Of Intimidation By Thruway
ALBANY—^The Board of Directors of the
Civil Service Employees Assn. last week gave
quick and unanimous approval to a motion
authorizing Thruway CSEA chapter presidents to "take any action they feel is necessary" to fight the insubordination charges
recently brought against Vito Dandreano,
Thruway representative on the Board.
T h e Board condemned the action of the
Thruway Authority which lodged the disciplinary charges against Dandreano earlier
this month. Dandreano, the Authority alleged, refused to stop talking to employees
and leave the premises of the Nyack m a i n tenance barn during the recent representation election campaign against the United
Thruway Union.

vice-president Thomas McDonough, charg'In

The Thruway chapter presidents, met in
Albany prior to the Board meeting and
vowed to "fight with every available weapon
at their disposal" to have the charges
against Dandreano dismissed.
I n addition to filing a n improper labor
practice charge, and a contract grievance,
CSEA h a s also called for an immediate
meeting with R. Burdell Bixby, chairman
of the Authority.
"It's a clear-cui case of intimidation and
harassment and a threat to unionism and
job security," said Theodore C. Wenzl, CSEA
president. "We must fight this action which
poses a threat to the future of every e m ployee we represent."

U.S. Will Hire
400 Engineers
As Trainees
The Federal Government Is
making plans to hire up to
400 young engineers for a
year-long internship
program recently announced by the
White House.
The internships. In Federallyfunded labs throughout the country, are designed to "expose the
trainees to both problems and
capalDilities of government research and development."
Trainees will be granted $7,000
for the year by the government,
and the participating laboratories are i-equlred to match this
amount in either cash or research
support.
Applications
should be filed directly, at the
Federally-financed labs.
The program Is aimed at unemployed scientists and engineers under 30 with advanced
degrees. The National Science
Foundation, which is administering the internships, has reported a 5.3 percent unemployment
rate for this group.

Protecting The Civil
Service Merit System
public officials slowly are gaining public
RESPONSIBLE
support in their fight against higher taxes through the
questionable practice of using consultants in place of career
civil servants.
Further, those who would frustrate the civil service
system through the guise of public corporations which do
not hire civil service employees, are being discovered and
investigated.
Assemblyman Andrew Stein of Manhattan started the
ball rolling in the State Legislature when he called for full
disclosure on consultant contracts.
On the New York City level, and sure to spread to
other governmental units in the State, City Council President Sanford Garelik — himself a product of the Career
Civil Service Merit System — is calling attention to the
gradual return to the spoils system through these guises.
Garelik is calling for more testing — not less — with
only top management such as commissioners and administrators as the ones legally able to escape the checks and
balances which the merit s^ otam provides.
The dangers of these incursions into the career service
have been voiced quite strongly by the Civil Service Employees Assn.'s watchdog committee on the test procedures
and its chairman, Samuel Grossfield of Rochester.
Others are joining the fight. The heads of the unif o r m e d police and fire unions in N e w York City have long
been heard by the public. They, too, have been watching
tor any diminution of requirements f o r civil service jobs
or any potential "back door" by which unqualified people
can enter the proud ranks of civil service.
T h e career merit system of civil service has been in
existence f o r j u s t short of a century. It replaced the political ladder w i t h a career ladder under which the most
qualified and dedicated were rewarded with the top jobs.

