot strike—according to law—and
they have to settle for what 1s offered in negotiations in
most cases.

No other sector of employment in America suffers the
restrictions, the rebuffs and the denial of some basic consti-
tutional and working rights as do our nation’s civil servants.
Yet, in an era of inflation and tight budgets they are told
there is no money for them in terms of keeping on a financial
par with their fellow citizens in private industry, who suffer
none of the above restrictions in life and in work.

This is the real definition of second class citizenship, It’s
eradication should be the goal of every public employee in
America.

Welcome, Mr. Hoberman

E are delighted to see that Mayor John Lindsay has

now appointed Solomon Hoberman as the City’s Per-

sonnel Director and Chairman of the City Civil Service Com-

mission, Mr. Hoberman has served as acting director for 14

months and has given good evidence of his capabilities in

the area of personnel techniques and the understanding of
human needs.

‘This newspaper has long appreciated Mr, Hoberman’s
Willingness to experiment with new approaches to both re-
cruitment for City jobs and in personne) practices. Not all
of them have been successful, but he has had the profes-
sional maturity to abandon those new devices when they
have proved unworkable or undesirable. It was a bold move
on the part of the new personnel director to drop questions
on certain background incidents of new job applicants, In
80 doing, he has given persons who made past mistakes an
opportunity for rehabilitation through employment and the
City has not suffered from the results, despite certain cries
of outrage and alarm when the practice was first announced,

Editor, The Leader

J. Earl Kelly, the Director of
Classification and Compensation
of the Department of Civil Ser-
vice, should be commended, rather
than abused as he so often is, for
his decision of Dec. 14, 1966 in
the matter of the application of
all clerical employees for realloca-
tion to higher salary grades. It's
too bad that he couldn't agree
with the request for increases,
which would have made 28,000
employees happy, but at least he
explained, which doesn’t always
happen,

It appears that his reply is not
easy to contradict. It is hoped
that he will not retract his state-
ments in the last sentence of his
penultimate paragraph, which
bears repeating “The nature of
the work itself, the surroundings
in which {t is performed, and the
availability or lack of promotional
opportunities are but a few of
many considerations which enter
into the pay setting process.”

Let's consider these three points
40 far as they affect the clerical
personnel in institutions, as op-
posed to the same titles in Albany,
New York, or other large cities.

First, the nature of the work:
Even if everything else were equal,
Institution clerical employees
would merit an increase because
of the differential tn working
hours. Institution clerical staff
work 40 hours per week for the
same pay others receive for 3749
hours. That means about 125
hours per year. You figure it out.
Certainly a one-grade increase
would barely, if at all, cover that
difference,

Second, the surroundings in
which it is performed: In most
| elty offices it 1s possible to get to
‘and from work on public trans-
| portation. Most institutions are
located well out of the “high rent
districts,” not merely in the sub-
urbs, but often in remote rural
areas requiring the expensive use
of passenger cars for long dis-
tances over secondary roads and
sometimes dirt roads. In winter,
when there's snow on these lonely
roads, it can be quite hazardous
too, as well as uncomfortable.

Also, considering surroundings,
give some thought to the contacts,
in institutions, with mentally or
physically ill, delinquents or crim-
inals as compared with the normal
persons of the general public.

Finally, and this is almost as
important to men as it is to
women, offices in cities often af-
| ford an employee an opportunity
to do some shopping either during
lunchtime or before starting for
home. Institution employees,
| working in “the sticks” must make
| Special trips for shopping, and
| even to the bank to cash their pay
checks,

‘Third, the lack of promotional
opportunities; Departmental em-
ployees can compete in tnter-de-
partmental promotion examina-
tions, and, if successful, change
their location of work without re-
quiring ® change of residence.

Civil Service

Law & You
By WILLIAM GOFFEN

(Mr, Goffen, a member of the New York Bar, teaches law at the
College of the City of New York, is the author of many books and
articles and co-authored “New York Criminal Law.”)

Reassignment Of Detectives

Detectives are generally reassignable to their regular
rank and grade, but such reassignment may not be arbi-
trarily exercised. A typical statute expressing this concept
is Section 199-cc of the Village Law providing in pertinent
part:

The chief of police may, from time to time, detail to

detective duty as many members of the force as he

may deem necessary to make the service efficient, and
he may at any time revoke such detail.

