CSEA Files Suit

No Reallocations Since
1929, Safety Inspectors
Go To Court For Action

Back in 1929 State Factory Inspectors and Construction
Safety Inspectors confined their work hours to doing
what they were hired to do—inspect factories and mercan-

tile establishments.

A lot of things have changed
in the past 41 years, including
the duties of these inspector
series, but 1929 was the last year
inspectors received a realloca-
tion and the Civil Service Em-
Ployees Assn. is going to court
to force the State Labor Dept. to
do something about it.

A CSEA group headed by Nor-
man Blattberg, a supervising
factory inspector, has long ap-
pealed to the Labor Dept. to
recognize the fact that the scope
of their duties has so expanded
that they must also:

® Make sure aerial tramways
are safe

® Check safety measures for
window cleaners.

® Enforce State building code
for places of public assembly—
and much more.

Blattberg said the men did not
mind performing the newer,
more complicated duties, but in-
sisted on being paid for tt,
Otherwise, he said, they are con-

sistently performing out-of-title
work.

CSEA Opens Fight

Higher Salary Differentials
Demanded For State Nurses
Employed In New York City

ALBANY—The Civil Service Employees Assn. has demanded that geographic sal-
ary differentials for staff nurses, head nurses and supervising nurses employed in State

facilities within the five boroughs of New York City be increased.
State director of classification and compensation, CSEA

In its appeal to the
cited the competitive salaries of
similar titles employed by New
York City, and said “There can
be no doubt but that the salary
paid (by New York City) for
these nursing titles in five bor-
oughs is significantly higher
than that paid for the same or
similar nursing positions in the
rest of the State of New York ...
‘The increase in hiring rates cOv-
ering nurses employed by the
City of New York is such that
the State has been removed from
the competitive market in this
area.”

CSEA called for increases in
the geographic differentials as
follows:

Staff nurse (all positions)—
increase area geographic differ-
ential within the five boroughs
of New York City from $575 per
year to $1,600 per year;

Head nurse (all positions)—
increase area geographic differ-
ential within the five boroughs
of New York City from $450
per year to $1,450 per year;

Supervising nurse (all posi-
tions)—increase area geographic
differential within the five bor-
oughs of New York City from
$200 per year to $580 per year.

CSEA's application, submitted
after extensive research, also
said: “This application takes
into consideration the fact that
State salaries for all of these
titles will be increased by $250

CSEA To Fight
Discrimination
On State Exam

The Civil Service Employ-
ees Assn. will go to court to
prevent the State Civil Serv-
ice Dept. from conducting a
competitive promotional exam-
ination that gives preference to
two minority groups.

The CSEA Board of Directors
learned on Sept. 8 that the
examination, created mainly
for Spanish-speaking or black
Persons, would only be an oral
examination and would appear
to bar normal competition for
the posts. The two positions are
Career Opportunities Profes-
sionals, associate level, Grade
25 and above, and senior level,
grade 23 and below.

One CSEA spokesman said the
Employees Association had an
outstanding record of effort on
behalf of minority groups but
that “we cannot allow the Civil
Service Dept. to break the laws
and constitution of the State
for any group, whether it be
white, black or what have you,

“How does it help any ethnic
Broup by breaking the law?”
he asked,

‘The CSEA State Aid Commit-
tee, whose _membership 1s main-
ly black, had already rejected
the Civil Service Dept. request
for approval of the examination.

After debate, the CSBA
Board of Directors ordered its
counsel to file suit to prevent
the examination from being
held.

nificantly increased in order to
keep State hiring rates for these
nursing titles within the City of
New York on a comparable basis
with those paid by the City of
New York for the same or sim-
ilar positions.”

The new salaries effective for
City nurses, said CSEA, were
retroactively effective on July 1,
1970. “This means that State
nurses working in State-operated
facilities within the confines of
the City of New York have al-
ready been working for more
than two months at salary levels
considerably below equity with
their City counterparts,” said
CSEA.

Health and Hospital corpora-
tion nurses in New York City in
the above titles currently re-
ceive: staff nurse, $9,500 at date
of hiring; head nurse, $10,300;

and supervisor and nurse-mid-
wife, $11,600.

Ramapo Aides
Win Fact Finding
On Pact Demands

RAMAPO — Ramapo
Township, under unyielding
pressure by the Civil Serv-
ice Employees Assn., has
asked for fact-finding following
six futile negotiating sessions in-
volving wage demands and
fringe benefits by CSEA mem-
bers.

Charging that they are the
victims of a partisan adminis-
tration, the increased cost-of-
living, and spiraling tax struc-
ture, CSEA members point to
the fact that their wage scale
is well below that of neighbor-
ing townships.

