What Employees Should Know
l y THEODORE lECKER
Even if you have filled out your
civil service application form com ­
pletely, your application m ay be
disapproved because you lack
m in im u m tra in in g a n d experience
requirem ents. If you believe this
is due to a m istake, you should
c o n ta c t th e civil service agency
Im m ediately, to give it a n oppor­
tu n ity to rectify th e error. I f you
w ait u n til a fte r th e exam ination
is held, your delay m ay b a r you
from an y consideration.
Som etim es, an ap p lican t who Is
tu rn e d down h ears th a t someone
else who is repu ted to have no
g re a te r tra in in g and experience
h as been accepted for th e exam in ­
ation. If su ch info rm atio n comes
to your a tte n tio n you m ust realize
th a t th e circum stances In your
case a n d In h is m ay h ave been
different.
Special C ircum stances
In th e first place, you m ay n o t
be aw are of a ll th e oth er c a n d i­
d a te ’s tra in in g an d experience.
Secondly, you m ay n o t be aw are
of liberal policies w hich m ay e n ­
title h im to credit for ce rtain
, types of experience. F or exam ple,
a can d id a te whose civilian ex­
perience was in terru p te d by m ili­
ta ry service m ay be trea te d by th e
civil service agency as if his
civilian experience h a d continu ed
w ithou t such interru p tio n . A ccord­
ingly, an ac co u n tan t who seived
foui- years as cook In th e Arm y
m a y be credited w ith four years of
th e type of “a c c o u n ta n t” experi­
ence h e h a d before he entered th e
Army. Of course. If th e m ilita ry
experience is more valuable for th e
p a rtic u la r job th e ap p lican t now
seeks, he will be credited w ith
such m ilitary experience.
Again, althoug h o rdinary te m p ­
orary service in a civil service job
for w hich app o in tm en t Is sought
is n o t usually credited, te m p o r­
ary w ar em ergency an d m ilitary
su b stitu te experience m ay be
credited for open com petitive ex­
am inations. Som e jvu’isdictions
cre d it provisional service fo r open
com petitive exam inations u p to
th e legal te rm of such service. T he
g ran tin g of credit fo r provisional
service on prom otion e x a m in a­
tions, however. Is specifically p ro ­
hib ited by Section 16 of th e Civtl
Service Law.
Nam e N am es
B ut, if th e o th e r caA didate's
experience is actually know n to
you an d doesn’t fall u n d er th e
special cases referre d to, t* e n h is
approval m ay be a m istak e or th e
resu lt of exaggeration of experi­
ence. I n eith er case your civil
service agency will be pleased to
h e a r from you prom ptly. Even
th o u g h it m ay n o t re su lt in th e
approval of your application. It
will give th e agency a n o th e r
chan ce to review his. O n th e o th e r
h a n d , th is in fo rm atio n oould lead
to th e approval of your a p p lica­
tion. H ere is w<h«.t a Judge pointed
o u t in a case decided la te la s t
y ear:
“ W hile petitioner m ay n o t show
h is own qualifications by show ­
ing lack of qualification in th e in ­
cum bent, th e question need n o i
be decided here. I t m ay be t h a t on
a tria l h e m ight be p erm itted to

in cum bent w ere accepted as m e e t­
ing th e reK]uired quallfloiations

qualifications m et such req u ire­
m en ts.” (M allen v M orton, — App.
Div. — 12/10/48 N.Y.L.J. p 1481
col 6)
Som etim es, an ap p lican t who is
disapproved m ay com plain th a t
others who h a d less tra in in g a n d
experience were approved, b u t m ay
fail to m ention the nam es of th e
o th e r candidates. I t Is u n fa ir to
expect your civil service agency
eith er to approve your application
on such sta te m e n t or to review all

