Retention and Recruitment 5.17.1 – Application

Eligibility:

The original R&R language restricted classifications which had been through the Civil Service Improvement (CSI) process or who had received a prior Special Salary Adjustment (SSA) from being considered for the R&R process. During the 2019 contract negotiations, the CSI and SSA language was removed, thus removing restrictions on eligibility. All classifications in Unit 1 can submit applications for R&R process consideration.

Get involved in the fight for Telework today!

Can you petition and lobby your Legislator on Why Telework Works for California?

Interested in meeting with your state legislator to share why Teleworks works for you and for California? Join our fight today and fill out our interest form here.

Why does the Telework Stipend Matter?

The State is also proposing to negotiate to remove the state-wide Telework Stipend to “solve” the budget shortfall on the shoulders of state employees. This benefit will not solve current budgetary issues and your Union negotiated this stipend in good faith and did the hard work to incorporate it into you Contract last summer.

This is about protecting our hard-earned Contract!

SEIU Local 1000 must tell the State of CA to respect our Contract. Check out our cease-and-desist letter to CalHR’s Paul Starkey here.

Telework Works for CA

This is a priority issue for Local 1000 and part of our commitment to providing real representation. Changes in telework impact your working conditions, so when our employer seeks to change working conditions (including telework), they must notice Local 1000 of these changes.

When Local 1000 receives notice of proposed changes, it enables the Union to bargain over those changes to mitigate the impacts. The employer may not change working conditions without considering the impact to workers—and never unilaterally. And that’s where your Union steps in. If your department is implementing RTO and this impacts you and your coworkers, please reach out to your URC Rep, or the MRC, to get an update on your department’s Meet and Confer AND we encourage you to take action below!

An open letter to the Represented Workers of SEIU Local 1000

As many of you are aware, on Thursday, January 18th, 2024, SEIU Local 1000 experienced a network disruption by an outside actor. As we investigated the incident we learned that it was caused by certain data being encrypted. We are aware of the discussion happening on social media about the type of attack we are purported to have had and the actor by whom it was apparently done. We are currently working with outside experts to ensure ongoing network security and assist and advise as we continue to restore our operations.
