Accordinig to William Criirnn, the president of the CSEA chapter at Rochester PC, the filing of the charge with the state Pblic Employment Relations Board was precipltiated by the administration's refsal to abide "by decisions rendered in three contract grievances filed by the CSEA in which the liion was pheld. The chapter president said that the CSEA's charges were confirmed in each of the grievances: one involving ot-of-title clerical work being done by la Grade-9 CSEA: No Thrway Strike Try ALBANY A vehement denial was issed late last week by the Civil Service Employees Assn. that the nion had planned a strike by New York State Thrway employees to coincide with the Labor Day weekend. The denial was seen as a response-to a letter sent to Thrway workers by Athority officials which sggested that management was fearfl of a strike or some other Job action by Thrway CSEAers. A strike wold have snarled the Thrway, especially on a holiday like Labor Day, when many motorists take to the road. The CSEA and the Thrway have been nvolved in lengthy negotiations in an effort to reach a contract. The pact wold cover toll takers, maintenance and clerical personnel employed by the Thrway. A CSEA spokesman said the nion has backed a volntary "work to the rles" action by toll takers, maintenance employees and clerical personnel. He said that if toll takers, for example, observed Thrway rles to the letter, traffic at booths Ptnam Unit Signs A Contract; Carries S2,400 Employee Hike CARMEL The 400-member Ptnam Conty nit. Civil Service Employees Assn., has won a three-year contract. The pact incldes a raise of approximately $2,400 for the workers over the first two years, and another increase in the third year which will be based on the Department of Labor's Brea of Labor. Statistics consmer price index. Details of the implementation of retroactive payment and of the formla for the third-year increase had not yet been settled at Leader presstime. The contract s based on an award by Pblic Employment Relations Board arbitrator Bertmm Kpsinel, who was called NSDE THE LEADER Urge Primary Defeat Of Rochester Politico See Page 3 Gain Baclt Pay For Madison Worker See Page 8 Dtchess Sheriff's Unit Edcates Pblic See Page 9 Latest State Eligible Lists See Pages into the case after fritless negotiations between the nion and the conty legislatre. The Ptnam employees had been working withot a contract since Jan., 975. Mr. Kpsinel fond not only that the employees deserved an increase in pay, bt also that the conty mst pay an dditional 3 percent penalty to the nion. The conty's Boaixl of Spervisors then passed a resoltion (Contined on Pate U) wold be appreciably slowed at all points along the Thrway. "Contrary to what management strongly hinted, we had no intention of striking the Thrway over the Labor Day weekend," the CSEA spokesman said. "Bt delays did develop for motorists entering and exiting toll booths all along the Thrway over this long weekend. "Bt the real problem is that the Thrway workforce is nderstaffed to begin with, and the Thrway management is not filling vacancies, even thogh revenes were p more than $7.2 million the first six months of this year alone." The CSEA spokesman said the Thrway management had notified all employees to be available for overtime work assignments on Labor Day weekend, even thogh overtime is on a strictly volnteer basis. Any absences, the notice said, de to illness, wold reqire a doctor's certificate, even thogh the contract does not reqire (Contined on Page 3) therapy assistant, one in which the OSEA charged that rotation of shifts was being done withot regard to seniority, and one involving the assignment of pass days withot sing seniority as indicated in the negotiated contact. Administrators of the instittion have "not seen fit to mplement the settlements" of the grievances, the CSEA alleges. Robert Lattimer, president of CSEA Western Region (Bffalo), said that since these grievances were settled, "the administration has not only been ignoring the official decisions, which action in itsejf cold be interpreted as 'nion bsting.' bt they have been refsing to allow employees to exchange pass days, a practice that has been going on for yeai^s. "Althogh this practice may not be spelled ot in the CSEA contract," Mr. Lattimer said, "it most certainly can be considered a 'past practice' and, as sch. s technically piart of an agreement between an employer and his employees." The CSEA leader said that his allegations of "nion bsting" are spponted frther by the administration's explanation of (Coniined on Page 3) Central Region Political Meet SYRACUSE A meeting of the political action committee of Central Region V (Syracse).

