UNITY A H E A D • Newly elected officers who will lead the Civil Service Employees Assn. for the next two years made a show of unity by joining hands after being- sworn into office at the dinner that ended the 61st annual meeting of the Employees Association, held last week in the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel. From left are Dorothy MacTavish, secretary; Jack Gallaghet, treasurer; Hazel Abrams, fifth vice-president; William McGowan, fourth vice-president; Theodore C. Wenzl, president; Richard Tarmey, third vice-president; A Victor Costa, second vice-president, and Thomas McDonough, first vice-president. Winds Of Change Sweeping CSEA By 1973, the name will still be the same but the structure of the Civil Service Employees Assn. will undoubtedly undergo some radical reorganization changes by that time. It's not that there Is revolution in the air but, rather, evolution toward an Employees Association which will become more and more decentralized. A. Victor Costa, chairman of the committee to restructure CSEA. told delegates attending the 61st annual meeting of the J ^ ^.^J C^^n^r ^^^ - RepeatThla!

(Continued on P»ce 8) CSEA In New York City's Waldorf-Astoria Hotel, that the initial proposals presented to delegates "represent the ideas and wishes of our members." committee was able to form the proJ>osals on the basis of membership requests because it had held innumerable meetings around the State. Costa said that the first recommendations reported were the result of "imiversal agreement among our membership on structural changes desirable for CSEA." In essence, the strongest expression was for more local autonomy and the committee proposals would effectuate this a great number of ways. delegates did not give any ^ n a l approval to these first resolutions because, lii some cases, changes in the CSEA constitution are necessary and, in others, financial considerations figure prominently. Basically, the CSEA would be divided into six regions headed by six regional presidents. H i e six regions would have their own ata£t« to perform such were among the major actions dealt with by delegates attending the 61st annual meeting of the Employees Association, held in New York City last week in the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel. Dr. Theodore C. Wenzl, installed for his third term as president of the organization, launched the week-long session by asking that all CSEA members "close ranks and present a unified front in doing battle for public employees in the upcoming session of the State Legislature." Wenzl said that "while we hope fexvently that the wage and price freeze, and other measuras, effectuated by President Nixon get the American economy back in shape, civil servants can only be dismayed by actions throughout the country which Indicate that public employees are continuing to be the m a j o r scapegoats of economy drives." Delegate reaction to salary proposals submitted by R a n dolph V. Jacobs, chairman of the CSEA salary committee, indicated t h a t New York State civil servants plan vigorous action to keep their wages in line with the times. Cheers For Pensions Despite planned action in the Legislature to put a brake on public employee pension improvements, delegates cheered proposals on such improvements presented by Ernest K. Wagner, chairman of the pension committee. One of the most heavily debated topics at the coi^vention was the restructuring of the Employees Association. A. Victor Costa, chairman of a special committee dealing with reorganization, noted t h a t membership demands for more local autono(Continued on Page 16) duties locally as public relations. legal work, and research.