As the Legislature has expressly noted, assignment and
revocation of detective duty shall be in the interest of ef-
ficient service. Certainly, revocation of a detective detail
may not be by reason of supervisory pique unrelated to serv-
ice efficiency. In short, the administrative official many not
exceed the grant of authority given him by the Legislature.

The issue whether the chief of police of the Village of
Mamaroneck exceeded his statutory authority in assigning
two detectives back to patroling a beat, was squarely pre-
sented in the case of Francis Paonessa and Charles Cavanagh
(New York Law Journal, February 9, 1967, page 19). Justice
George M. Fanelli dismissed the petition, but his opinion was
based upon the strange conclusion that “The papers present
nothing more than an exercise of discretion on the part of
respondent chief of police in the direction which he con-
sidered best administratively for the efficiency of the detec-
tive bureau.”

The opinion did not mention the petitioners’ conten-
tion that the police chief told each of them that he was
being reassigned to the uniformed forces because of the

\chief’s displeasure with them for having made a certain in-

vestigation, The investigation was of two of the petitioners’
fellow policemen for apparent violation of Rule and Regula-
tion 10 of the Mamaroneck Police Department, providing:

No member of the Force shall communicate, except to
such persons as directed by a superior officer, any in-
formation respecting orders he may have received or
any regulation that may be made for the government of
the department. All official business of the department
shall be treated as confidential; it shall not be imparted
to anyone, except to those for whom it is intended or as
directed by the Chief, or under due process of law.

The officers investigated submitted sworn statements
to help Dr. William A. Barrett, a police surgeon, on a motion
to suppress evidence connecting him with an abortion. They
stated they were told by then Detective Paonessa that the
State Police had tapped the physician's wires and obtained
information concerning his abortion activities from his
then estranged wife,

The Chief's answer to the petition denied displeasure
with the investigation and, indeed, asserted that the re-
assignment “is not, and should not be construed to be, a
reflection upon the integrity or ability of the petitioners.”
As a matter of fact, the record of the petitioners was out-
standing throughout their many years of service.

Obviously attempting to bring himself within the leg-
islative limitation on assignment of detectives, the Chief
asserted that “the reassignment of the petitioners was made
solely in the interest of efficiency and was not made for
any other reason, as claimed in the petition,”

If not for the positive assertions of the petitioners that
the Chief had indeed reassigned them because they did
their duty in conducting a legitimate investigation, it would
be easier to understand Judge Funelli’s holding that there
was nothing in the pleadings disputing the Chief's assertion
that he was acting in the interest of efficiency. The Chief's
contention 1s particularly hard to accept in view of his own
concession as to the petitioners’ integrity and ability, Cer-
tainly, the assignment of two relatively inexperienced pat-
rolmen to take over the duties of knowledgeable and com-
petent detectives of proven ability and integrity does not
appear to be in the interests of efficiency.

It seems that an issue was raised as to whether the re-
vocation of the detective detail was in the interests of effi-
ciency or to punish the petitioners without a hearing on
charges as guaranteed by the Civil Service Law. Under the
circumstances, it is submitted that the jury trial demanded
by the petitioners of issues raised by the pleadings should

have been granted,

Q. Must I be hospitalized in
order to receive reimburse-

doctor calls under my
Statewide Plan?

A.'No. Such calls are covered

under Part III (Major
Medica!) of the Statewide
Plan, You need not be hospi-
talized in order to receive
Major Medical benefits, but
the co-insurance and deducti-
ble factors do apply.

Q. Please tell me if eye exam-
inations and eye glasses
are covered under my
Statewide Plan?

A. No. Neither eye glasses nor

eye examinations are con-
sidered covered medical ex-
penses under the Statewide
Plan,

Q. I am covered by both the
Statewide Plan and Medi-
care, Please tell me how
many days of fully paid
hospital care I am covered
for if I have to go to the
hospital?