Lattimer Urges A Drive To Dmp State Senator BUFFALO Labeling incmbent State Senator Fred J. Eckert (R-C, Monroe) "a rabble-rosing headline hnter, who has ridden on or backs long enogh," Robert L. Lattimer, Civil Service Employees Assn. Western Region V (Bffalo) president called on CSEA members, pblic employees, and workers in general to vote for William Steinfeldt for the Repblican Party nomination in the 54th Senatorial District. Tesday, Sept. 4, the GOP rnoff date, is a red-letter day for all pblic employes, Mr. Lattimer ^id, rging a 00 percent trnot at the polls. "f this happens, politicians across the state will nderstand that we reward or friends and pnish or enemies," Mr. Lattimer predicted. Mr. Lattimer said Senator Eckert last spring "barnstormed the editorial offices of the antiworker class to riaise a storm abot so-called 'plsh pensions of pblic employees,' which crrently average $3,470 per year, or $30 less than the $3,500 'll* the senator gets and abot half No Thrway Strike Try (Contined from Page ) sch a certificate ntil after an employee has been absent de to illness for a total of three days in any given year. Employees were also told reqests for other forms of leave over the Labor Day weekend wold not be honored, according to the nion. "This is the latest in a long list of acts and threats by management designed to intimidate the employees." the CSEA official said. The CSEA> charges that Thrway management walked away from the bargaining table on Jne and has refsed to negotiate ever since. According to the nion, management nilaterally and iuegally has stripped away several major employee and nion rights since the previos contract expired on Jne 30. The CSEA has three improper practice charges pending against the Thrway Athority as a reslt, and the nion spokesman said another is likely following nformation for the Calendar may be sbmitted directly to THE LEADER. t shold inclde the date, time, place, address and city for the fnction.

The CSEA said employees were working strictly to their job specifications and that, in addition, toll collectors closely followed instrctions in the toll manal prepared by the Thrway. "The toll manal makes collectors responsible for many tasks beyond jst collecting the tolls or handing ot toll tickets," according to the nion representative. "For instance, toll collectors are also responsible for checking special Thrway plates, special trcking permits, and special haling permits. "Also, they are reqired to condct periodic vehicle inspections entering and leaving the Thrway for possible violations of motor vehicle reglations. These all take time to perform, and on especially bsy days cold reslt in longer than sal delays in both directions arond toll booths." of what the taxpayer contribtes each year toward his pension." "Ll" is verbal shorthand for "payment in lie of expenses" which are issed to a nmber of state legislators. They have come nder attack by the CSEA and by other legislators, notably Assemblyman Andrew Stein (D-L, Manhattan).

"Now t's or trn. "We can make a has been ot of tills rabble roser," Mr. Lattimer asserted. "We've got the votes, and we've got the spport of all nions of pblic employees, as well as some from the private sector, who see throgh the sen- 'ator's motives; of ctting or pensions to please the big-money Associated ndstries people, so they can hold down private indstry pensions for the little gys too. "He made the headlines lest Attack 'Union Bsting' (Contined from Page ) why workers are not being allowed to exchange pass days. "They maintain that, since it isn't written down in black and white, they are living p to the contract by ndt allowing employees to exchange. They are.saying, 'Yo can thank CSEA for this,' indicating that the fact that the CSEA won grievances charging violations of the contract is forcing them to follow spring. Now, let s make the headlines this fall with a massive trnot at the polls aiod a resonding defeat for this arrogant demiagoge." Mr. Lattimer reported that the effort to nseat the senator incldes mailings, telephone calls, and enlistment of volnteers for Mr. Steinfeldt. He s a former assemblyman whose record in the assembly was "one of fairness to Emblic employees balanced by a tre concern for taxp'ayers," Mr. Lattimer said, adding that Associated ndstries is the "big bsiness dominated" grop i-mored as the financial backer of Senator Eckert. The Senator had admitted that his expenses wold be "picked p by some bsiness friends," bt. apprised that sch action cold lead to felony charges, annonced that he wold cover his own expenses of abot $,500.