ISc » Counties Hear Explanation Of Taylor Law The flurry of questions raised by new changes In the Taylor Law, particularly those concerning representation and negotiation of contracts, assumed the spotlight at the meeting last week of the County Division, Civil Service Employees Assn. Given special scrutiny were such controversial areas as w h o falls within the newly e s t a b lished c o n f i d e n t i a l / m a n a g e m e n t u n i t ; how is their s t a t u s d e t e r m ined ; how does t h e new f o r m ula of dates a f f e c t t h e " u n c h a l lenged r e p r e s e n t a t i o n " period; by w h a t m e a n s c a n a governm e n t ' s solvency limits be reconciled with t h e legitimate dem a n d s of public employees; w h a t are the new procedures f o r h e a r ings on improper practices a n d carges of "provocation" b r o u g h t In the a f t e r m a t h of a strike. Providing clarifications were two top officials of the S t a t e ' s Public Employment Relations B o a r d : Dr. R o b e r t D. Helsby, P E R B ' s chainman, a n d J e r r y Lefkowitz, chief counsel to t h e Board. Joseph A. Dolan, CSEA's d i rector of local government a f fairs, introduced t h e speakers. He took the occasion to observe t h a t during the last f o u r years, since t h e Taylor Law's inception, 400 disputes have been r e solved. At The Crossroads "This t a u g h t us a lesson In rising a n d meeting t h e needs of public employees. T h e Taylor Law placed us a t t h e crossroads," he noted, adding t h a t b o t h sides were inexperienced in the conduct of negotiations w h e n t h e law began, b u t they learned quickly to work within its f r a m e w o r k , i Helsby provided a broad o u t line of t h e role of PERB, leaving to his couiisel, Lefkowitz, the job of filling in tlie intricate details of the newest S t a t e legislation. T h e P E R B c h a i r m a n said t h a t w h e n it comes to labor relations, "controversy Is t h e n a t u r e of the business" a n d anyone who is t h i n - s k i n n e d h a d better get out quickly. I Helsby quoted contrasting editorials f r o m T h e Civil Service Leader a n d t h e B u f f a l o CourierExpress to point u p how widely perspectives do vary with r e g a r d to t h e Taylor Law. T h e Leader editorial espoused the r i g h t s of employees to bargain in good faith with government and charged t h a t t h e s t a t u t e was i n h e r e n t witli weaknesses t h a t failed to protect t h a t right. T h e Courier-Express took the positlon t h a t the law h a d f o m e n t e d " strikes a n d brought most larger cities to n e a r - b a n k r u p t c y . T h e recent s h i f t of opinion bringing Taylor opponents to call for a m e n d m e n t r a t h e r t h a n repeal was described by Helsby as a h e a r t e n i n g development. He said t h a t the goal of t h e s t a t u t e was to recognize the value of "negotiations in a govermnental structure," which m a n y other states still do not ^ f o r m u l l y sanction. T h e P E R B official went on to describe tluee basic options which states can choose: to do nothing "saying there is no need to negotiate"; to follow the "squeaky wheel concept" a n d placate vocal groups such aa teacliers or f i r e m e n by p a r tial measures; to enact a f u l l scale labor relations law. "New York S t a t e h a s chosen ^ i i e latter course; we have c o n f r o n t e d the Issues a n d seen t h a t all public employees a r e cover- ed a n d protected by one law." H e estimated t h a t about one million civil servants have h a d their r i g h t s a f f i r m e d u n d e r T a y lor. T h e Taylor Law covers almost all bases, he asserted, m e n tioning t h e employee rights specifically g u a r a n t e e d : to n e gotiate; to organize; to be r e p resented; to cope with impasses a n d improper practices in t h e negotiation process. Vast Impact Noting t h a t roughly 900,000 civil servants in the S t a t e havfi been organized by varying e m ployee organizations, Helsby said some 6,000 pacts have been reached under Taylor's provisions, "with only one r e p r e s e n tation strike." A primary focal point of P E R B activities these days, according to Helsby, is t h e designation of t h e "most appropriate u n i t " for t h e diversity of public employees occupations. H e went on to predict t h a t t h e question of breaking a n i m passe would occupy center stage i n labor relations in t h e years ahead. T h e key objective would be to try to get disputes settled without resort to a strike. Besides strike action, Helsby pointed to two alternatives: third-party arbitration and Taylor Law procedures. T h e a r b i t r a t i o n process "is n o t looked on with great favor by either side" and, in fact, preceded t h e well-publicized Montreal police strike since t h e policemen r e jected the terms of the A r b i t r a t or a s u n f a i r . Helsby went on to cite a r e cent resolution by t h e U n i f o r m ed F i r e f i g h t e r s Assn. which would limit t h e a r b i t r a t o r to tlwee positions only: the f i n a l s t a n d s of the employee a n d t h e employer bargaining t e a m s a n d t h e conclusion reached by t h e f a c t - f i n d e r .

