CalHR is “disappointed?”

GOOD

Remember how California scientists finally got a contract with some minor raises after many years of nothing? Today CalHR proposed to:
- defer our 2026 raise to 2027
- eliminate our 2025 raise entirely

What's the point of a union when the state can just tell them that their contract doesn't matter?

News: Today, on behalf of affected state employees, #SEIULocal1000 and President Anica Walls filed a lawsuit against Governor Gavin Newsom and CalHR, challenging the legality of the #RTOmandate.

State workers turned out en masse to protest Newsom’s executive order in front of CalHR to say ‘Hell no to RTO!’

And the best sign award goes to 🥇

Happy holidays, everyone!

… except CalHR. I hope Krampus takes a crap in your collective shoes.

“how many months of work experience do you have” my brother in Christ calHR i was a seasonal farm worker starting at 12 years old

It’s amusing in a sad sort of way to watch CalHR try to scare us by claiming that striking is prohibited blah blah blah.

this is not to absolve newsom of anything but calHR was always extremely stingy and reactionary about telework; i knew someone at calPERS who only got one day a week and he was special, and they basically had to be forced at gunpoint to authorize fulltime telework when the pandemic hit in earnest

My union is in negotiations with the State of CaliforniaI and the state has rejected our economic proposal once again, so I made a tool to explore our wage history. No surprise, California has systematically unpaid state worker for 50 years.

one of my friends moved but she was with DOF from 2017-2021 and she told me calHR was fucking terrible about telework in the Before Times

CAPS-UAW 1115 just had to file an Unfair Practices Charge against the Newsome admin earlier this year. Our negotiators were told if they didn't accept CalHR terms on pay cuts in new budget, they'd be imposed without discussion. Now collective bargaining is sacrosanct? Very convenient.

The @seiu1000.bsky.social state workers' tour of California continued today, with an informational picket outside the CalHR office in Sacramento! State workers won't stop until they have a contract that includes fair pay, affordable healthcare and telework that works!

CalHR needs to hear from us loud and clear: State workers will not be silenced. We need to demand respect and protect our rights. ✊

For all the talk about Gavin’s podcast, what’s even more telling for me is that he saw Trump/Vought’s illegal RTO and thought “oh yeah we should do that too”

FedUp #CaStateScientists who protect public health & environment, went on a statewide 3-day Strike. @Gavinnewsom.bsky.social doesn’t #ValueScientists & his BDOs spread false info on the strike to try & scare Scientists! Can PERB be an unbiased 3rd party & school CalHR on impasse & unions’ rights?

Yeah, CAPS withdrew it after CalHR completely folded. Is the fact that the admin backed down from their completely indefensible initial attitude because we stood firm supposed to be to their credit? Newsom has not been an advocate for state workers. And I won't crab bucket my fellow state workers.
