Records Show Most Disciplinary Actions are Upheld
State employes who have appealed dismissal or
suspension actions to the Public Employe Relations
Board have fared poorly during the first six months of
this year.
Records obtained from the PERB show seven ap­
peals from dismissal and one appeal from suspension
have been heard by the board. Disciplinary action
taken against employes has been upheld by the board
in seven of the eight cases.
Actions upheld include dismissal of a chemist by the
Department of Environmental Quality, dismissal of a
carpenter by the University of Oregon Medical School,
dismissal of an information officer by the State
Economic Opportunity Office, suspension of a
mail carrier by the Children's Services Division
dismissal of a custodian by the University of Oregon
and dismissal of a psychiatric aide by Fairview
Hospital and Training Center.
Employes in all of those unsuccessful appeals were
represented by OSEA. The only case in which a
dismissal was not upheld by the board involved a
psychiatric aide at Fairview Hospital who was not
represented by the Association. His dismissal was
modified to a suspension by the board.
"In none of these cases where we represented the
employe in an appeal," said OSEA staff attorney John
S. Irvin, "could I forsee any reasonable chance of
getting the disciplinary action modified or set aside."
"The state agencies, apparently with substantial
guidance from the attorney general's office, have had
adequate, substantial grounds for disciplinary action
in each case. They also have been far more careful to
warn employes ahead of time of shortcomings in
performance," he noted.
"We used to get many cases in which an agency was
on the wrong track in taking disciplinary action
against an employe, and many times the employe's co­
workers would come to us to point out that fact. That
just doesn'tseem to occur any m ore," Irvin said.
He noted there nearly always is "some substantia,
fa u lt" involved in disciplinary actions. "The main
reason we press the appeal usually is to present our
position that the penalty imposed is too severe. This
year we have had far better luck in working out set­
tlements that are of some benefit to both the employe
and the agency."
In cases involving other than disciplinary actions
during the past several months, the PERB has agreed
with OSEA's position twice and ruled against the
Association on four occasions. Both cases in which
OSEA prevailed were against the Public Welfare
Division.
In the first case, decided in May, the board ruled that
refusal of PWD officials to let an employe inspect a
form dealing with his promotional potential was im ­
proper. In June the PERB held that the Public Welfare
Division was not bargaining in good faith when it
refused to continue contract negotiations with the
Association until agreement was reached on a list of
positions to be exluded from the PWD bargaining unit.
Two of the cases in which the board ruled against
OSEA were decided in March. One involved denial of
an Association request for six offset printers to be
reclassified. In the other, the PERB dismissed an
OSEA complaint that the Public Welfare Division had
violated its bargaining contract by denying pay raises
to tria l service employes who had attained regular
status.
In June the board ruled against an OSEA claim for
overtime pay it filed on behalf of eight cooks and two
institution workers at the Oregon State Hospital, and
dismissed the appeals of 14 employes who were denied
m erit pay increases.