At the last meeting between
both parties, the Town offered
a-salary plan with a four per-
cent increment in 1971 and a
three percent wage increase in
1972. CSEA refused the offer
since the County schedule for
comparable job classifications is
approximately 15 percent higher
and the fact is that adjacent
Clarkstown recently agreed to
sizeable pay increases over and
above the County level.

Summarization of the major
CSEA proposals were: 1971—a
seven percent salary increase;
fully paid hospitalization and a
dental plan for employees and
dependents; 1972—a five percent
salary increase with a 5-10 per-
cent paid differential for shift
workers with double-time after a
48-hour workweek.

During negotiations,

CSEA

hammered away-at the fact that
their proposals still fell short of

and facilities of the various
State departments and agencies,
and a record of accomplishment.

This last is frequently a dou-
‘ble-edged sword. In the course
of his 12 years in the Execu-
tive Chambers, Governor Rocke-
feller has compiled a record of
considerable achievement, but
he is also exposed to criticism
for the dissatisfactions that
Plague the voters, rising crime
and narcotics addiction rates,
increased taxes and inadequacy
of school financing, for exam-
ples. Taking ‘a leaf out of Mayor
John V. Lindsay's campaign
book of the preceding year,
Rockefeller has_been publicly
professing his mea culpas, and
ascribes shortcomings of his
administration to his attempt to
do too much too quickly.

A Long List

By his own estimate, the
Governor is satisfied with his
record of accomplishment in the
civil service area. Ip his talk
to the Civil Service Employees
Assn. convention in Buffalo two
weeks ago, the Governor out-
lined what he regard as his
major contributions to the im-
provement of the State's civil
service and to the lot of the
civil service employees. These
include an 85 percent increase
in the average salaries of State
employees, from $4,535 in 1958
to $8,400 in 1970; the establish-
ment of a non-contributory pen-
sion system and the vesting of
pension rights after ten years
of employment; recognition of
collective bargaining rights of
civil service employees under
the Taylor Law; and the fact
that State employee salaries
were increased during eight of
the years that he has served
as the State's chief executive.

“I am especially pleased,” the
Governor told the delegates to
the CSEA convention, “that the
Taylor Law is giving you such
an effective bargaining instru-
ment to improve your emplo;
ment conditions. As far as I'm
concerned, the best government
in this country is the govern-

County itself.

CSEA, in agreeing to fact-
finding, also asked for binding
arbitration. The Town flatly re-
fused.

CSEA reports that under the
current wage setup, the majority
of Ramapo Town employees and
their families are forced to hold
more than one job to continue
living in the town, “This is just
one more case of taxpayer-em-
Ployees being forced to under-
write the cost of government,”

ment closest to the people and
that is local government. And,
on all levels of government, the
Taylor Law has proved itself
practical, workable and valu-
able.”

Some civil servants will dis-
‘agree with the Governor on
that statement, but no one can
gainsay that ‘Rockefeller has
great appeal to a good per-
centage of public employees.
One affect of the Taylor Law,
however, has been to remove
him from much of the. personal
contact he used to engage in
with civil servants in the pre-
Taylor days. He has followed
both the spirit and the letter
of the law, in the main, and
left negotiating to the negotia-
tors as provided under the sta-
tute. Despite this, the warmth
in the greeting he got from
CSBA delegates showed his great
skill in renewing old relation-
ships on the spot.

‘Ome ‘interesting facet of
Rockefeller's appearance in
Buffalo was that he made no
promises about the future—nor
did his Democratic opponent,
Arthur J. Goldberg. This tends
to confirm the fact that the
Governor feels his record of
accomplishments ds strong
enough to ‘appeal to public em-
Ployees without engaging in the
“pie in the sky" rigamaro] that
usually adorns the campaign
trail.

Paul Adams

‘The Conservative Party can-
didate for Governor, Paul L.
Adams, did not address the con-
vention but made known his
views in favor of prohibitions of
strikes by public employees and
denounced the Rockefeller Ad-
ministration for using outside
consultants to provide services
that can better and more effi-
ciently be performed by civil
service employees.

Heart Bill Helped

Governor Rockefeller ap-
proved bills adopted by the State
Legislature at its last session
which recognize heart and lung
diseases among policemen and
firemen as occupation disabling
hazards arising from the. course
of employment. These have long
been objectives of uniformed
police arid fire fighting forces
throughout the State, and their
enactment has brought . wide-
spread endorsements from these
groups to the Governor's can-
didacy,

The three candidates for Gov-
ernor, as well as other candi-
dates for State and local elec-
tive offices, recognize the power
at the polls of the civil service
employees and their families,
Before the final word is said
in this campaign, various can-
didates will no doubt continue
to enlarge upon their civil serv-
ice views in an effort to capture
the magsive voting strength of
the civil service employee.

