Important Reminder About Messages to the Legislature or the Public!

VSEA members are under attack, both at the bargaining table and in the Legislature, and members’ voices are the most powerful force we have. Members are already speaking out, particularly to legislators, so we need to remember some basic ground rules. Click here to view a memo that outlines some basic points about how to make sure your speech is protected. One of the key rules is this:

When you communicate with legislators, the media, or the public, make sure you are not on work time and don’t use the employer’s computer!

Nothing will undermine your message more effectively than the suspicion that you are using work time or the employer’s property for personal purposes. Electronic messages to lawmakers should originate from your personal email account and not from your state email account. The same goes for posting on websites or blogs. Send your messages from your personal email on break time, or pre- or post-work.

VSEA thanks all members for your attention to this request.

 

Joint Safety & Health Committee Posts “Complaint Form” To Gather Data From State Employees

For years, VSEA members and staff have served with management on a specially created Joint Safety and Health Committee, which meets periodically to discuss current safety and health issues impacting state employees, your worksites and/or the public. Committee members also strategize together about the best course of action to address a safety or health issue or concern, and they make recommendations to the State.

The Committee asked WIA to share that it has recently created a new downloadable “complaint” form for VSEA members to fill out and submit to the Committee if they are dealing with a safety or health issue and want to file an official complaint. The Committee will review all submitted forms at upcoming meetings to determine if action is warranted, and, if so, what kind of action is appropriate.

If you have any questions about the form, please contact VSEA’s staff liaison to the Committee, Field Services Director Gretchen Naylor. You can email her at gnaylor@vsea.org or call her at 223-5247.

 

Post Your Sign Photos To VSEA’s Facebook Page!

Please remember too, in the coming weeks and months, if you spot a VSEA yard sign, snap a photo and post it to VSEA’s Facebook page or send it VSEA Communications Director Doug Gibson at dgibson@vsea.org, and he’ll post it for you.

 

Threatened While On The Job? VSEA Wants To Know.

VSEA President Dave Bellini is asking all state employees who are threatened while performing your job duties to provide an account of the threat not only to your supervisor or the State, but also to VSEA.

“VSEA wants to begin to compile its own record of threats against frontline state employees, no matter your occupation,” explains Bellini. “I’m asking all employees who are threatened, especially those working in AHS, to take a few minutes to fill out an online form VSEA made to collect your report. The information will help us provide a firsthand account of the number of threats being made and where they are being made, in addition to some other things.”

If you are a state employee who is threatened on the job, please click here to find the online report form, which will remain confidential, unless otherwise approved by you.

Three VSEA Bargaining Teams Wait For State’s Response To Invite To Return To Table

It’s been just about a week since VSEA’s Non-Management, Corrections and Supervisory Bargaining Teams sent formal requests to State negotiators to return to the table to talk about the contents of a fact-finder’s report, which was presented to both sides on February 29. But, so far, no response.

Recognizing that the clock is ticking on a 20-day period for VSEA Teams and the State to come back to the table to see if the terms and conditions contained in the fact-finder’s report are agreeable, or even negotiable, VSEA Labor Relations Director confirmed this week with the Vermont Labor Relations Board (VLRB) that the official deadline for the State to respond is Monday, March 21. If the State does not respond by then, both sides will be forced in front of the VLRB to argue their case, and the the findings in the fact-finder’s report are expected to definitely play a role.

If you have a question, please contact a member of your Unit Bargaining Team. Click here for a list.

3/11/16 4:28 Update: After WIA was sent, VSEA received word from the State that their negotiators would meet next Thursday with the Corrections and Supervisory Bargaining Teams and next Friday with the Non-Management Team.

Full Senate Votes 26-2 To Move S. 154

VSEA and its DCF members are cheering a 26-2 vote this week by the full Senate to move S. 154 to the House for debate and a vote. The bill, which the VSEA Legislative Committee labeled a “priority” for the 2016 session, enhances the penalties for assaulting a DCF worker and criminalizes the act of making threats.

Under the terms of S.154, DCF workers and mandated reporters will join the ranks of police officers, first responders and medical providers. Assaulting a member of any of these professions carries a stronger penalty than the assault of an average person on the street. The enhanced penalty for assaulting a mandated reporter would only be in effect if the assault is directly related to the act of making a DCF report.

Paid Sick Days Signed Into Law

At a special signing ceremony at the State House on March 9, Vermont became the fifth state in the nation to pass legislation that grants most Vermont workers paid sick days. The bill allows employees who work at least 18 hours a week to accrue three days of paid sick leave starting in 2017. That increases to five days in the third year. Employers with five or fewer employees were given an additional year before they are subject to the new law. Employees can use the leave to care for himself or herself or a family member.

