Page 4 OSEA News ERB rejects petition for UO vote Rebate (Continued from page 3) the steps to be taken by a nonmember in order to challenge the amount of the final political activity rebate pursuant to Section VII below. Collective bargaining at the University of Oregon was dealt a minor setback on Jan. 23 when the Employe Relations Board rejected a petition to certify representation for academic- faculty at the school. VII. CHALLENGE TO FINAL PO LITICA L AC TIVITY REBATE A. If a nonmember contends that the final political a ctivity rebate does not accurately reflect the percentage of the OSEA annual budget actually spent for political activity, he or she may challenge the final political activity rebate by sending a w ritten com munication to this effect to the Executive D irector. Said communication shall be con sidered timely if it is post marked not more than ten ( 10) days after the nonmember received the rebate and written communication from the Executive Director pursuant to Section VI above. B. The Executive Director shall refer any challenge to the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors shall take such steps as it deems appropriate to resolve the issue, provided that the nonmember and/or his or her representative shall have the right to submit written material and to present oral argument to the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors may, at its option, consolidate two or more such challenges into a single proceeding. United Oregon Professors, a coalition between OSEA and the American Federation of Teachers, filed a petition with 317 representation cards from the proposed bargaining unit; what they thought to be well above the required 30 percent. However, when university management submitted its list of all university employes in the proposed unit, UOP’s petition was almost 40 signatures short. Fred Hasle, OSEA mem bership and education director, said that UOP will now have to go back to the university and obtain new representation cards from all those who signed the original petition. In ad dition, they will need to gain at least 40 additional signatures. Governor Victor Atiyeh was the guest speaker at the January meeting of Salem ROSE Chapter 203. The governor told retired OSEA members that he supports expansion of the retirement system and additions to the pension fund ‘‘as long as they are actuarially sound.” He also said that new legislation is needed concerning parking fees charged state employees and that one of his major priorities for the next two years will be to increase efficiency in mid-level bureaucracy. Shown with Gov. Atiyeh is Chapter President Bill Thompson (standing) and Chapter vice-president Leonard Miner. "LOOK” TO YOUR CREDIT UNION FOR FINANCIAL NEEDS!
