I have three questions. Firstly, if the Union has identified a particular need for requested information. The EU`s request was long and detailed (although repeated) and indicated that it would use the necessary information to prove treaty violations in two specific complaints for arbitration. In addition, the Union stated that it was reviewing similar complaints from staff in other bargaining units and therefore needed information from all bargaining units to demonstrate at conciliation hearings that the Agency applied its performance standards differently and unfairly in violation of the collective agreement. In addition, the Union has demonstrated that it needs information worth two years to prove that the Agency has committed wrongdoing. As the Union had explained in detail the need for information requested, it found a particular need. During the signing, Director Samuels stated that this collective agreement belongs to us to all those who work for the Office. It took us many years to grow, but we stood firm and produced something we can all be proud of. National CPL President Young said this is an important milestone for all of us who have been a long time in manufacturing. The respondent is an agency within the meaning of section 7103 A, point 3), of the statute. Mr. Stip. The American Federation of Government Employees, Council of Prison Locals 33, AFL-CIO (Council), is the exclusive representative of a national staff negotiation unit of the Federal Bureau of Prisons.
Id. 2. The Union, a labour organisation within the meaning of Article 7103 A.4) of the statute, is an agent of the Council for the purpose of representing the staff of the tariff units at the FCC in Petersburg. The Council and the Federal Bureau of Prisons are parties to a collective agreement known as Masteragrement. [1] ID. With regard to its representation missions, the Union stated that it was „the responsibility of the Union to monitor [the performance evaluation programme] and to ensure equal treatment of the members we represent.“ Id. at 6. In this context, the Union cited Article 14 (d) of the Captain`s Treaty, which states that „the employer undertakes to provide the information requested by the Union on the performance assessment programme and the distribution of credit ratings when a valid application is made in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 7114, point b) (4)“.
Jt Ex. 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The Agency rejected the request and argued that the information was not adequately available and that the Union had not identified any particular need for information. The parties then established, among other things, that the Agency manages the requested information electronically. The case refers to a request for information from the Union regarding complaints filed on behalf of two staff members: Jawan Banks, a unit secretary in the management department of the FCC`s Petersburg unit, and Kelly Blankenship, a corrections specialist. 9-10, 13-14. On the basis of the protocol in this case, I will make the following factual findings, legal findings and recommendations.
The Bureau of Prisons employs more than 39,000 prison experts who protect society and reduce crime by operating safe prisons and preparing inmates to be productive, law-abiding citizens once released. On October 9, 2014, the American Federation of Government Employees, Council of Prison Locals 33, Local 2052, AFL-CIO (the Charging Party or Union) filed an unfair work practice (ULP) against the Department of Justice, the Federal Bureau of Prisons, the FCC Petersburg, VA (Agency, Respondent or FCC De Petersburg). Jt Ex. 1 (a). After reviewing the indictment on March 10, 2015, the Regional Director of the FLRA REGION in Washington made public, on behalf of FLRA`s General Counsel (GC), a complaint and a hearing statement in which he stated that the Agency had violated the information it had requested from Sections 7116(a) (5) and (8) of the Statute.