LEADERS — Joseph I>uzuruny, ri^ht, of Rennselaer County wait elected chairman of the County Executive Conunittee of the Civil Service Employees Assn. in a nieetincr at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel iu New York City last week. He succeeds S. Samuel Borelly. Niuued m ylce-cliairnian waa Robert Who's " M a n a g e m e n t " ?

T h e issue is sure to be litigated, on a title-by-title basis, suggested Lefkowitz, stressing t h e p r o viso t h a t no employer m a y t a k e the individual action of exclusion. "Only P E R B or one of the m i n i - P E R B S may do so, a n d a f t e r a n unchallenged r e p r e s e n t a t i o n period is over," the counsel emphasized. T h e Legislature h a s also altered t h e laws so t h a t elections c a n n o t be stayed arbitrarily, to give t h e challenging union more time to g a m e r votes when they feel their position is weak.

Also in t h e works is a p r o cedure on u n f a i r labor practice charges t h a t would allow t h e defeated union to seek a review of certification without pressing t h a t u n i o n to violate t h e law as a test. " I m p r o p e r practice" charges are not within the scope of negotiations a n d P E R B h e a r i n g s o n f u t u r e charges will h e r e a f t e r be conducted. T h e expediting p r o cedm-e will now take three to four weeks — a shorter time period — a n d more litigation can be expected.

HEN President Nixon ordered his National wage and price freeze order, no one was harder hit than pubhc employees. Federal workers got an extra hard blow when the President announced that wage increases due them were to be delayed for six months, not the three months ordered for employees in the private sector. This blatant discrimination against civil servants has been continued in other areas, as well. We were happy to observe, in face of this economic war against public employees, that the New York State Civil Service Employees Assn.—representing 200,000 State and local government workers—has refused to bend to such highlevel pressure and mapped an all-out drive to obtain a 15 percent pay raise for State workers in forthcoming negotiations and to press for substantial improvements in retirement benefits. The Employees Association has every right to do battle for these two goals. The railroads, printing and building Industries, some sections of the steel industry and a host of other private employee unions had concluded wage pacts ranging from 32 to 49 percent prior to the freeze. This Is really the area the President was setting up for a major target. He had no call at all to take svich devastating action against public employees whose wage hikes have been nowhere near those gained in the public sector. As for pension improvements, a Legislature which voted Itself such lucrative pensions has no moral right whatsoever to try and stall civil service ambitions for equal treatment. The Civil Service Employees Assn. has mapped out justifiable and economically sound goals and we wish them every success in the coming year.

The Representation Riddle « THE TAYLOR LAW has attempted to provide for stability of employee representation through a procedure of certification and recognition of employee units and unit representatives. There are, however, four problems of adjustment of units. The four problems are as follows: (1) ONE GOVERNMENTAL unit is taken over by another. (2) A GROUP OF employees without a unit properly should be included in another existing unit. (3) A JOB TITLE is abolished after certification. (4) A NEW JOB title is created after certification, • 1. WHEN ONE governmental body takes over the ongoing operations of another governmental body, it has been held that the employee representatives in the government which remains shall be the surviving organi- i zation, and the new employees shall be added to such survivor. In this manner, the accretion doctrine of the private sector was applied to the public sector. The most appropriate unit was determined by using the standard of joint responsibility of the public employer and its employees to serve the public, considering administrative convenience and minimizing the number of negotiating units. Matter of Niagara Frontier Transportation Authority, 3 PERB 4020. | THIS DECISION leaves open the problem of unit determination if instead of a merger, governmental operations are spun off to a new governmental entity such as a special district or public authority, cf. 2 PERB 5007. j ; ' ^ 2. THE SITUATION where a group of employees who are not in any unit should be most appropriately in an existing overall unit, has been considered by State PERB. The Board has taken the position that the non-unit em ployees cannot be added to the existing unit because th would violate the existing representative's right to exclusive and unchallenged recognition. THUS, THE NON-UNIT employees must wait until the period of unchallenged representation status expires and then file a timely petition for certification into this most appropriate unit before the case can properly be brought before PERB. Matter of Great Neck Board of / Education, 4 PERB 3017. A CONTRARY position was taken by a hearing officer of Nassau County PERB with regard to part-time facultj^^ in Nassau Community College. His position was that In balancing the employees' right to representation against the employee organization's right to unchallenged recognition, that the non-unit employees should immediately be added to the existing unit. THE EMPLOYEE organization would be required to ) represent such employees even though it did not desire to have them in the unit. He pointed out that if the employee representative did not properly represent the employees, then the County, under PERB rules, could petition for an immediate decertification on the basis of abandon^ ment, and in any case, the issue of representation coultt be decided at an election held when the existing employee representative lost its period of unchallenged recognition. 3. MOST RECOGNITION and certifications refer to employees by civil service titles rather than job descriptions. It is not uncommon during the period of unchallenged recognition that titles are changed. The change may be either by elimination of the job or the job is placed under a new and comparable title. There are no reported decisions in this situation. IT WOULD APPEAR that since there is no substantlv? change, and that PERB is not in any way bound by civil service titles, that a unilateral petition to PERB by either the employer or the employee organization should be permitted to amend the certification. 4. DURING THE PERIOD of unchallenged recognition, new jobs may be created. There are no repwrted decisions on this subject.