After the bill was signed, the State received the following message from the President of the United States:

“I commend…the state of Vermont for taking action to provide paid sick leave for Vermont’s working families. This action means thousands of families will no longer have to choose between losing income and taking care of a sick child. It’s a choice no one should have to make. So I’m once again calling on Congress to help us catch up with other advanced nations and provide this basic security to all Americans. Until Congress acts, I urge other states to follow Vermont’s lead. And I’ll continue to do everything I can as President to support working families – because it’s the right thing to do to give everyone a fair shot to get ahead.”

Game Warden Okay After Falling Through Ice While Attempting To Rescue Drowning Victim


Photo: @jess_aloe

VSEA was pleased to learn that Game Warden and member Dana Joyal has been released from the hospital after falling through the ice this week while checking on a report of unattended ice fishing gear on Shelburne Pond. Joyal saw a body in the ice, but he fell through it attempting to reach the victim. Thankfully, Warden Joyal was able to radio for help, but he did have to wait in the water for 25 minutes for rescue, so treatment for hypothermia was necessary. Sadly, fisherman Kenneth Gaudette died in the icy water.

Burlington Free Press Story

Stay Off The Ice!

Game Wardens are warning Vermonters that ice on waterways has deteriorated to unsafe levels across the state with the record warm temperatures, wind and rain.

The department says the ice may appear thick but is structurally weak and melting from underneath.

Reminder:
Deadline To Submit Bylaw Changes Is March 25!

The deadline to submit proposals for changes to VSEA’s Master Bylaws is Friday, March 25, 2016. Proposals must be mailed to: Janis Henderson, Bylaws Committee Chair, c/o VSEA Headquarters, P.O. Box 518, Montpelier, VT 05601-0518.

Proposals should reference the number, section, sub-section, etc. of the bylaw you would like to change. You should also include the language you want to add, delete or substitute. Also include the reason(s) you are making this proposal. Example: “Bylaw 0 A (1) (b) Change: Monday to Sunday. Reason: Makes it easier to work with the calendar.”

Please be sure the changes you are recommending include all Articles and/or Bylaws that may be affected by the proposed change.

If you have questions, please contact Janis at jhenderson@vsea.org.

Compromise Ends Effort This Session To Allow Lawmakers To Have Say In State Employees’ Pension Fund Investment Strategies

A few weeks back, WIA informed readers that VSEA was working with the State Treasurer to oppose efforts by lawmakers and the State to allow politics to enter into the investment strategies of the State Employees’ Pension Fund. VSEA leaders have been steadfast on their position that investment decisions should be made by financial experts in coordination with the Treasurer, not by politicians.

This week, VSEA was pleased to learn that the Treasurer has agreed to a compromise to effectively kill the prospect of anything passing this year that would allow politicians to enter into the Pension Fund’s investment process. According to a February 9 VTDigger story, under an agreement reached this week, the Treasurer’s Office and the Vermont Pension Investment Committee (VPIC) have agreed to form a subcommittee a “to examine how state retirement money might be withdrawn from coal and oil companies without any risk of reducing pensions of retired state workers.” The end result hopefully being the development of a solid plan to gradually pull investments from out of most fossil fuel companies, but Treasurer Pearce adds the plan would not invite “legislative investment” in the process, reminding that their involvement could introduce unwanted factors in the Funds’ investment strategy. Pearce says “fiduciary responsibility” should be the only factor in the process. In the story, VSEA Legislative Director Nancy Lynch calls this week’s development an “excellent compromise.”

Digger adds, “The agreement is tentative, with several details still to be worked out.”

Legislation Introduced To Break Up AHS

VTDigger reports that two bills were introduced this week, both intended to “reform” state government’s largest agency.

Sen. Jane Kitchel (D-Caledonia) introduced S. 107; a bill to create a new AHS body called the Agency of Health Care Administration. The Senate Government Operations Committee gave the legislation unanimous approval, but the State remains opposed to the bill, calling it a “step backwards” when it comes to the integration of services.

On the House side, H. 522 would create a new position to oversee Vermont’s child protection system, labeling the person an “ombudsman.” In the story, child protection advocates argue for the position, but the State counters that “Vermont already has a number of different forms of oversight already in place.”

Central Vermont Chapter Meeting Monday, March 14

VSEA Central Vermont Chapter President Cassandra Edson asked WIA to remind the Chapter’s next meeting is Monday, March 14, at VSEA headquarters in Montpelier. The meeting begins at 5:00 p.m. Please RSVP to Cassandra at cassandraedson@hotmail.com.
