Supervisory Update August 2009
In an effort to keep the Web Site up to date and give you the latest information I have available on the issues concerning CCPOA Supervisors, I submit the following updates
The 3.125% Back‐pay Case is still in the appeal process. All the briefs have been filed; we are just awaiting a decision.
The Donning and Doffing Case ‐ All required paperwork and briefs have been filed; we are just waiting a court date.
The Furlough Case ‐ The Department of Personnel Administration published a question and answer page on their web site for state workers concerning your responsibilities in regards to possible job actions. DPA stated “Unit 6 members have no right to strike because they are “essential employees”, which means their services are “essential” to the public health and safety”. I wonder if our Governor read that!
Again in this case all required paperwork and briefs have been filed and we are waiting for a court date. For those of you with zip codes that qualify for the Rural Subsidy Reimbursement for the period of July 1, 2008 thru June 30, 2009, you have until September 15th to apply for your $1500 dollar subsidy. Thank you to Corey Davis for this information.
On July 30th, we meet with DPA to discuss the inequity regarding Senior Peace Officer Pay as it applies to Supervisors. DPA indicated CCPOA’S position is clear and understood its merit, however in the current fiscal climate the State could not grant any of the proposals, but suggested that the issue could be re‐introduced by CCPOA at a later more opportune time.
I will again update our website as soon as more information becomes available. Thank you for your continued support. Be safe.

LBFO Update
Meal and Rest Breaks and Donning and Doffing
These cases are both in the discovery phase and we anticipate moving forward aggressively in the coming months. It is also anticipated that CCPOA will be seeking individual "litigants" sometime after the first of the year.
8 Hour Work Day
This case is proceeding through the Court and CCPOA has a legal "Brief" due to the Court on December 31, 2008. Reply briefs are due three weeks later and the first hearing date is set for January 30, 2009.
