MNPEA Update

I met with the MNPEA board today. Here's the scoop.

The County is being emailed a list of the stewards. I'm restored as Chief Steward. This is in effect until a steward election is held. A nomination sheet will go up within a week.

They will have meetings with the members ASAP

I passed on the following as important issues for our group. Feel free to add more when they meet with all of us.

1. Steward Elections
2. Contract
3. Sick Time
4. Night Shift differentials
5. 28 day schedule issues
6. Unresolved past grievances

By weeks end they will be dropping off grievance forms. Cards are being printed with important numbers for members.

In solidarity,
Wade Laszlo
Chief Steward

P.S. All Detention Deputies and Techs are being considered members and were covered by the MNPEA Legal Defense Plan effective Saturday July 29th. Click on the link and familiarize yourself with it. You now have on and off duty protection. You are also entitled to bring our attorney with you to I.A.