(This is the last in a series
on the three gubernatorial can-
didates, Profiles on the three
contenders for the U.S. Senate

Announcer

By MARVIN BAXLEY

Rich rewards were prom-
ised in the big show-stop-
ping song from the musical-
comedy, “The Honeymoon-
ers,” that opened for a limited
one-performance run in Buffalo
on the second day of the 60th
annual Civil Service Employees
Assn. meeting,

The show, an obvious pastiche
on the famous television pro-
gram, played to a packed house
of delegates, who themselves be-
came participants in the show
(a la “Hair”’) when copies of
The Leader were passed out to
emphasize the play's message.

The hit song, which admon-
ished the audience to follow de-
tails in The Leader of the
CSEA's State membership drive;
was enthusiastically sung by a
mixed quartet. In fact, it was
the hirsute member of the quar-
tet who offered the one bit of
nudity that seems to be de ri-
gueur for any new stage offering
these days. Thus Art Bolton, Sul-
livan County representative to
the Board of Directors, appeared
with shirt wide open down to his
belt buckle while the girl mem-
bers were stitched up tightly to
their headbands. Giving credit
where it 1s due, the trio of beaut-
jes who rounded out the quartet
were: Ann Carabin of Mental
Hygiene, Albany; Sandy Sokol-
owski and Yvette Gregoire, both
of the Department of Agriculture
and Markets.

The rich rewards promised in
the song pertain to prizes that
would go to CSEA members who
recruit new members in the
CSEA Super Sign-Up Season.

But, in addition, it can apply to
the knowledge of a job-well-
done by the four leading play-
ers.

Carmen Sgarlata, of the
CSEA’s advertising agency, car-
ried the biggest load as Ralph
(although nowhere approaching
the girth of the original Jackie
Gleason) with a professional
aplomb rivalled.by Marvin Nail-
of, of CSEA public relations, in
the role of Norton (the Art
Carney of character).

Their sly, shyster, tongue-in-
cheek humor found the perfect
foils in the blase, here-we-go-
again playing of Mary Beth Cor-
bett and Marilyn Jackson, both
of the CSEA public relations
staff, as their long-suffering
spouses, Alice and Trixie, in bar-
gain-basement dresses and fluf-
fy, floppy houseshoes.

The play itself, concerns
Ralph's efforts to enlist Norton
in his scheme to get-rich-quick
by recruiting members for CSEA
and collecting on the prizes.

(Each recruiter gets a special
award certificate with a retail
value of approximately $3 to
$3.50, redeemable at any S & H
Green Stamp gift center in the
United States. In addition, each
successful recruiter has his or
her name entered in a jackpot
drawing, with one entry for
each new member successfully
signed up, to compete for a first
prize of a 1971 Camaro or run-
ner-up prizes such as RCA color
television sets, Panasonic stereo
receivers and Helbros wrist
watches.)

Although it was never in doubt
as to whether Ralph would be
successful in convincing his co-
horts, the final act remains to
be determined by the delegates
and general membership in their
response to the drive.

If first-nighter applause is an
indication, the drive will be an
overwhelming success.

Saturdays.

‘Let The Best Man Win’

NE public employee problem that came under particu-

larly heavy attack by the 1,000 delegates attending a
convention of the Civil Service Employees Assn. in Buffalo
recently was the “misuse” of oral examinations by the State
Civil Service Dept.

The Department was charged with a variation of pol-
itical patronage by using oral examinations to eliminate
qualified persons from new jobs and/or promotions in order
to place “favorites” in the positions.

“Between the one-out-of-three rule and the use of oral
exams, how can anyone claim that we have a truly com-
petitive examination system?” one delegate asked.

Hardly any State agency escaped scathing attacks on
the use of these rules to maneuver persons in or out of
positions by eliminating them with either one rule or the
other or promoting them if so favored.

The evidence presented was so strong that the Civil
Service Dept. must prove without qualification that it is
not the chief violator of the Civil Service Law.

‘The best response would be to eliminate both the one-
out-of-three rule and oral examinations at once. Since
State employees are willing to compete with all others on
exams, the least the State can do is genuinely “let the best
man win.”

A Dead Policeman’s Gift

HERE can be no greater gift than that of saving a

fellow human being. A few have shown their heroic
devotion by acts of rescue. Rarer, still, are the cases of per~
sons who have been responsible for the survival of others
after their own lives have ended.