T H E G U A R D IA N OF M E R IT
ext to the Governor, the most important State Office
from the viewpoint of the Public Employee is the Civil
Service Commission, the official champion of the Merit and
Fitness System in Government.
The duties of the Civil Service Commission have grown
with the years until its destiny is evident. It is the public
equivalent of the vice president in charge of personnel in
private industry, probably the most important of the private
vice presidencies. It is, under the Governor, the supreme
central authority on personnel policies, the rule maker on
etiquette, manners, behavior, morale and work habits of all
public employees. It is the central recruitment agency, the
court of employee appeals, the training center for employees
and the chief coordinator in the biggest business in the
State.
Two Alternatives
I have said that the future destiny of the civil service is
evident. I should perhaps say that the choice rests between
two possible alternative paths, one of which leads to perdi­
tion and the other to a better and happier State.
The path to perdition is broad and easy, and many there
be who desire to pursue it. Political patronage, the spoils
system, and overmuch authority or self-rule by departments,
bureaus and offices will destroy any real civil service and
bring the return of anarchy in government.
The straight and narrow path to civil service efficiency
rests upon the following principles.
Civil Service A uthority
The Civil Service Commission must have and exercise the
authority necessary to bring uniform practices and methods
to all the employees, offices and subdivisions of the state.
Local and departmental autonomy must be limited to allow
the entire civil service to be one service, to be governed by;
equal laws, rules, regulations and practices. The Commis­
sion must be the supreme authority under the law on all
matters relating to personnel.
The Commission must become the chief supporter and
champion of the merit system. It must be the chief voice
of the career and fitness principles. It must join with the
organized employees to gain the necessary financial and
public support for the great plan of public management
which it administers.
Can*t Serve Two Masters
No man and no Commission — and no Governor — can
serve two masters. Civil Service cannot mix with patronage
and spoils and survive. Every public official makes a decision
every day, and unfortunately the record is often a betrayal
of the guiding principle of good government, that special
privilege has no part or place in public affairs.
The Governor is confronted with grave decisions about
his civil service. May he have wisdom and courage in
making them.

H earings on th e NYC C areer
a n d P ay P lan reveal two th in g s:
<1) th a t personnel conditions in
City D epartm ents are so bad th a t
a reclassification is « een to be
com pletely necessary; (2) t h a t
employees are bringing to th e
h earin g s d a ta w hich should p ro p ­
erly go to th e C areer a n d S ala ry
B o ard itself, once it is se t up.
A th ird fa c t is also a p p a re n t: A
n u m b er of th e speakers, while o u t­
lining evils and abuses w hich only
a C areer an d S alary P la n could
correct, ask th a t such a p la n be
p u t in effect im m ediately.
T hese employees do n o t realize
t h a t hun d red s — probably th o u s­
an d s—of inequities exist in City
service, such as th e ones th e y
them selves describe; th a t it w ould
be Impossible to p u t th e new p la n
in to effect u n til all th e fac ts are
g ath ered on all categories.
I t is necessary, for exam ple, to
d eterm ine not only w here no p ro p ­
e r prom otion lines exist, b u t to
set up new prom otion lines t h a t
will offer a fa ir ch ance of a d ­
vancem ent— and these lines will
h ave to be m eshed to fit in w ith
th e entire City service.
I t is necessary to d eterm in e
ju s t w h at th e duties of a job are
—th e duties of thousands of jobs;
for th e re is no question, as was
bro u g h t out a t th e hearings, t h a t
laborers are working as recep­
tionists, clerks as ad m in istra to rs,
sewer m en as bricklayers. T h o u ­
sands of such stories ca n be told
of th e City service. All of th e m
will have to be investigated. E m ­
ployee representatives a t th e h e a r ­
ings told of unequal pay fo r equal
work, of people in th re e or m ore
titles doing th e sam e w ork a t d if­
fe re n t salaries, and gave in general
a picture of low m orale.
T h e ta sk of probing. Interview ­
ing, com paring jobs, m aking sure
t h a t employees doing highergrade work get h ig h e r-g rad e sa l­
aries—this is th e responsibility of
th e Career and S alary study. P re s­
id e n t Joseph A. M acN am ara of
th e Clvj|l Service CommissRon,
who w ith Budget D irector T h o m ­
as J. P atterson, is sitting in on th e
h earing, asked employees to u n ­
d ersta n d th is fact.
P atterso n Defines Scope
Some employees confuse th e
C areer a n d P ay P lan w ith u p ­
grading, an d th e re is evidence
of some cases being deliberately
Inculculated. B u t even if every
City job were upgraded, th e p res­
e n t injustices would still re m a in —
higher-g rad e employees
would
still, in m ore th a n one case, be
Bupervised by low er-grade ones;
th e City would still have its p re s­
e n t hodge-podge of jo b -titles; o u tof-title work would still be r a m ­
p a n t: lack of prom otion oppor­
tu n itie s would still be th e sam e
as now ; thousands of employees
would still be unable to tell you