5 Beffinniiiff with this edition, The Leader presents a three-part series on the Comprehensive Employment and Training Act (CETA) What t is, how it is absed, and what is being done abot t. Leader featres editor Jane Bernstein has talked to a lot of people who shold know the answers, bt fond they don't always agree. This series will, we hope, clarify some of the misnderstandings. s f The Answer By JANE BERNSTEN Ever since its creation, the Federal Comprehensive Employment and Training Act has been a matter for concern and some confsion among state and local officials, pblic employees, nion members and officials and iwiviate citizens. The Comprehensive Employment and Training Act (CETA) was passed by Congress in late 973 in answer to the problems raised by growing nmbers of hard-core nemployed, mostly in rban areas. t was an offshoot of the Manpower Development and Training Act of the early 970's, which addressed tself to the problems of an inflationary economy. Bt the CETA program differed greatly in one respect from the MDTA. The federal government, when allocating fnds to local mnicipalities and states, stiplated how and where that money was to be spent. Government officials began to realize that the individal cities knew where the greatest pblic service needs existed. Ths, the object of the CETA program became twofold: t alleviated some of the nemployment problem and also allowed a local mnicipality to apply the fnds to services that were needed most, throgh a "block" grant operation. When passed, CETA consisted of three titles nder which money was made available. Title fnds are primarily sed for training programs. nclded in this grop are adlt and yoth on-the-job training, adlt workshops, classroom training, smmer in school for yoth, job placement and conseling for careers. New York City has Title fnds of $90 million throgh Sept. 30 of this year. Some of that money was also sed to rehire laid off civil servants. Title fnds are sed for pblice employment programs. Those who are long-term nemployed, nderemployed, are provided with transitional or temporary employment in different areas of the pblic sector where services are needed. ndividals mst be nemployed for 30 days or more to qalify for a job nder this title. The jobs are generally in areas where low income and high nemployment exist. Workers are prepared to move into other jobs not spported by federal monies, whether in the pblic or private sectors. Title provides for special programs, sch as the Smmer Yoth Employment Program, which grants jobs to yoths from families who are considered disadvantaged by federal standards. Poverty level income for a family of for is $5,500 a year. t also allocates money for other special projects, sch as the employment and training of American ndians. On Dec. 3, 974, Congress passed an amendment to the CETA laws, CETA Or The Qestion? RCA instrctor Lo Marano aids foreign stdents in their reading skills. Mr. Marano, whose program was ct in half, blasted the New York City Department of Employment for what he calls a bad sense of priorities in administering CETA fnds. " have to consider the total employment pictre when deoldinig where money shold be ipent," aays Lcille Rose, Commiflsioner of the New York City Department of Employment, a CETA prime sponsor. creating Title V. At this time, mnicipalities began having fiscal tax)bles and had to lay off reglar employees; some provisions had to be made for those laid off to retrn to the working world. This title, called the Emergency Jobs and Unemployment Assistance Act, allows fnds for ndividals hit by bdget crises to retrn to their former jobs. Bt according to dtta law, an employee may not be paid more than $0,000 a year from federal fnds. f a local government sees fit, it may make p the difference between the previos and the CETA salary ot of mnicipal tax levy monies. As of March of this year, 2,00 laid off civil servants in New York City were rehired sing Title V fnds. Some of them inclded firemen, sanitationmen, park laborers, corrections officers, and social service workers. The distribtion of fnds and hiring nto jobs s done by what s termed the "prime sponsor." The sponsor may be a state, local government with a poplation of more than 00,000, or a grop of local governments whose poplations total over 00,000. For example. n New York City, the Department of Employment, headed by Commissioner Lcille Rose, ak;ts as one of the iprlme sponsors for the Metropolitan area. The department, throgh CETA, has been able to better attack nemployment n poverty sections of New York City. t employs vendors to administer training programs for disadvantaged adlts and yoth, especially those for whom English is a second langage. One of the jvoblems the department now faces in view of need to make ctbacks and savings. s how to determine where the highest priorities are. Very often, the persons affected in the redction ment pictre. "While these people are an important part of the nemployed, there are also other important segments, inclding laid off civil servants, disadvantaged yoth, and victims of ctbacks in the private sector," she said. " mst consider the total pictre when deciding where to realize cost savings." New York City is jst one of the prime sponsors with the brden of deciding how and where CETA monies shold be applied. The CETA grants nder Title for pblic service jobs generally extend for a period of 8 months, then mst be renewed. Persons hired nder this title may not take the jobs of reglar civil servants who were laid off, or knock a reglar mnicipal worker ot of his or her job. f an eligible list for a certain title exists, a mnicipality mst hire those who took a civil service test for the job, rather than a CETA worker. When hiring, the prime sponsor mst complete forms detailing the eligibility of each applicant, pls the methods employed to recrit and select each individal. The U.S. De- ^rtment of Labor has Manpower representatives who are charged with monitoring varios CETAfnded programs. The monitoring system does not, however, prevent certain abses from taking place, which wul be illstrated n the second part of this series. areas disagree with the city administration in ts choices. An example of this is the contining fed between the department and one of its vendors, the RCA training program. The program concentrates on preparing the difficlt-to-employ with academic and job skills. t claims an 85 percent placement rate in bsiness for the people it trains. Bt de to the bdget crisis, the program has had its fnding ct in half by the department. Lo Marano, who teaches English as a second langage for RCA says the program shold not have been ct as severely as it was becase of its sccess in finding work for its stdents, therefore widening the tax base of New York City.