Mail Applicants —
E a r l y Filing Proviso
While it i s true that civil service may not be the
perfect system, it is thousands of miles ahead of the spoils
s y s t e m where political contributions — financial or otherw i s e — were the yardstick of fitness f o r a position and a
paycheck.
Those who choose to mall ki
their completed appllcatloni for
various City titles had better observe the early filing rule—or
risk possible voiding of the entry.
W e urge those in public l i f e who are fighting against
these attempts to return to the spoils system to continue
their fight and wish them Godspeed. W e know that the
t a x p a y i n g public, including the civil service taxpayers, will
be the w i n n e r s in the end.
The Department of Personnel
says that such mailed ajwUcatlons must be postmarked one
week in advance of the filing
date. For further Information,
phone that agency at &66-t700.
Civil Service
Law & You
By R I C H A R D G A B A
mill
Mr. Gaba is a member of the New York State Bar and chairman of the Labor Law Committee of the Nassau County Bar Assn.
Management — Confidential
(Second of Four-Part Article)
2. Inclusion of managerial a n d confidential employees
in negotiating units.
CHAPTERS 503 and 504 of the laws of 1971 amended
section 201(7) of the CSL to so exclude such managerial or
confidential employees from the provisions of the Taylor
Law except the prohibition against strikes. The Taylor Law,
as originally enacted, did contemplate some exclusions. The
Taylor committee report referred to such excluded personnel as "executives," but the law required a case by case
clarification of this exclusion.
IN DETERMINING What are the most appropriate n e gotiating units, PERB has never decided what public e m ployees are not entitled to be in a negotiating unit and represented by a n employee organization. In addition, it used
a pyramid approach starting with rank-and-file employees,
and narrowing at the top strata of m a n a g e m e n t or executive personnel. At the top strata level were personnel called
m a n a g e m e n t or executives. PERB deferred ruling on whether
or not such personnel were entitled to be in a negotiating
unit.
NEVERTHELESS, an examination of PERB decisions
discloses that on at least one occasion it did certify a "management" unit. On the other hand, employees with an "affinity with management" were not placed in any negotiating
unit. Moving down the strata in this pyramid, the decisions
disclose more consistent granting of employees' right to
be in negotiating units and represented by employee organizations. Thus, "middle management," "supervisor" and
"rank-and-file" units were certified.
WITH REGARD to confidential employees, the decisions
of PERB disclose that it also deferred decision as to whether
they could be in a negotiating unit and represented by a n
employee organization.
THUS, IT CAN be said that the new law makes no substantial change with regard to the inclusion of personnel
deemed managerial and confidential in negotiating units.
The critical determination, therefore, is not the right of
representation under the Taylor Law—a right never e n joyed—but rather the scope of such exclusion.
3. Definition of managerial and confidential employees.
THE THIRD question presented by the new law concerns the definition of managerial and confidential e m ployees. Section 201(7) of CSL defines managerial employees
as those who (a) "formulate policy" or "may reasonably
be required" to "assist" the employer in the (b) "preparation for and conduct of collective negotiations" (c) have
a major role in "administration of collectively negotiated
agreements" or (d) "have a major role in personnel a d m i n istration." The legislative Intent expressly provided in the
new law states it is intended to "reflect the extent to which
a public employer h a s from time to time organized itself
for collective negotiations. It Is not the intention of the
Legislature to destroy existing employer-employee negotiating units composed of principals or other school administrators who do n o t formulate policy or who do not have a
significant role in employee relations . . . An examination
of PERB decisions will disclose the major changes this new
law has effectuated.
PERB HAD defined "executives" as persons "who have It
within their authority to negotiate about the working rules,
the provision of facilities, services, equipment, and other
aspects of the working environment not involving major e x penditures with respect to such Items. They are also likely
to be the employers with respect to the administration and
supervision of working routines and relationships, the h a n d ling of grievances, and the administration of discipline." It
Is most probable that these executive personnel are those
who will be covered under the new exclusions as those "who
formulate policy." This Is particularly true since the statute

this extra protection.
Pays you higher maximums per year and per lifetime
than any other combination of health care now offered.
City Employees will no longer be able to transfer to the Blue Shield Major Medical option

This could be your last chance to add Blue Shield and Major Medical to your Blue Cross.
Remember: no other city employee option has major medical, and ours has major medical at no
extra charge.
Your Blue Cross and Blue Shield benefits, supplemented by major medical, provide the
most extensive family benefit program of any health-care option available to City Emplq/ees. In
addition to the basic Blue Cpss and Blue Shield benefits, this program provides private-duty
nursing, out-of-hospital specialist consultation, physical therapy and appliances, g^bulances,
and home and offioe visits... and niore extras that add up to $20,000 in lifetime m£oor medicad
benefits for each member of your family.
Check these benefits. Does any other health-care plan offered to City Employees compare?
Drug coverage is also available through payroll deduction.
You have 26 days) from September 20 thru October 15, to take advantage of Blue Shield
and Msgor Medical. For details call MU 9-2800 and ask for "City Information.*

"Widespread use of consultants and the
placing of non-competitive employees in civil
service titles is an uncalled for attack on the
civil service merit system and this practice
must be stopped before we return to the days
of Boss Tweed when public jobs were bought
and sold to the highest bidder."

So said Sanford Garelik, president of the
New York City Council and a mrember of the

These men were performing services to the
City that are being performed today at a

"Civil service is not the perfect system.
But nothing to date has been devised that has
even come close - to the degree of perfection
that we find in the civil service merit system,"
Choice In Top Commands
Garelik noted that the career system should
go right to the top. "Every commissioner
should have, as advisors, men and women who
have traveled the merit system road. They

C O N C E R N I N G T H E H E A L T H PROTECTION O F Y O U R S E L F A N D Y O U R F A M I L Y .
Here are six major reasons why H.I.P. is your best choice
for family health protection:
1
2
3

5
H.I.P. is the ONLY plan that provides unlimited medical, surgical, specialist, maternity, laboratory and X-ray.care. 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.
H.I.P. provides you with complete specialist services both in your doctor's office and in the hospital for as long as the specialist services are
medically 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.

