Work issues & grievances

Weingarten rights
You have the right to request union representation during any meeting with management that could lead to discipline. If you're called into such a meeting, clearly state: "If this meeting could lead to discipline, I request my union representative be present." Management is not allowed to punish you for making this request. Always stand up for your rights—never go in alone! If you’d like to request a representative for a disciplinary meeting, you can reach out to a Local 3005 shop steward or grievance representative. 

Can I change my remote work days?
It depends on your supervisor. Please see the remote work pilot policy here.

How will budget cuts impact my employment?
Historically, city worker layoffs are rare, but unfortunately we don’t know for sure what will happen. Layoff procedures are covered in the Citywide contract on pages 57-59 (Section XVII Job Security).