FRDAY, SEPTEMBER 0, 976 A Pblic View 440EE that frop of men sitting over there. The one in the light ble trosers, in particlar. t's amazing how he keeps so clean. They've been working on the street repair for weeks, and yesterday he picked p a shovel and held it ot delicately in front of him to keep from dirtying himself. t's the first we've seen him do anything in weeks." The above loosely reconstrcted conversation is based on a bsinessman's observation of a work crew otside his window. There they were, for workers sitting neatly in a row, as a fifth man operated an asphalt roller. Later the same day, a police car was seen idling in the street, as the driver was on the sidewalk chatting with a girl who was obviosly a personal acqaintance. This street was n mldtown Manhattan, and one lane was already blocked off for some repair work. So between the blockedoff lane and the dling police car, only one lane was left open. * * * Do we expect more of pblic sector employees than we do of those in the private sector? The answer is probably Yes. Taxpayers consider themselves to be the pblic employees' boss. The faxjt that we share this boss role with several hndred thosand other people, and that pblic employees themselves are taxpayers, doesn't qite penetrate or minds when we witness scenes like those described above. * *» This contines to be a time when civil servants are nder attack by those people and organizations who eagerly take advantage of the ndiscretions of a few pblic employees in order to point a finger of blame at all civil servants. Yet, there are too many employees in both the pblic and the private sectors who have developed an attitde that the nion will protect them. t is n the nterest of everyone to remove the deadbeats so that the pblic can appreciate the vale of ts dedicated civil servants. Primary Action POLTCAL action s n fll-swing in the Rochester area, where Assemblyman Fred Eckert (R-C) is being challenged n the primary by former Assemblyman William Stelnfeldt. Mr. Eckert, it will be remembered. s the man who campaigned so heavily to force throgh changes that redced pension plans for pblic employees who were added to the payroll after Jly of this year. t has reslted n a threetier pension system, creating neqities among newer employees, those hired dring the three years prior to this Jly and those on the payroll prior to Jly, 973. t is little wonder that the Civil Service Employees Assn. s aiding n the effort to elect Mr. Stelnfeldt n the Repblican primary. Both CSEA's Western Region V president Robert Lattlmer and Rochester chapter president Samel Qrossfleld have come ot for Mr. Stelnfeldt, even thogh the two nion leaders themselves had rn against each other only one year ago n a tensely foght race for the nion office now held by Mr. Lattlmer. The Lattimer-Orossfield agreement on this isse emphasizes the importance nion leaders are giving to the election of Mr. Stelnfeldt in the pcoming primary next week. Rochester-area voters shold take heed. (Contined from Pare ) their new rights to engage in political activity. For almost for decades, sch employees, whose salaries were paid in whole or in part with federal fnds, were "Hatched"... that is, they were barred from any political activity by the provisions of the Hatch Act. However, in 974 Congress enacted an amendment to the Hatch Act, which sbstantially eliminated its applications to sch employees. Newly Won Eights There is obviosly some confsion among top exectives of pblic agencies concerning the extent to which sch previosly Hatched employees may exercise their new-won rights as citizens. A case in point is a letter written by the New York City Board of Ethics to a City employee informing her that she mst report to her spervisors abot all of her political activities even thogh they took place otside the office and on her own time. Fortnately, this employee is a constitent of Congressman Edward. Koch, who was a leader in Congress in the drive to change the provision in the Hatch Act that made it applicable to state and local government employees. Koch promptly took p the cdgels, not only in behalf of his constitent, bt more importantly to ensre that administrative interpretations wold in no way impair sch civil service employees in the exercise of their rights. The City Ethics Board initially soght to sstain its position on the theory that "the prpose of reporting to the agency head is to make sre that the employee does not engage in political activities on City time and also to make sre that those activities are not in conflict with existing laws or official dties." Congressman Koch challenged this rling with the assertion that it wold not only have a chilling effect pon the right of civil service employees to engage in political activities, bt that t also frstrated the intent of Congress in amending the Hatch Act. He insisted that sch a reqirement wold make civil service employees "secondclass citizens" and qeried frther: "Sppose the head of the agency didn't like what the employee was doing, cold that administrator reqire that employee not to engage in the activities?" The Congressman insisted that the proper approach to the problem was that all pblic employees "shold be notified as to what the limitations and restrictions are and if they violate those then they are sbject to appropriate penalty." There Are Limitations Congressman Koch won his argment and the City Board of Ethics will proceed along the lines proposed by him. As the Congressman said, there are obvios limitations on the political activities of civil service employees. Clearly, partisan political activity is prohibited on government property. Nor may government property be sed for political fnd-raising activities. n that connection, it will be recalled that a recently planned fnd-raising party to meet a campaign deficit incrred by Governor Carey's campaign committee, originally planned for Oracle Mansion, was moved to (Coatlnaad m D Civil Service Law & Yo y RCHARD GARA Mr. Gaba is a member of the firm of White, Walsh and Gaba.