A. You are covered for 120|

days of in-hospital care |
except for any extra charges |
for a private room from the
90th to the 120th day. Medi-
care covers the first 90 days
and your Statewide Plan will
cover that part of your ex-
Penses not covered by Medi-
care; that is, the first $40
of your hospital bill plus the
$10 a day you are expected
to pay for the 61st thru the
90th day. You are then cover-
ed for an additional 30 days
of fully paid care in a semi-
private room under your
Statewide Plan, Let me say,
however that this is not the
total in benefits you enjoy
under the Statewide Plan. If
you should have to stay in
the hospital beyond 120 days,
you would have benefits un-
der the Major Medical por-
tion of your Statewide Plan,
with deductible and co-insur-
ance applying.

IRON CURTAIN FROM EXAM PROCESS!

The New York City Personnel Department under the direc-
tion of Personnel Director Solomon Hoberman ignited one of
the sharpest controversies in the history of the merit system
when it scrapped a 40-year-old policy of releasing question
booklets to competitors in civil service exams. Aligned against
Mr, Hoberman and the so-called experts in the personnel field
are the hundreds of thousands of city civil service empl
wro int the new iron curtain which surrounds theexamination
process.

NEW PROCEDURES DESCRIBED

The new procedure “works” this way: candidates
may make a record in the exam room of their answers
but cannot take out the question booklet. Those com-
peting in a promotion test must wait two weeks before
the “propose: rs are released for publication. If
the test wa: ‘day, they must wait 16 days.
After publication of the answers, they have 14 days to
mail a request for an appointment to protest the
answers,

They then will be notified of the tment date,
when they must appear personally, They may not bring
anyone with them, They may bring along, however, text-
books and other materials, The Personnel Department,
as a “guide,” advises in advance the general subject
matter of the questions. For example, Question N
through 25 involve supervision, 26 through 35, reading
itty, tatio) .

he candidate is given the same length of time as was
allowed in the test to review the questions and prepare pro-
tests, if he wishes to submit them at that time. If he desires,

MAKES MOCKERY OF APPEAL

Under the new procedures this is impossible. Without the
exam booklet cendidates cannot remember the precise ques-
tions and therefore cannot prepare properly for the review
appointment. Knowning the general subject matter is of little
help. Nor is it much consolation that source materials can be
brought with them. Today's exams are too difficult and compre-
hensive to expect that answers will be found in only a few
books, Without the ability to copy questions or to make notes
on them, the opportunity to prepare protests at home or else-

is of little help. Tae are some of the disabilities which
tes face in evaluating answers, the validity of which

In view of this pressing problem which affects the right of every civil service employee,
State Senator Jay Golden will introduce in the State Legislature, at the request of the Uni-
formed Fire Officers’ Assn., a bill which will prohibit the Department of Personnel from with-
holding test booklets of candidates in promotion examinations. We urge all public employees
to contact their legislators in support of this bill,

Uniformed Fire Officers’ Association

Local 854, 1.A.F.F., AFL-CIO
217 Broadway
New York, N.Y. 10007

As a result of the secrecy order, the protest procedures
under which the validity of ‘off jal answers are open to chal.
lenge abound in confusion and inequities, Candidates in all
future testr—open competitive and promotion—will face the
same obstacles as those in tests held since adoption of the
policy unless a united effort by all civil service unions persuades
the Lindsay administration that a return to the “full disclosure”
policy is necessary and desirable,

additional time, he may have an additional equal period.
After reviewing the questions, he may elect to prepare his
protests elsewhere but he may not take with him any of the
questions or any data relating to them! Protests prepared else-
where may be mailed to the Department. Candidates are not
ir original question booklets or their answer papers
for review. They receive a fresh question booklet, malta it
necessary for them to bring their answers with them,

Most city exams, particularly those for promotion in the
formed forces, present alternate answers which draw fine
lines of distinction, the significance of which can be recognized
only by a close reading of the question. One word may be
the key to the correct answer. To intelligently submit a protest,
a candidate must have the precise wording of the question
before him and full freedom to consult source materials to
determine the correct answer.

He should be free to consult experts in the field who
can guide him in determining which answers to protest
and in preparing evidence to support his position,

may mean the difference between advancement and stagnation,
If the secrecy orders were designed to prevent effective
protest, it has accomplished its goal. In refusing to release
question booklets, the Personnel Department also has accom-
plished another goal: it has ensnaried itself in so much
tape and created such confusion that some of its strongest
backers, including some knowledgeable close associates, are
ready to do battle!
, In place of an efficient system for protests it has
substituted a time-consuming, inefficient, inequitable
procedure which makes a mockery of the right of appeal!