A billion-dollar business needs m odem management p*

N ew York City’s classification for its employees dates b
to the nineties.
Employees suffer in several ways:
(a) Employees doing the same work get different ja
of pay.
(b) Employees getting the same pay do different gra
of work.
(c) Supervisors often get less than the men they sui
vise.
( d ) Lines of promotion are not clearly outlined, as tj
should be to give a person reason to work for
future.
The city suffers because it cannot budget intelligently
long as its job classification is a hodgepodge of makesh
For example:
(a) No single document is readily available that gi
job duties for thousands of city titles.
( b ) Many different titles are used for positions invo
ing identical work. ( “Inspector of Fuel” ;
spector of Supplies” ; “Inspector of Fuel
Supplies” ; and “Inspector of Fuels, Supplies, etc
(c) Employees are promoted in grade but continue w
no change in duties or responsibility.
'
( d ) Frequently no relation exists between the dut
performed by subordinates and the title of
supervisor.
(e) A large number of men in the uniformed for
have been assigned to “special details” and are
performing the work for which they are qualifi
examined, trained and paid.

now receiving. Any change of pay will be upward. Ma]
O’Dwyer has given his personal word for that. Every otl
supporter of the plan, too, insists upon the requirem
that no city worker’s pay shall be reduced.
What the plan w ill do is safeguard the worker by ass
ing him of
(a) an adequate and just wage for the work he is doi
(b) equal pay for equal work,
(c) a clear description of the duties of his job,
(d) a plain line of promotion ahead.
For the City and the Taxpayers
(a) It will end w asteful guesswork in administration,
department head will be able to tell what duties are p
formed by his subordinates and whether a given task
handled by too many or too few employees. Today he cam
(b) It will make budgeting more accurate. A corr
estimate of the costs of any governmental activity will
aided by a clear understanding of what each employee
qualified to do and by the establishment of job descriptii
that fit existing conditions.
(c) It will save the city money by reducing out-of-t
work. For instance, it will reduce the large number of ca
in which a highly trained uniformed man is assigned
work that m ight be more efficiently performed by a skil
typist or a clerk.
To sum it up, the modern Career and Pay Plan sta^

F e d e ra l
By THEODORE J. SAVATH
A lthough m ost federal employees
generally are aw are of th e p ro ­
visions of th e law establishing
th e ir en titlem e n t to an n u al or sick
leave, th e re are several regulations
p erta in in g to leave w hich are little
know n to employees.
W hile F ederal employees ea rn
a n d are cred ited with 26 days of
a n n u a l leave for each calen d ar
year, th e g ran tin g of such leave is
prescribed by th e agency and not
a t th e whim or desire of an em ­
ployee. However, w hen a n em ­
ploye is reduced in force or about
to be placed on furlough, he shall
be gran ted a n n u a l leave upon his
request p rior to his furlough.
A nnual leave m ay be ac cu m u lat­
ed an d c a rrie d forw ard for use in
succeeding years u n til it totals
n o t exceeding 60 days. Leave is
also g ran te d w hen a n employee is
ab sen t fro m d u ty as a witness in
court for th e G overnm ent, or for
ju ry d u ty In any court. However,
such “leave” is n o t charged against
a n n u a l leave bu t m erely recorded
as "court leave."
Sickness During: A nnual Leave
I f sickness occurs w ithin a
period of a n n u a l leave an d lasts
five or m ore consecutive work
days, th e period of illness m ay be
charged as sick leave, an d th e
charge ag ain st an n u a l leave re ­
duced accordingly. A pplication for
such sub stitu tio n of sick leave for
an n u a l leave shall be m ade w ithin
two days a f te r re tu rn to duty, and
shall be supported by a medical
certificate or o ther evidence a d ­
m inistratively acceptable.
A nnual leave will also accrue to
th e benefit of an employee while
such employee is on a leave w ith
pay sta tu s, provided h e retum is
to duty. However, failu re to r e ­
tu rn to d u ty for ireasons oth er
th a n d ea th or disability, re tire ­
m en t for disability, or reduction
In force, will b a r th e employee
from earn ed leave acciuedu.
E m p lo y e e
P e rm a n e n t employees earn and
are credited w ith sick leave a t th e
r a te of IVi days per calen d ar
m onth w hich m ay be credited a t
tlie beginning of th e m o n th or
com m encing a t th e first pay period
following th e first day of th e
m onth. T he m inim um accrual an d
credit for sick leave shall be one
hour an d th e m inim um charge for
such leave also is one hour.
Case of T em porary Employees
T em p o rary employees ea rn and
are cred ited w ith 1 V4 days of sick
leave fo r each full continuous
m o n th of service.
Sick leave is cum ulative an d is
available for fu tu re use w ith th e
provision t h a t th e balance to th e
cred it of any employee a t th e end
of an y m onth, shall n o t exceed
90 days.
Sick leave is g ran te d for sick­
ness, injurj^ or pregnancy a n d co n­
finem ent, ^or m edical, d e n ta l or
optical ex am in atio n or trea tm e n t.
W hen a m em ber of th e im m ediate
fam ily of th e employee h a s a
contagious disease, a n d presence
of th e em ployee a t w ork would
jeopardize tiie h e a lth of others,
sick leave m ay be granted.
W here circiun stances beyond th e
control of employee necessitate
absence from w ork less th a n 30
m inutes, or resu lt in emplojree’s
tard iness, su ch absence o r ta r d i­
ness m ay be excused. I n th e event
t h a t th is privilege is abused, it
is h a n d le d adm inistratively by a
charge ag a in st a n n u a l leave.
W ith th e exception of P ost o f­
fice D e p a rtm e n t field service,
teachers an d lib rarian s of th e
jjublic schools of D istrict of Coliun3ia, and Police an d F ire D ep a rt­