A Case Of Discipline A hearing officer's decision and recommended order fond that a school district violated Section 209-a(l) (a) and (c) of the Taylor Law when it institted charges and imposed a reprimand against a nion president, on the gronds that the charge and reprimand were motivated by anti-nion feelings on the part of the school district. * * * THE UNON PRESDENT was a math teacher who had taght in the school district for 4 years. On his way to a nion meeting with several elementary school teachers, the nion president encontered the elementary school principal. A discssion ensed between the nion president and the principal, the content of which was a dispte having to do with the tenre of another teacher. Shortly thereafter, the principal's secretary telephoned the nion president n the faclty room and advised him that the principal wold like to meet with him immediately. * * «THE PRESDENT SAD he cold not make it ntil later that afternoon and asked to speak to the principal on the phone. Later that afternoon, the nion president received a letter from the principal stating that de to his behavior, he was forbidden rom visiting the elementary school ntil frther notice. The two men did not meet again that day. The sperintendent of schools was advised of the incident by the principal, and a written version of the facts was sbmitted by the principal to the sperintendent of schools. Ultlniately, charges were nstitted against the nion president nder Section 3020-a of the Edcation Law for the prpose of ptting a reprimand n the nion president's file. Prior to the charge actally being ssed, however, the nion president apologized to the principal in a bar. Nevertheless, the Board of Edcation felt that this was nsfficient, and that the charge shold sse. i>i THERE WAS TESTMONY at the mproper practice hearing to the effect that the sperintendent of schools had told the Board n many exective sessions dring the school year that the nion president was a "troble maker." There was also testimony that the sperintendent of schools told the Board that the free period given to the nion president afforded him the time to harass the school district with grievances. The record showed that 5 grievances had been filed after the sperintendent of schools was hired, whereas in the prior year only for grievances had been filed. * ««WTH SPECFC REGARD to the discssion between the nion president and the principal, the record revealed that it had not been overheard by anyone. Based on the foregoing, the hearing officer fond that if the sperintendent of schools had not reported the incident to the School Board and recommended a reprimand, there wold have been no Board action and the ncident wold have been finished.

Other deterrents are teaching people to protect themselves, their families and their homes and nvolving each citizen in the effort to make his commnity a safer place to live, Mr. Smith said. Teaching traffic safety s also a major concern of the nit. Mr. Smith siaid that n 974 alone, when Dtchess Conty had 4,542 vehicles registered, there were 45 deaths, 4,600 traffic-related injries and 3,242 property damage accidents.

"We were confident or City of Syracse membership wold careflly weigh the choice and make the decision to ignore a lot of the AFSCME's 'ble sky* promises. And they did exactly that.

The greater the percentage of state employees belonging to CSEA, the greater the strength of the state bargaining nits. Therefore, we are offering members in good standing a cash incentive to recrit new members. There is no limit to the nmber of new members yo may sign p.