Such a drama unfolds with the use of a kidney from
Ptl. Robert Scheu of the E. 126th St. stationhouse in Man-
hattan, who died last Thursday. With extraordinary speed,
the young policeman’s kidney was flown by helicopter to a
hospital in Newark, NJ., there to be transplanted during a
four-hour emergency operation into a
Elizabeth man.

The family of Ptl. Scheu had given their permission
to keep that kidney functioning and use it in the transplant
if necessary. Because of their courage, the recipient sur-
vived. Such valiant decisions—clearly beyond the call of
duty—reflect on the calibre not only of the man behind the
shield but those families behind the men who display those
shields,

23-year-old .

LETTERS |
TO THE EDITOR

Editor, The Leader:

New York State, A Samuel
Gompers or a Simon Legree?

Gompers was a leader in the
advancement of working people.
Legree was a slave driver.
Which is New York State?

From time to time it is re-
quired that I work overtime.

(My compensation 1s elther of”
two options.

The first 1s take the over-
time at the time-and-one-half
rate in cash, or take the time
back at an hour-for-hour rate.

‘This second {s a complete de-
nial of the overtime rate, and
a complete denial of the con-
cept of the time-and-one-half
rate for overtime.

It 1s my understanding that
the law of the State of New
York, requires the payment of
the time-and-one-half rate.

It 1s logical for me to as-
sume that the Labor Dept. of
the State of New ‘York would
allow this practice to function
in the private industry area?

Some of us have a need of
the time that may be accumu-
lated by working overtime,
usually at a health sacrifice,
should we be denied the same
compensation as one who, for
his own reasons, desires cash
for his overtime?

This ts written in the hope of
publication, for {t has been my
experience that only in this
way can a just policy be form-
ulated.

By what name shall
York State be known?

Trust Must Prevail

HONESTY, INTEGRITY and forthrightness in dealing
with the public, with colleagues and with other government
agencies is a “must” for all civil servants who wish to main-
tain the highest standards of public relations.

IT JUST CAN’T be any other way if the business of gov-
ernment is to operate at maximum efficiency.

THERE MUST BE be mutual trust in all dealings involv-
ing civil servants. When one gives his word to provide speci-
fic material or to perform some action, this word must be
kept—even if it isn’t in writing.

WE HAVE URGED our readers to put things in writing
both for protection and to keep an accurate record. But it is
not always feasible to put things in writing when civil serv-
ants are in face-to-face negotiations.

IT Is UNDER such circumstances, particularly when
time is of the essence, that the critical importance of mutual
trust is especially meaningful.

WE HAD OCCASION to have all these truisms brought
home to us recently in watching negotiations between a
publicly supported educational institution and a private
educational organization.

SHORTLY AFTER the meetings began, it became quite
obvious that the private educational group was negotiating
in bad faith. They said they could deliver things they never
intended to deliver. They promised to do things’they never
intended to do. Just about everything they said and did was
dishonest.

ON THE OTHER hand, the government educators were
honest and forthright. Their statements were open and
aboveboard, and they were ready to carry out every item
of any understanding that may have been reached.

ON THE GOVERNMENT side, which involved several de-
partments, the negotiations were traumatic.

ON THE OTHER side, it didn’t seem to bother them one
bit that their conduct raised serious questions about their
honesty and integrity. Nor were they the slightest bit con-
cerned that their public relations, already at a low ebb, sank
underground and totally out of sight.

THERE IS NO POINT to a discussion of any of the un-
pleasant details which finally resulted in a binding con-
tract, except to say that the bad taste and bad faith of the
private educators continued unabated to the bitter end.

IT WAS A SHOCKING experience, but it was also an ex-
perience that had to be told to our readers for two reasons:

*® Continue to maintain the highest standards of in-
tegrity in your dealings with others;

© If you are certain that the other side is dealing with
you in bad faith, break off negotiations immediately until
you are assured that they will stop playing games in any
contact you care to resume.

CIVIL SERVANTS ARE entitled to reciprocal honesty
and integrity at all times.

Credit Union
P.D.A. Okayed \

ALBANY—The State of
New York will now allow
payroll deductions for credit
unions up to four times per
year, it was announced this week.

‘The Department of Audit and
Control» said that 47 credit
untons will be allowed to partici-
pate in the payroll deductions
from State employees’ paychecks.

It was agreed that the min!-
mum payroll deduction would be
$5 and the maximum deduction
would be $999.

If an individual did not have
sufficient monies for any given
pay period to have a deduction
taken out, the credit union would
have to reinitiate any such de-
duction if the person was off the
payroll one period.

