Side Letter: Outsourcing

Report on wasteful contracts
How you can help to reduce job outsourcing
The new Outsourcing Task Force –created by the June side
letter–is beginning to focus on wasteful private vendor
contracts that can be eliminated, so that the cost savings can
save taxpayer money and help preserve member pay and state jobs.
Working with members on the Outsourcing Task Force Local 1000’s
Contract, Research and Legal departments are reviewing and
challenging those contracts that needlessly cost the state
money.
If you are aware of a situation where private contractors are
performing work that could be done by Local 1000-represented
state, please take a few minutes and fill out the survey
form here.
This information will help the task force identify priority
contracts to review and analyze to possibly reduce the use of
contractors and contract employees who perform the work of state
workers, develop plans to transfer work back to state workers
and/or reduce the cost of contracts.