Ernest K. Wagner, chairman of the pension committee, presented the committee report to the delegates assembled in the Main Ballroom of the WaldorfAstoria Hotel in New York City. "The committee made every effort," Wagner explained, "to find items which would be of greatest benefit to the majority of our members.

He also explained t h a t a commission has been created by the Governor to study public employee pension a n d retii'ement systems. " I t is within the power of this commission," Wagner pointed out, "to make recommendations to the Governor and the Legislature concerning pension benefits for public employees. The CSEA pension committee feels t h a t the recommendations of this commission shall have no effect upon our collective bargaining right or dem a n d s made through tlaat same process."

Political Action Committee Endorses Hopefuls UTICA—The CSEA's Oneida County chapter, following the advice of the Central Region Political Action Task Force, has made four endorsements in the primary elections this week, with a promise of more to follow for the general elections on Nov. 2, T a n l a Cook, chairman of the committee, said the endorsements were made on the basis of past voting records and achievements of the candidates in view of the goals and objectives of public employees. Louis S u n d e r h a f t , piesldent of the Oneida County chapter, said he was very pleased to see the chapter taking the initiative in Oneida Promotion (Continued from Page 8) this so much a promotion as it is a recognition for his years of exeinplary service to tlie Motor Vehicle Bureau. Westcott Is the best example of a m a n deserving a promotion through personal effort t h a t I know of." Westcott's promotion is on a provisional basis pending a Civil Service examination for the vacancy. The position is a salary grade-16 job with a salary range of $7,500 to $9,100 annually.

S u n d e r h a f t i n dicated t h a t the chapter will be taking on an increasingly active roll In local and State politics. T h e action is a follow-through of recommendations made to all of the chapters in the Central Confei-ence by the task force. Miss Cook hopes t h a t other chapters will follow the lead of Oneida County in becoming politically active. She said, ". . . if public employees are to achieve benefits equal to those available to people working for private Industry, we are going to have to deal more firmly with State and local legislatures. If we are going to be successful in these dealings, we are going to have to have people in those law-making bodies who are sensitive to the special needs of public employees." The political action committee has been studying the Issue of political endorsements since it was formed, about a month before the deadline set for the June 16 Statewide strike. The committee is preparing for next year's State legislative elections by compiling voting recoids on each of the assemblymen and senators on those issues critical to public employees.