The State Comptroller's Office
will provide the forms to be util-
ized to ensure uniformity.

Any person having a credit
union deduction who transfers
from one department to another
must first pay off that loan and
initiate a new loan with the same
or another credit unton. In other
words, only one credit union de-
duction may be in existence for
each employee at one time.

Innovator. Enriched

ALBANY — Theodore Wells
has won a certificate of merit
and $85 for his time and mon-
ey-saving suggestion, accepted
by the Thruway Authority.

ed pistol wound had accidentally snuffed out his own life
last Thursday had his kidney used posthumously in trans-
plant. surgery that helped save the life of a New Jersey.

partner, Skt. Peter Leicht, took
him to the Hospital for Joint
Diseases, but he remained un-
conscious and succumbed on.

to make the kidney available for

Dougald of Blizabeth, N.Ji, was
in dire need of a kidney. He
had been using a blood-cleansing:

his state was fast deteriorating.
To meet the emergency, a police

Prosecutor, Judge And Hangman

‘THE. TIME has: come for the government to start treat-
ing: civill service employees with the same: respect that 16
gives: felons.

EVEN SUSPECTS: in the most heinous crimes are pro-
tected by’ civil’ rights: statutes. Rules of evidence must pre-
vail, Hach: step of the process from arrest to incarceration:
is handled! by @ different person with an entirely. different
attitude towards the accused:

BUT CIVIL SERVICE employees are not given this right.
When they are accused of an infraction of departmental
policy or. rules, they are faced by an administration that
serves as accuser, prosecutor,, judge, jury, bailiff and even
hangman.

THAT IS WHY we need an outside hearing officer who
owes no allegiance to either side but who is acceptable to
both.

HE MUST be wholly disinterested.

HE MUST treat both sides equally, giving each the op-
portunity to present its case fairly, utilizing the rules of
evidence that are afforded contestants in both civil! anc
criminal courts: and guaranteed by our National Constitu-
tion,

AN OUTSIDE hearing: officer cam make: a decision based:
on the credibility of each witness—not accepting, the un-
substantiated word of an Administration witness: while: dis-
regarding the testimony of a defendant.

AN OUTSIDE hearing officer can tell what 1s truth and
what is fiction. Is the witness: sweating: profusely? Does he
move his eyes back and forth? How is: he pausing between
words? Is he reciting something that he has studied and
memorized? Is he changing his story while testifying?

ONLY AN OUTSIDE disinterested hearing officer ts
willing to find out what the truth is.

AND THE HEARING officer can only make a recom-
mendation to the department head who makes the final
decision.

A RECOMMENDATION was made many months ago by
the Civil Service Commission to implement this type trial.
But what has happened to this recommendation?

DISCIPLINARY HEARINGS within any department are
quasi-criminal in nature. A man can—and has in the past
—lost his job and his pension as a result, The same ele-
ments of due process must prevail in all cases im order that
justice be preserved.

UNDER THE PRESENT process, a high-level manage~
ment official who must parrot the Adnuinistration’s policy
cannot, because of personal and official feelings, find! that
amother management official has goofed by preferring
charges when they should not have beem: considered.

TO FIND A man not-guilty is to say that the policy of
the department is in error.

THE PRESENT trial commissioners—not all of them:
but most, including one before whom no member of the
Uniformed Fire Officers Assn. will ever appear because of
his unjust treatment of defendants—continually find that
the administration is sacred and defendants are guilty
even before a word of testimony is taken.

THESE MEN are nothing short of stooges for manage-
ment.

THERE ARE many avenues open to us to rectify this
evil perpetrated by government employers. And we will
cause this injustice to be repaired.

CIVIL SERVANTS are not second-class citizens and
should not be: treated’ as suct. We ave entitled to the same
protection under law as any other American and we will
win justice as guaranteed by our Constitution,

The note to Mom in the hospital
is cheerful. Debbie’s sad, but she’s
a real trouper — she takes over
Mom’s duties when she’s away.

But, we all know — there’s more
to running a family when Mom’s
away than doing the dishes.

In some families, the financial
worry of the illness overwhelms
everything else. This is not the situa-
tion when you are a STATEWIDE
PLAN subscriber.

You'll never know just how
valuable THE STATEWIDE PLAN can
be until you have to use it. It’s one
of the most comprehensive, in-
depth health plans in the country
today. It is the result of years of
continual improvement to meet the
needs of public employees.

The result: Today’s 1970 STATE-
WIDE HEALTH PLAN is there
when you need it most — pro-
tecting you against the high cost of
getting well.