H.I.P. WANTS Y O U T O KNOW T H A T I T IS T H E O N L Y H E A L T H PLAN
T H A T HAS N E V E R REDUCED ITS BENEFITS T O C I T Y EMPLOYEES!
Your medical needs are looked after by teams of experts who see to it that you get
the care you need, when you need it, for as long as needed. Because your medical
care is fully prepaid your physician doesn't have to hold back on any medical
service you may need, no matter how rare or costly it may be.
This is tlie level of modern medical care
that you have earned as a result of your
dedicated service as a New York City Employee.
ISN'T IT TIME FOR YOU TO JOIN H.I.P.

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.

(From Leader Correspondent)

tor, deputy chief inspector, assistant chief inspector and chief
inspector, as well as other J ^ clallzed titles.
In the Fire Department, there
are four promotional steps to
k^t pass before exempt promotions:
lieutenant, captain, battalion
chief and deputy Chief. Appointments to deputy assistant chief
and assistant chief of department are made as details from
deputy chief. However, unlike the
Police Department, the highest
job in the uniformed force —
chief of department—is filled as
a result of a promotional examination open to deputy chiefs.
^
Garelik said he would like to
Investigate the feasibility of
bringing the Police Department's
deputy inspectors and inspectors
Into the group of titles for which
promotional examinations are
given.•
Orals Too Subjective
»
"And I don't mean oral examinations either. They are too
subjective on the part o(f the
person administering the test,"
he added.
The Lindsay Administration
policy of plax!ing deputy Inspectors as commanders of precincts
was also discredited by Garelik,
who served as chief inspector
prior to his running for the
Council presidency,
•TThls practice justs waters
down the title of police captain
and costs the City more money."
I
Garelik repeated a quote from
Robert Moses, the controversial
but
effective City
planner
and governmental administrator,
which summed up his own feelings on the consultants: "They're
a bunch of language merchants."
"They find out what works
well In Boston, for example, and
tie it together with something
compatible that works well In
New York City. And then Its
their complete idea. That's just
a waste of taxpayers' money,"
Garelik said.
®
However, Garelik did point out
that "In some cases, the taxpayers are well served by consultants. However, not to the extent that we are now paying $68
milUtm^ a year as against $8 mll-
Hon five years aco."
Contradictory
Dangers
The conmiltant problem also
pointed out two •eeming'ly contradictory dangers. The Ocyundl
President noted that rery often
Independent eonflultants flftd
themselves on the pul^Hc payroll
as an exempt employee and. conversely, the C?ity loses raluaMe
employees to oonsultAnt fkms.
"They skim the cream o<f our
employee rolls after we qpend
many years training them for
their positions;
"There are a lot of eligible
lists In existence which are not
being used because of a Job
freeze, but the freeze should affect consultants first. We are
losing valuable men axkl women
whp are withering away on dvU
service lists. If we hired them
instead of consultants, tJien we
would be saving the taxpayers
millions of dollars annually.
"When we stop these hiring
practices, then we will stop penalizing the dedicated people
who carry out the day-to-day
operations of government-"
Gftrellk struck out at th« Off
Track Betting Corporation and
tbe Health and Hospitals Corporation.
CSrcnniTenting Tradition
"Both of these outfits are
circumventing the traditional
hiring of civil service employees
to perform civil service jobs.
dvU service asstu^s us that our
employees come up the civil service ladder, not the political ladder. No matter how they cut It,
these two corporations are govemment-operated and their employees should be from civil service Ustc.
Garelik concluded by striking
out ait the new "aide" jobs being
offered only to minority group
members who reside In certain
areas. "What this amounts to Is
f&yorltlsm within the minority
groups themselves," he said.
"Rather, the City School System
should offer preparatory courses
In dvil service-type fields of endeavor 90 that the City would
have a reservoir of ready, willing
and able youth who could take
and pass civil service tests.

Political Action
Survey Started
The political action committee of the Civil Service
Employees Assn. Is conducting a questionnaire survey of
candidates for office in St. Lawrence County in an effort to determine their opinions on issues
affecting public employees.
Donald Brou^, CSEA field representative, is chairman of the
committee. "I am chairing this
committee for the simple reason of protecting the employees
on it who will undobutedly make
some selection not favorable to
the 'political powers that be' in
the County," he said, "and since
our main purpose here is to try
to put the operation of the local
government into the hands of
officials who truly serve the Interests of the citizens, we are
protecting our committee members from reprisals through
anonymity. I am merely their
spokesman."
The committee has already
held meetings in Massena, Canton, and Ogdensburg to formulate plans for the canvassing of
candidates and for the endorsements.