CIVIL: SERVICE LEADER

‘Sno Fooling - 353

T was early Tuesday morning, February 7, at the

220 Church Street offices of the City Department
of Personnel. Outside the windows of the Recruitment
Division, facing Worth St,, the world was an angry bliz-
zard of wind-whipped sheets of plummeting snow—snow
that was to strike down with nfonontononus and dreary
regularity until 6 p.m., leaving the city cloaked in over
a foot of the beautiful white stuff.

City civil service walk-in examinations were scheduled
that day at 9 a.m. and 1 p.m. for case worker I. Grade
schools, high schools, and colleges in the city were closed.
Drifts that already were dangerously high and slick sur-
faces made travel into the city over the major roadways
impossible or extremely hazardous. The gusts were fierce.
It was a good day to stay home.

Examiners set to administer the case worker exams
didn't expect much business. The exams had not been
called off in the apparently forelorn hope that at least a
handful of candidates would appear and because the De-
partment of Welfare badly needs case workers

So the examiners and monitors placed application forms
and test booklets on long rows of desks in the exam room
—desks that undoubtedly would remain vacant. And as
nine o'clock approached the candidates began to trickle
in, cherry red in the face, walking snowmen, breathing
cold smoke. The trickle became a flow and amazingly,
by nine, all 147 seats in the test room were filled. Still
they came, and a special test was sandwiched in two hours
later to accommodate 40 more,

What, on a day such as this brought them out?

Mrs. Landelina Perez, graduate of the University of
Havana and one of over 50 Cuban expatriates who took
the test that day, explained that she is “grateful to this
country for all it has done for Cubans. I want to help

6 Competitive,

Tuesday, February 21, 1967

Brave Blizzard To

people just like I have been helped.” Mrs. Perez's ordeal
to reach the test site included a 25-minute walk in the
driving snow from her Port Chester home to the train
station, a ride into Grand Central, and a cab ride to Worth
St.

A young woman who declined to give her name because
she didn't want her present employer—an insurance com-
pany where she works as a rater—to know that she is
looking elsewhere, explained that she wants a job which
will be more fulfilling. “I'm tired of working with num-
bers. I want to do something for people.”

A man, who also preferred to remain nameless, ex-
plained that he had taken the tests over a year ago, but
was rejected because at five-feet-eight and 235 pounds
he had been considered far too overweight. “I'm down
to 205 now. Rock solid,” he said, poking a finger into
his mid-section, “It's miserable out, but I'm here. How
hearty can you get?”

Al DeLia, an intense-looking 23-year-old Fordham
graduate, who lives in the Bronx, with his wife and 2-
month-old daughter, wants to settle down to something
that will provide him with a steady living and give a
meaningful base to his life. “I've been a bookkeeper, I've
done a bit of commercial writing, I've played base guitar
in a band, and I've also done modeling. None of it's been
very steady.

Ruth Herman, a recent Queens College graduate from
Flushing, explained behind a shy, charming smile that
she wanted to open her life to mew experiences. “I want
to meet new people, different people. I want to help
people, and I want experience for growth.”

Another 166 showed up for the 1 p.m, test. Those
among the overflow were seated at hastily set up desks

Take Caseworker Test

in corners and ante-rooms, Altogether, 353 case worker
candidates were tested that day—a somewhat better-than-
normal crowd on an incalculably worse-than-normal day.

The next walk-in tests for case worker I will be held
on Tuesday, Feb. 28 at 9 a.m. and 1 p.m., at the mez-
zanine floor at 40 Worth St., Manhattan. The only re-
quirement is a baccalaureate degree with any major from
an accredited four-year university or college, Non-citizens
who meet this qualification are also eligible provided they
have filed a declaration of intent to become a citizen.

The starting salary for case worker I is at the rate of
$5,750 a year, with an increase to $6,100 after six months.
After one year those in the position of case worker I are
automatically promoted to case worker II, which has an
annual salary range of $6,400 to $8,200. These salaries
are currently under negotiations between City management
and the Social Service Employees’ Union which represents
the employees

Fringe benefits include four weeks of paid annual
vacation, free basic medical insurance, paid holidays, 12
sick leave days a year cumulative to 180 days, member-
ship in a generous retirement plan and, for those who
have been on staff two years, the opportunity for one of
about 200 graduate scholarships issued yearly. Those who
receive scholarships attend graduate school full time for
two years for a Masters in Social Work. Full tuition is
paid, and in addition full salary as a case worker is con-
tinued.