Don’t think for a minute’ that
we've stopped trying to figure out
ways to make THE STATEWIDE
PLAN better. We haven't.

If you don’t have THE STATE-
WIDE PLAN we have only one
question...

Why?

There isn’t a better plan in the
state — at least not one that we
know about.

Special State Traineeships

In Field Of Youth Parole Work

Don’t wait till manana to file—do it now—for youth
parole work positions with the State requiring a basic know-
ledge of Spanish. There are two titles open at present:

youth parole worker trainee
parole worker “B," span-
ning the salary range of $10,383-
12,573.

The salary levels mentioned
above exclude two items—a full
6 percent boost in pay, scheduled
for the coming April, plus a $200
annual geographical differential
going to aides who work in met-
Topolitan New York or Monroe
County.

To be considered as a trainee,
you'll need to have completed
one year of graduate study in
social work or have behind you
a year in social action activities;
also acceptable will be one year
in any of these areas: clinical,
educational, recreational or
group care work experience with
delinquent or disturbed children.
The last alternative allows you
to qualify with a master’s in psy-
chology, sociology, guidance,
correction administration or any
subject akin to these.

However, for the worker “B”
posts, only applicants who pos-
sess their MSW will be eligible.
‘Those persons now enrolled in a
schoo] of social work can take
the exam now and, if successful,
be appointed immediately on
graduation.

Challenging Tasks

Upon appointment, challeng-
ing responsibilities le ahead:
your role would be to help de-
linquents or pre-delinquents un-
derstand the root of their prob-
lems and maturely adapt to soc-
ially acceptable behavior. Needed,
therefore, are interview skills
and a deep understanding of the
emotional problems frequently
faced by children and adoles-
cents. Included in the objectives
of this program is the counseling
of juveniles and their families on
personal, social, educational and

ashe RNR ART

II, paying $8,169, and youth

job-finding situations. Profes-
sional social work methods are
applied toward achieving this
goal.

An important matter to weigh
is how these positions will help
your personal growth. As well as
developing your human relations
skills, the Department of Social
Services (your employer) en-
courages its workers to pursue
graduate study. In line with this,
financial assistance and educa-
tional leave programs are feat-
ured.

For more insight into how this
works, or an overview of the job
in general, request Exam Notice
No. 20-375. You can write the

as listed in your telephone direc-
tory.

For State Sr. Clerk Title

Yr. Of Background Handling
Office Detail Is Satisfactory

Numerous entries are expected to be filed before Oct. 5 to fill State vacancies as
senior clerk. The major reason behind the prediction: standards to qualify call for only a
single year of office or clerical experience, placing the title in reach of many persons.

The actual openings will all be located in the New York metropolitan area, thus

automatically including the $200
geographical differential. As a
direct result, the present pay
range stands at $5,746-7,091,
added to which will be a 6-per-
cent boost effective in April 1971.

Featured on the written exam
are ‘about half a dozen areas:

office practices; interpreting
written material; arithmetic;
vocabulary, and supervision.

While a promotion exam will be
held simultaneously, the State
Civil Service Dept. foresees suf-
ficient vacancies remaining to
make use of the open-competit-
ive list as well.

Suburban Test Centers

In addition to the test center
set up in New York City, seven
centers in the adjoining subur-
ban counties will be established
—Babylon, Brentwood, Mineola,
Nyack, Peekskill, Riverhead and
White Plains. In making out ap-
plications, candidates are asked
to suggest their preference of
most convenient sites.

A potpourri of duties is listed
in Exam Notice No. 22-686.
Those appointed will plan work
assignments and maintain de-
sired standards of quality and
output; collect information to be

An eight-member Division of

the Civil Service Employees Assn.
will chart its position at a lun-
cheon meeting set for 1 p.m. on
Sept. 28 at the Silo Restaurant
in Albany. The following day,
reported chairman Edward Al-

to negotiate with D of E repre-

used as the basis for reports;
review appiteations and other
forms for correctness and com-
pleteness in cases calling for
judgment in meeting prescribed
requirements, and other closely
related responsibilities.

An important aspect of the
senior clerk's tasks is the re-
sponsibility for discipline in the

unit and the implementation of
time schedules. Answering of
correspondence is also among the
usual chores undertaken.

The date of examination has
been slated as Oct. 5. Applicants
are urged to write or visit their
local offices of the State Civil
Service Dept. well in advance of
the date filing will be ended.