These basic benefits require NO complicated claim forms. NO deductibles. NO co-insurance. NO out-of-pocket expenses. NO lengthly wait to receive back money that you have already paid out. 2 H.I.P. provides fully prepaid doctor benefits for maternity. NO other health plan in New York fully insures you for all of the medical care that you require from a qualified Obstetrician in and out of the hospital during your pregnancy, delivery and following delivery. 3 4 S 'H.I.P. provides you with complete specialist services both in your doc- tor's office and in the hospital for as long as the specialist services are medicdly needed. H.I.P.'S Special Service program arranges for fully prepaid medical care if a rare and costly illness should strike. Coverage under this outstanding benefit pays for brain surgery, open-heart surgery and other complex operations and procedures that often overwhelm a family with catastrophic medical bills, even when there is some kind of added coverage. H.I.P.'s Automated Multiphasic Health Testing Center for the early detection of disease provides an extensive health test for all new adult members of H.I.P. Each of the many tests is processed by modern laboratory equipment, advanced computers and skilled health personnel. The tests provide your doctor with valuable medical information about you which he needs to help keep you in good health. 6 A L B A N Y — W i l l i a m J.

(Stories on this item and pension improvements appear elsewhere In this edition.) Salary Report At Leader presstime, delegates were still meeting on resolutions t h a t will affect the legislative and Internal programs of CSEA dj P H cc ft; o• < w ^ ct: CJ tii CJ R A N D O L P H V. J A C O B S and these will be reported on next week. Because of the Importance of the stance on salaries, the fuU report of Jacobs' committee follows: " T h e salary program of the Civil Service Employees Association, Inc. Is one which calls fo»r a salary level for all State e m ployees which will provide an average salary at least equivalent to t h e average earnings of non-State employees within New York S t a t e a n d result in tive maintenance of a n adequate standard of living. I n order to acoompllsli this, two factors are hlglaly significant and siiould be used as gxildelines in determitiIng what our salary demand should be for State employees this year. These factors are: (I) Tl»e relationslilp between State salaries and non-State government salaries and wages, and (2) Tlie Increase in living costs which must be considered, above and beyond other salary relationships, in order to maintain an adequate s t a n d a r d of liviuti. "At its meetings, your salary committee h a s reviewed factual data measuring both of t^u?^&e factors which h a s resulted In recommendation lA below. Your committee also considered and reviewed other salary inequities wlilch have evolved over the past few years and h a s incorporated recommendations to resolve tliece Inequities In t h e following lUcIng. lA—A 15 percent across-theboard salary Increase for all State employees represented by the CSEL\. m well as those designated dis mAnogement - conf Idea tlal. IB—Include in a negotiated salary agreement a cost of living escalator clause based on the New YorkNortheastern New Jersey Consumer Price Index covering all items (1967 equals 100) 1971 revision published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U. S. Department of Labor. We recommend t h a t the escalator clause be computed on index-salary relationships using the index for the m o n t h during which our contract commences as t h e base index. Adjustments should be made semi-annually on April 1 and . October 1 of each fiscal year. IC—(Deleted) In order to provide a take-home pay increase of at least 5.2 percent, the CSEA should sponsor legislation or negotiate with the administration to sponsor legislation which would permit and result in a contractual agreement wherein the State would pay the employee's share of the FICA payroll tax. ID—That the CSEA take all necessary steps to g u a r a n tee the payment of all increments contained In t h e State salary schedule to all employees by removing present statutory limitations which have caused a loss of Increments because of negotiated f l a t dollar minimum pay increases. IE—Provide an additional longevity increment for each five years of service a f t e r a n employee h a s reached the maximum f i f t h - y e a r rate) of his salary grade. IP—Continue and increase to $6,5(>0 the minimmn a n nual salary for all S t a t e employees who have completed 26 bi-weekly payroll periods of service in full pay status. IG—Continue and Increase the locational pay differential for the nine counties In the Metropolitan New York Area and Monroe County to $500 annually, extending this benefit to part-time employees. IH—Continue and Increase the present inconvenience pay differential to $600 a n n u ally, extending this benefit to part-time employees. II—Provide severance pay to employees with one or more years of conthiued service whose employment Is