Further information on careers as a New York City
Department of Welfare case worker may be obtained by
writing or phoning the New York City Department of
Personnel, Recruitment Division, Room M-4, 220 Worth
St, New York, New York 10013 or by telephoning 566-

"A message to employees of the City of New York

~The Story of Timothy T
or
How Fast Could You Raise $7,140.65?

When Timothy T chose his health
plan from the three offered to
City employees, he and his fam-
ily were all feeling fine.

Then, within one ten-week
period, his wife and two children
were all hospitalized with unre-
lated serious illnesses.

Their bills came to $7,140.65,
His health plan paid $6,051.30—
or about 859% —of these costs. If
he had chosen either of the other
two plans, the maximum payment
would have been on 90—
less than 38% of his al costs,

He undoubtedly had to go into
his savings for $1, Rough
enough. But a financial life-saver

compared to the $4,496.75—most
of which he would have had to
borrow someplace—to make up
for either of the other two plans’
lack of coverage. Fortunately,
Timothy T had chosen well, He
had voted the BLUE SHIELD—
BLUE CROSS—METROPOLI-
TAN LIFE ticket.

He chose the only plan that
offers any and all of these Major
Medicaland other benefitsto New
York City employees:

1. Home and office visits—no
specific limit,

2. Prescription drugs, medi-
cines, appliances,

8. Anesthesia,

BLUE CROSS

Avsoclated Hospital Service of New York

4. Private duty nursing care.

5. Psychiatric treatment in
doctor's office.

6. Freedom to select the doc-
tor you want,

Some of these considerations
undoubtedly influenced Timothy
T’s original selection,

Today he has another reason to
stick with the plan he chose so
wisely. A $6,051.80 reason.

Few illnesses, of course, involve
such staggering figures. You
could be one of the lucky ones,
with a health bill of only $10 or
$15 next year, But big ones like
Timothy's do come up.

And it could happen to you,

Reduce the risk of back-break-
ing health costs—and the worries
that accompany financial disabil-

Pension System Revision

(Continued from Page 1)

keep his head above today's ris- |
ing inflationary waters. The net
result of this under our perm-
anent retirement plans is that
the retired employee with 30 years
of service at normal retirement,
inevitably receives a retirement
allowance far below the 50 percent
of final average salary which was
held out to him when he entered
State service. His pension allow-
ance is 25 percent of final aver-
age salary—and more like 23 per-
cent of his final year's salary. His
annuity allowance, because it has|
‘been built upon his career aver-
ege salary, hardly purchases an
annual allowance as much as 16
percent of his final average sal-
ary—this is somewhere in the
neighborhood of 16 percent of his
final year's salary. In terms of
hughest or final year’s salary, the
retiree begins with a benefit
amounting to about 38 percent of
‘is normal standard of living. This
is hardly a large sum and prob-
ably accounts for the inability of
Persons to retire at the normal
retirement age. Lest this commit-
tee think that this summarizes the
Pormal situation, let me hasten

to add that most retirees have)

dependents. Assuming that a re~
tiree, age 55, with a dependent
wife five years younger than him-
sel, decides to elect Option 3
which pays her half his allow-
ance after he dies, then his re-
tirement benefit is reduced by ap-
proximately 21 percent, The net
result of all these elements is to
provide the retiree with 30 per-
cent of the income required for
his standard of living prior to
retirement. In this day and age
when we are trying to prevent
More people from becoming pub-
Ne charges, when on a national
scale respected individuals and
groups are weighing the practi-
calities of a “negative income
tax”, It hardly makes sense for
@ State as forward looking as New
York to tolerate inadequate al-

something like 42 percent of the
required living standards for his
employed counterpart,

To @ limited extent, the State
has recognized the public em-
pioyee’s substandard —_ position
which results from the ravages
of inflation. Last year our Leg-
isiature enacted the 1/60th bill for
one year, retroactive to 1960 and
recognized that employees must
be given sufficient retirement dol-
lars. It also passed a bill which
would adjust retirement bene-
fits in accordance with changes
|'n the cost of living. Unfortun-
ately, this latter bill was not
signed,

