SUBJECT: Transfer of Classes between Units Represented by the Same
Employee Organization RESOLUTION NO. 85/178
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION:
Amend Board Resolution 81/1165 to allow for transfer of classes between units
represented by the same employee organization by adding the following sub-
sections to Section 34-12.016 (Modification of Representation Units):
(b) (1) A majority representative may apply to transfer a
class(es) from one unit to another unit when it
represents both units by filing an application with
the Employee Relations Officer. The application
must include a written signature petition signed by
at least thirty percent of the employees in the
class(es) to be transferred, said signatures having
been executed and dated within forty-five days
before filing.
(2) The Employee Relations Officer shall determine the
appropriateness of the proposed transfer of the
class(es). If the Employee Relations Officer finds
that the proposed transfer is not appropriate, the
procedures set forth in Section 34-12.008 shall be
followed.
(3) If a written signature petition is filed and
approved, an election shall be held, as provided
for by Section 34-12.012(a). Only employees in a
class(es) proposed to be transferred from the unit
may vote. The transfer shall be approved if at
least 50% of the employees eligible to vote do vote
and a majority of those employees vote for the
transfer.
(4) If the written signature petition is signed by at
least fifty-one percent (51%) of employees in the
class(es) to be transferred, an election will not
be required and the Employee Relaitons Officer
shall finalize the transfer of the class(es) and
issue a written report of the action to the County
Board of Supervisors.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Staff time to periodically run an election.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND:
The classes of Operating Engineer and Stationary Boiler Operators are in the
General Services & Maintenance Bargaining Unit represented by Contra Costa
County Employees Association, Local No. 1. Employees in those classes believe
their "community of interest" is more in line with the Building Trades
Bargaining Unit rather than the General Services & Maintenance Bargaining Unit.
Currently, provisions of Board Resolution 81/1165 are silent with respect to
transferring classes between bargaining units represented by the same employee
organization. The additions cited below will provide for transfers of classes
between bargaining unit represented by the same organization.
All recognized employee organizations are in agreement with these modifications.