terminated because of the abolition of positions as" follows, in addition to any accrued vacation pay t h a t may be owing to the employee: One year through five years —4 weeks pay Six years through ten years —8 weeks pay Eleven years or more —12 weeks pay Also provide t h a t an employee upon retirement shall be granted severance pay on the basis of one day of severance pay for each unused day of sick leave. Severance pay shall be computed on t h e basis of work days rather tlian calendar days. IJ—Negotiate an agreement t h a t the State will negotiate salary m a t t e r s which would apply to specific groups of State employees or a specific situation on a bargaining unit basis — such as hazardous pay for certain occupations, additional pay for academic achievement, addl 11 o n a 1 pay for variations in dollar volume of contracts supervised by engineers, etc. Final Review The committee reconvened on Sept. 8 to review its final report to the delegates and evaluate t h e effect of President Nixon's Wage-Price Freeze on public employee salaries generally and its recommendations in particular. The committee noted t h a t Its recommendations are for full implementation on April 1, 1972. The contracts between the S t a t e and CSEA expire on M a r c h 31, 1972. The 13'/2 percent compounded two-year increase, with a $1,275 across-the-board minimum, provided by those contracts currently in effect, h a s been fully realized and is u n a f fected by the President's freeze of wages. T h e committee's proposals are similarly not affected by the 90-day moratorium on wage increases, as they would not be implemented imtil April 1, 1972, a date f a r beyond the expiration of the 90-day period. "Dr. Wenzl h a s communicated with Secretary of t h e Treasury John B. Connally a n d the Director of the President's Cost-ofLivlng Council, William I. C?reener, to insure adequate consideration of proposals to protect our membership against t h e continuance of u n j u s t and discriminatory controls over S t a t e employee salaries, as well as a provision for exemption for local government employees, against whom t h e freeze has worked a n u n j u s t and unfair hardship. "The committee feels t h a t Its proposals are therefore fully consistent with the 90-day order of the President currently in effect and any fairly and justly taken f u t u r e action." Wenzi Reminds Aides MgrntyConfidential Notices Unofficial ALBANY — Dr. Theodore C. Wenzl, Statewide president of the Civil Service Employees Assn., said last week that Administration representatives have reportedly "misled many CSEA members in the m a t t e r of the proposed designation of certain State employees as 'management and confidential,' thus removing them from tlieir present bargaining units. Many of our people have been advised to discontinue membership Immediately, because the State nas incorrectly told them that they will soon be ineligible. Wenzl emphasized the fact that "tliere is no need for any CSEA member to discontinue membership at this time. This matter is f a r from closed, and 1( i t quite possible t h a t motit of VICTORY — Comptroller Arthur Levitt, left, and Attorney General Louis Lefkowitz, guests at the dinner that ended the annual meeting of CSEA last week, help Theodore C. Wenzl celebrate his victory in winning a third term as CSEA president. TABLE TALK — Jen-y Finkelstein, left, publisher of The Leader, and Robert D. Helsby, chairman of the State Public Employment Relations Board, enjoyed an amiable conversation while dinner guests of CSEA and the installation banquet in the Waldorf- ^ ^ Astoria Hotel last week. DAIS GUESTS Mrs. Ersa Poston, right, president of the state Civil Service Commission, and Solomon Bendet, outgoing CSEA second vice-president, were dinner partners on the dais at the closing banquet of CSEA's annual meeting last week. those who have been 'unofficially,' notified of their change in designation will in f a c t remain in their present unit. "We always regret the loss of anjr member," he continued, "and It would certainly be a shame to lose a member against his will when no such loss is necessary." Wenzl stated that CSEA is taking legal action against the State to declare unconstitutional the Taylor Law amendments, under which the management and confidential designations would take place. He assured all CSEA members t h a t theUbargaining status remains the same and will remain the same —unless the courts decide oUierwlie." Riot At Attica (Continued from Page 1) hostages are civilian employees represented by CSEA. Wenzl a t tributed much of the recent trouble In State prisons to the Division of the Budget, which lias withheld the funds necessary for prison reform programs. Increased staff and general upgrading of physical facilities, "The-Division of the Budget saw fit to ignore tlie riot at Auburn last Nov. 5, and cut t h e Correctional Services budget. We can only view this new disaster as the result of a regrettably negligent attitude on t h e Division. Maybe this appalling situation at Attica will open their eyes."
