OSEA’s
contract with the state provides
for a per diem allowance to
cover the expenses of employes
who travel on the job for the
state.
All the same, some members
of management in the Depart
ment of Fish and Wildlife have
decided to have their own
“policy” of not paying per diem
to the department’s employes;
Rodney Workman, a hat
cheryman here, was required
as part of his job to drive over 25
miles to another work location
and to live for 10 days in a
trailer there and be on 24-hour
duty. His supervisor’s super
visor informed him about the
department’s “policy” of not
paying per diem.

Carol Helton, a secretary in,
the
Justice
Department’s
Support Enforcement Division,
here, was told by her super
visor, Asst. Attny. Gen. Charles
Thompson, that she had
“problems here, here and
here,” according to OSEA
Employe
Representative
Gordon Webb.
When Webb asked him if
these were problems in her
work plan, Thompson said she
didn’t have a work plan.
Thompson later told Webb
that he wouldn’t suspend Helton
and he wouldn’t dismiss her and
that she would start with a clean
slate and a work plan would be
drawn up for her. In other
words, she would start as a new
employe, less the trial service,,

Workman also was given a

merit rating even though he had
been working without a position

Fish and Wildlife, Webb suc
ceeded in getting $120 in back
pay for Workman and in having
the performance appraisal
thrown out.
Apparently this “policy” of
not paying per diem was not
known to everyone in Fish and
Wildlife, for when the assistant
personnel officer found out
about it, his resolution to the
grievance was to say that Work
man should send a completed
expense voucher to him. When
Workman did, the per diem was
paid.