Mental Health |

Most effective is the teamwork approach of psychiatrists, |
nurses, psychologists, social workers, occupational and |
recreational therapists. All modalities of psychiatric treat-
ment are available - individual and group psychotherapy,
hypnotherapy, electroshock, new multi-vitamin and sup-
plemental drug therapy. Bright cheerful colors and spa- |
cious socialization areas immediately key this modern
therapeutic approach to the care of the mentally and
emotionally ill, the drug and alcohol addicted and those
in need of custodial care.

plans for the future.

The major points discussed
included the development of
chapter units, the opening of
chapter offices, rebates to chap-
ters and the feasibility of reg-
ular educational seminars.

Discussed in the report were:

Item I. The first item that
was discussed by the committee
was the development of units
within chapters. The commit-
tee in general agrees with the
current constitutional provision
allowing unit development based
on number and/or percentage
of potential members. There was
some discussion as to the defini-
tion of a unit centering around
the need for unit development
within single employer groups.
In general, this is approved
with the stipulation that con-
ditions of employment common
to all employees within that
unit should be negotiated in
one contract. Items unique to
this identifiable subgroup of
employees may well be’ nego-
tlated as a separate item in an
overall contract.

Item I, The next item of
discussion concerned the show-
ing of interest requirements to-
wards instigating a representa-
tion action before PERB, This
committee recommends that the
showing of Interest requirements
of the Taylor Law necessary to
start action before the PHRB
be raised as to coincide with
this showing of interest re-
quirements set forth in the Na-
tional Labor Relations Act. It
was generally felt that a 10-30
percent requirement is too lit-
tle and that it allows endless
and unnecessary actions to be
brought before PERB.

Xtem IM, The next topic dis-
cussed was the funding of
chapter offices. It was pointed
out that some difficulty: had
been experienced with the es-
tablishment of regional offices
and that in an effort to pro-
vide the office type services
made available by regional of-
fices, this committee recom-
mends that direct aid be grant-

greetings to Irving Flaumenbaum, first vice-president of the Civil
Service Employees Assn,, during an appearance at the recent CSEA
Convention in Buffalo,

ed to chapters operating chap-
ter offices on a per member
basis. The amount of aid to be
$1 per member to a maximum
of $2,500. In, addition, a dis-
cussion on the present regional
field office reimbursement re-
sulted with this committee
recommending that the regional
office reimbursement be dou-
bled.

tem IV. Lack of unit re-
bates by chapters was discussed
by the committee and it was
felt that by maintaining -a
major portion of the rebate,
the chapters can encourage par-
ticipation and activity on a
higher scale than at unit level.
These activities could be de-
fined as delegate meetings,
conference meetings, education-
al forums and general chapter
meetings.

Item V. The committee’s con-
versation turned to that of a
formal educational program
consisting of 3-day seminars
held on a quarterly or semi-
annual basis. The expenses of
the chapter representative to be
shared equally out of the bud-
geted Education Fund and the
various, chapters. Suggested
ideas to be included in these
educational seminars could be
contract negotiations, _griev-
ance procedures, relationship of
unit to chapter and other items
of equal concern to all CSHA
members.

Item VI. The final item dis-
cussed was the scheduling of

‘the Annual Meeting on the day

following Labor Day holiday.
The committee agrees that the
inconvenience caused far ex-
ceeds any benefit afforded and
would therefore, strongly recom-
mend that in future the Annual
Meeting be held during a week
that Labor Day does not fall

mittee include Vincent Alessi,

Arthur 'Gozmaian, ‘Thomas
Stapleton and Frank Festa.

Stanley Mailman, CSEA New
York City regional attorney, to
go ahead on court action to force

locations to compensate the titles
affected. The papers were served

Buffalo CSEA Office Moves, Expands

BUFFALO — The Buffalo
regional office of the Civil
Service Employees Assn. has
moved to the 13th floor of
of the Statler Hilton Hotel in
downtown Buffalo.

CSEA has rented a two-room
complex. at 1317-1319 Statler
Hilton, with a secretary on duty
from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. weekdays.
The new telephone number is
852-2224.

The former office was too
cramped, forcing CSEA officials
to look for more space.

The office can now be used
for committee meetings and it
continues to provide information
and relay problems to proper
officials.

Niagara Chap.
Calls Impasse
In Pact Talks

(From Leader Correspondent)

LOCKPORT Niagara
County chapter of the Civil
Service Employees Assn.,
has declared an impasse in
its negotiations with the Coun-
ty. CSBA represents 900 white-
collar employees in the Coun-
ty and has reached a deadlock
in negotiating a 1971 contract.