Our Association has given ex-
tensive consideration to the posi-
tion of our members and to the
various suggestions for improving
the Retirement System. We have)
cuncluded that the 1/60th retire- |

step in the direction of a simpli-
fied, just and equitable retirement
program. When it ts augmented
by automatic provisions for
changes in the cost of living, then
we will be assured that its fair-
ness will continue into retirement
years, Effectively, it will mean
|that the retiree under option 3
|will be able to carry his retire-
ment living standards at a level
which is slightly more than 36
percent of his living standard dur-
ing his final working year. The
eltect of Social Security ten years
later would be to increase his liv-
ing standard by approximately 22
percent, This is not an outlandish
amount for a lifetime of public
vervice. Under option 3, the re-
tirement benefit including Social
Security ten years later is only
58 percent of his employed count-
erpart’s income. Since the com-
bined benefit may still not meet
the income needs of retirees, it is
possible that retirement credit for
each year of service might need

Public service. If one were to
try to envision the retiree ten
years after retirement, one would
see that the ravages of inflation
will have further depressed his
income {rom 30 percent of his/|
achieved standard of living to
something like 20 percent of a
dollar debased by ten more years
of inflation.

What about Social Security?

Except for certain very temporary |

@djustments in ascertaining final
average salary, Social Security
benefits are predicated on a mod-

{fied working lifetime average in- |

Security average earning base)
may not even be as much as 60
Percent of the retiree’s final year’s
earnings, This Social Security

ase is further watered down be-|

cause the retiree between age 55

and 65 will have no earnings
Gredited to his account, thereby
reducing his average Social Se-

curity average (even with five of
those ten years thrown out); in
addition, the paralyzing effects of
inflation will have run ten addi»
tonal years, further undermining
the purchasing power of Social
Eeourtty benefits. The retiree ten
years after retirement can then
look forward to augmenting his
retirement allowance paid by the
Stine to the extent of about 22
percent of his living standard
Peeds at age 65. This puts his
eombined income from State Re-

tention to the fact that some em-
pioyees, in anticipation of a very
low retirement income provided by
the system, have sacrificed cur-
rent income to the extent of de-
jpositing additional moneys with
the Retirement System. Their
purpose, of course, is to increase
their retirement income; your
committze should not be age |
Into considering such money de-
|posited in the system to be in
eny way different from Invest-
ments, life insurance policies, sav-
ings or other private endeavors
toward security in old age.

We also wish to draw to your
{committee's attention that while
|public employees have been suf-
fering shrinking purchasing
power in their annuity accounts
because of inflation, this selfsame
inflation has helped to fatten the
iacome and asset position of the
Tmployee's Retirement System, It
seems only fair that the retroac-
t.ve eature contained in last year's
1/60th legislation be guaranteed
for each year of service after Au-
Gust 19, 1996 with no dimiution of
benefits. The funds for this may
im part be available from the ex-
cess earnings and assets of the
Employees Retirement System. We
also recommend that:

up benefit equal to 1/30 of

year of service, maximum of

‘The meeting date coincided with

which, according to Louis Colby,
chapter president, reported the
facts behind the so-called de-
mands made by Council 50 at its
recent meeting with officials of
the Long Island State Park Com-
mission.”

CSEA completely discredited
the union’s posture, Colby said,
In revealing the demands to be
entirely misdirected. With refer-
ence to Council 50's demands for
hourly pay increases, time-and-
a-half pay for overtime work, and
reclassification of various titles,
the CSEA flyer pointed out, ac-

| cording to Colby, that “the Long

Island State Park Commission just
doesn’t have the authority to de-
elde on salary matters, overtime

rates and reclassification of

The bulletin explained that

ment, “are under the same juris-

© Settling of several griev-

Colby also announced plans to

tour “outlying installations” of the |

chapter at an early date to es-
tablish contact with non-mem-
bers and to survey current needs
and desires of present membershp.
Based on this survey, an agenda
will be drawn up for presentation
at a meeting to be arranged with
the Park Commission, Colby said.

