QUESTIONS ABOUT "FAIR SHARE?"

Phase 1 of the Severance Process was completed on
September 18th 2008 when PERB determined that, quote,
". . . the support is sufficient to meet the requirement of Regulations
40200(b) and 32700"
This meant that 50%+1 of the eligible Peace Officers
had signed a severance card saying they were in favor of a new State
Bargaining Unit composed solely from sworn law enforcement employees
(then) currently in State Bargaining Unit 7.
PERB then scheduled a Settlement Conference between
all parties on October 22nd, 2008 and as no settlement could be
reached, a series of hearings were scheduled for January, February
and March 2009.
Those hearings have been completed and final Briefs
were presented by all parties on Monday the 10th August, 2009.
Phase 2 will only happen if PERB rules that an
election will be appropriate. If this were to be deemed
inappropriate, then P.O.C. would
continue to function with growing membership month by month as a
Peace Officer Association.
Running in parallel,
read about the landmark
Edelen - Lewis PERB Decision and find out how that affects YOUR ability to
get out of CAUSE / CSLEA!!
Intimidation:
If you have been 'intimidated'
by CAUSE / CSLEA for exercising your rights to campaign for a better way
of doing things (severance) then 'click' here to
see what your
rebuttal
might be based upon what other officers did!!!
See also what the Public Employment Relations
Board (PERB) has to say:
In Summary the section
that says 'The right of
employees covered by the PERB - administered statutes to "form,
join, and participate in the activities of employee organizations"
is enforceable against unions as well as employers. It is an unfair
practice for an employee organization to "[i]mpose . . . reprisals
on employees, to discriminate . . . or otherwise to interfere with,
restrain, or coerce employees because of their exercise of
[protected] rights' says it all!!
If you follow
'this-link,' it will take you to a "document that will clearly show
where the money came from that
enabled the reopening of the last contract. It directly
counters anything CAUSE / CSLEA says in regards to any efforts THEY
made to get the funds for the raises - that it did, indeed, come
from Warden efforts.
It proves
that what the Wardens are saying
is
TRUE!!"
The above is an extract from a Letter
to the General Manager from a Warden.
What to see how far you are behind compared to other States:
Correctional Officers seem to have been well represented, but did CAUSE
/ CSLEA do a good job
looking after YOUR interests:
Investigator: -21.37%
Supervising Investigator: -30.23%
Note: as one Investigator
writes, "the figures are even then, gross underestimates" . . .
and a Ranger added (Click
on the links in the sentence) .
. .
See what
the DPA
says and see the figures for yourself:

Like Pay for Like work: the precedent has been well set!!
Many requests had been made in the past by various officers asking CAUSE
/ CSLEA for copies of the constitution and / or standing rules. Until
recently, none of those officers had ever received a copy as requested.
What has been received is now posted below in chronological order for
anyone that may find such information of benefit, especially if
performing research to identify changes:
CAUSE Constitution, June
2004
CAUSE
Constitution, Standing Rules, June 2004
CAUSE
Constitution, Standing Rules, March 2007
CSLEA Constitution, August