Chapter president William M.
Doyle declared, “We have
reached the point in negotia-~
tions where the County was giv-
ing us the runaround. In our
talks last year, we were fru-
strated in dealing with the en-
ure salary committee. This year,
when we started talks on July
20, we were ‘encouraged that the
County had retained a profes-
sional negotiator who, we were
told, was empowered ‘to speak
jor the County Legislature.

‘We have learned that this
was a facade on the part of the
County. The negotiator has dis-
appeared, not being present at
the last two meetings. When we

Islip Vote In

ISLIP—A revote in a rep-
resentational election in the
Town of Islip last week was
again inclusive.

The Civil Service Employees
‘Assn. was apparently on ‘top un-
til wepresentatives of the ‘State
Public Employment ‘Relations
Board opened and counted two
of seven contested ballots.

Offieials said neither CSEA
nor AFSCME, the competing
union, had gained a majority of
the ballots cast and there was
no winner.

PERB, however, was studying
the remainder of the contested
ballots and they could tip ‘the
scales.

asked the County whom we
should negotiate with, we re-
ceived a repeat of the old story
from 1969: ‘Maybe this spokes-
man, maybe that.’

“We cannot negotiate under
these uneertain _ conditions,”
said Doyle.

OLD FRIENDS — Maxwen Lehman, sight, Professor of

Public Administration at (Long Jsland (University, a former New Mork
City official and editor of Zhe Leader, attended the recent annual
meeting of the Civil Service Employees Asseciation where -he met
Abe Kranker, of Albany, one of his many old friends in CSEA,

Doubt Again

The issue may go to the
courts. Unit president William
Stoothoff asserted that the
opening of the ballots destroyed
the secrecy of the election. “If
they «declare «any winner, it will
probably the .contested in :court,”
Stoothoff predicted. “There are
too many irregularities here.”

The inclusive results mirrored
the outcome of the initial elec-
tion on Sept. 2, in which CSEA
edged AFSCME by one vote as
11 ballots were challenged.

The initial count tallied after
voting last Thursday at Islip
Town Hall gave it to CSEA 108
to 107 with one ballot void but
the PERB opened two of seven
ballots east by employees who
were not on the initial list of
eligible voters, tiping the lead to
AFSCME.

Field representative William
Griffin noted that after the first
election, CSEA had agreed to a
revised list of eligible voters. He
protested the PERB's action in
revising \the revised list.

- BULLETIN -

ALBANY — At Leader press-
time, the Civil Service Employees
Assn. was in the process of filing
a grievance with the State Office
of Employee Relations protest-
ing a decision by the State bud-
get director T, Norman Hurd
which could take away housing
from thousands of employees
living on grounds of State in-
stitutions,

CBEA officials ‘bitterly de-
nounced the arbitrary actions,
terming it flagrant violation of
the CSEA-negotiated contract
sovering these employees and a
severe blow to their merale and
well-being, “Dhe grievance we
are ‘filing immediately is a first
step toward preventing this very
thing from happening,” a CSEA
official declared,

Court Stays Thruway From

~ \mplementing Directive To

Take Away Artes’ Meal Pay

ALBANY—The Civil Service Employees Assn. has ac-
cused the State Thruway Authority wf wiolating the con-
traet it has with its employees «after ithe Authority issued a
directive taking away the moontigy meal allowance from a

substantial number of employ-
ees in travel status.

As a first step, CSEA ‘lawyers
have obtained an order from
State Supreme Court Justice
Russell G. Hunt in Albany ‘block-
ing enforcement of ithe direc-
tive, which went into effect ‘Sep-
tember 14, and compelling the
Authority to “show cause” :as ‘to
why the directive should not ‘be
rescinded.

CSEA officials said the ‘Auth-
ority direetive deals with \the re-
assignment of work locations.
“It’s @ cute maneuver aimed iat
depriving employees of an -allow-
ance to which they are entitled
and which they have been .xe-
ceiving for a number of years,”

‘this long established practice.

‘A CSEA official described the
following -examples of how the
¢hange would work to the det-
riment of 'the employees: an em-
ployee whose official work lo~
cation is ‘the City of Syracuse
but who covers an area on the
Whruway ‘from Syracuse to Utica,
would be entitled to a noonday
meal allowance once he was 35
miles .outsitie the Syracuse city
limits. Under the new change,
his .work ‘location would cover
the Thruway right of way from
Syracuse ito Utica, thus depriving
him of a gmeal allowance, since
he never ‘leaves his work location.

‘The jpetition was filed with
Justice Hunt in behalf of Thom-
as ‘Currie, Albany-based traffic
supervisor and president of
CSEA's Professional, Technical
and Supervisory Thruway chap-
ter, and all other Thruway em-
ployees affected. by the direc-
tive.