The challenge remains, Flaum>
enbaum noted, despite the fact
that the CSEA won an overwhelms
ing vote of confidence in q rep=
resentation election held last
month in the Town of Hempstead,

‘The town vote, held only among
workers of the town sanitary de=
partment, was welcomed by CSEA
because it posed the choice clearly

which sought to divide and frac-
tionalize workers into smaller,

Su.folk field representative; Rich=
ard Gaba and Lester Lipkin, Nas-
sau and Suffolk CSEA attorneys
respectively, and Fiaumenbaum
as ex-officio member.

The group will seek a common
policy to meet the challenge,

“The committee has been asked
to report as soon as possible,’*
Flaumenbaum said, “We will call

to hear their report.”

“We are going to attack in
every area where our organiza-
tion is threatened,” he declared.

CSEA Reallocation Appeal

for boosts of from two t ofive
grades for eight titles in the re-

earlier reallocation request by a
group of CSEA members which
was virtually turned down, Kelly's
decision in that instance—termed
“most inadequate" by Education
Department officials — approved

Pealy stated:

“Qualified professional workers

CIVIL SERVICE LEADER '

Tuesday, February 21,

a

before an audience of more than
1,100 persons in the Commodore
Hotel last week

Alton G. Marshall, Secretary
Governor Rockefeller, pre
the award to Bendet in an in-
formal ceremony before the lun-
cheon because he had been called
back to the office of the Governor
and the official presentation, and
Marshall's remarks, were given by
Richard E. Stewart, Superinten-
dent of the State msurance De-
partment

Stewart sald the award to Ben-
det “marked a proud day for our
department. Mr. Marshall and I
have had a long association with
Mr. Bendet in other fields and are
deeply admiring of his unusual
capacity for knowing his own
mind and acting on the principals
in which he believes.”

‘Man of Deep Truth’

Quoting a statement of Mar-
shalls, Stewart said that “we
who know So! respect the deep
truth in this man. It ts natural
that his fi ing spirit and desire
for the truth should be expanded
into helping erase the inequalities
and dis that plague
other men,

In accepting the Brotherhood
award, Bendet quoted the famed
Rabbi Hillel on the definition of
brotherhood. When challenged by
@ heokler to explain the meaning
of religion in one sentence, the

replied by saying: “Do not

unto another that whien you

do not want another to do unto

you; this ls the essence of religion
all else is commentary.”

Bendet that brotherhood
meant this to him and that broth-
@rhood was also known by many
other names: elvil rights, human

minations

said

BENEDICTION — Many of the 1,100 per-

sons who attended the luncheon of the New York

Hotel last week

rights, equality
“put they all add up to the same
thing, no matter what label you
give them.”

Cites CSEA Role

He said that the Civil Service
Employees Assn., along with other
organizations formed for human
benefit, has played a leading role
in promoting the welfare of all
civil service employees of every
race, |religion and other back- |
ground in such down-to-earth
matters as salaries and the im-
portant matters of being treated
with dignity and promoting a
sense of professionalism and par-
ticipation in government

“As both a civil servant and a
human being, I have tried, in my
own way, to advance the propo-
sition that merit is the only erl-
terion for recognition and reward
in public service No other |
position is tenable,” Bendet de-
clared.

In introducing Commissioner
Catherwood for the Benjamin
Potoker Award for brotherhood,
Abraham B. Shavelson, cited the
long and distinguished career of |
the award recipient, He credited |
Catherwood with putting “new
and stronger life into elimination |
of anti-diserimination practices in

employment.” He-sald that the
Labor Department head had
created programs to give new

working opportunities to the youth
of numberable minority groups;
promulgated forceful regulations
to eliminate discrimination in|
Journeymen apprenticeship pro-
grams and “has stood on the side
of fair play in almost day to day |
decisions in the area of anti-bias
and

anti-discrimination — prag-

| tees.”

Glad For Opportunity
accepting the award,
Catherwood declared that “while
the mstances of being Labor
Commissioner have created much
of the opportunity for me to be
able to help the cause of brother-
hood I can honestly say that I am
grateful that opportunity has fal-
len to me.”

Catherwood credited the State
of New York as “one of the most
enlightened employers in the
world” and said that it was his
pleasure to witness brotherhood in
action almost daily in State gov-
ernment