I have been appointed a Substi­

S u b stitu te Clerks usually s ta rt
work a t about 6 p.m. R arely, afte r
working in th e post oflice, does
one find openings on earlier tours,
sucli as 1 p.m. These are filled
by seniority. I t will be years be­
fore you get th e day tour.
S u b stitu te Clerks work six days
a week an d tlie post office su p er­
visors try to provide 48 hours of
work a week. However, because of
th e sum m er let-down, 6*^ to 8
hours u day prevail. If overtim e is
required, th e employee m ust work
as n u i c l i as th e supervisors re ­
quire. I t takes a good excuse to
get out of working overtime.
T he postal worker will find it

TIm CommlsstMi has written to
various departments in which pro­
visional Auto Bnginemen are said
to be employed despite the exist­

of th President of Manhattan ex­
plained that the provisionals were
on the payroll because roundins
out their accrued annual leave, and
that as soon as that was up, cer­
tified eligibles would

during th e p a s t few m o n th s h ave

if P resid en t Joseph A. M cN am ara,
of th e NYC Commission, ca n p e r­
suade th e p ow ers-that-be. Since
a list h a s a m axim um legal life
of fo u r years, th e a rra n g e m e n t
would sp a re anybody th e disgust
of having th e list “die on h im ”.
Also, th e list m ig h t be exhausted

P
ublic employees are entitled to work in air-cooled offices
during sw eltering weather. The LE A D ER has interviewed
NYC employees who were let off earlier on several hot days
and they said that they’d rather work the full day under
air-conditioning than the shorter period in discomfort. It*s
an idea w orth consideration by Federal, State and City
administrations, especially as one finds air-conditioning in
public officials* own offices. So w hat’s wrong w ith giving
the saine break to the little fellow s?
The m ain consideration is to treat the employees as they
deserve and prefer. There would be no net expense in­
volved. The hours not worked surely don’t produce results.
Those worked under m ost trying conditions can’t be ex­
pected even to approximate full productivity.
In these midsummer dog aays offices close an hour or
more earlier. Take the case of liie NYC Civil Service Com­
m ission, w ith only a couple of hundred employees. I f there
are five unbearable successive days during the work week,
there go 1,000 man-hours o f production. Exam papers go un­
graded, lists are delayed, the whole operation suffers, and all
this costs the City money. The City has 160,000 employees,
and if the assumption w ere applied throughout, there’d be
800,000 man-hours lost in a week. That’s just mathematical
ratio, not actuality, of course, because the Police and Fire
Department’s uniformed forces, the Sanitation Men, doctors,
nurses, dentists and the like, go on undiminished schedule,
but the idea of the enormity is there, and a visualization of
the possibilities o f em ployee satisfaction.
F e d e r a l P o lic y i n D e g r e e s
The Federal Government doesn’t recognize employee dis­
com fort because of the heat as a reason for excusal from
work, or “dism issal,” as the official order has it. “Employees
in quarters reasonably adapted to hot weather should re­
main at work,” says a W hite House memorandum, “even
though they are experiencing discom fort.” This is one case
w here the W hite House really puts on the heat!
The W hite House policy, which all branches of the U. S.
government are expected to follow, provides that there
shall be no group dismissals because of hot weather, except
under one of the following conditions, when they are op­
tional only:
“90 degree temperature and 70 per cent humidity; 91
degrees and 68 per cent; 92 and 63; 94 and 55; 95 and 50;
96 and 45; 97 and 40; 98 and 38; 99 and 34, and finally,
100 degrees and 30 per cent hum idity.”
That applies if there’s no air-conditioning. But who said
that there must be none and that discomfort is to be coun­
tenanced when it can be prevented? There’s no better time
than now, before the summer disappears, to get the airconditioning installed.
