Your 008/005 bargaining units met with the Department over CalSAWS migration.
It’s the Department’s position that we are moving into maintenance and operations and are no longer under migration. We disagree.
The Department still lacks CalSAWS-based operational guides or user tools for our members. However, it has committed to obtaining SDO training material and allowing staff to utilize that information.
UPE proposed reinstatement of RDO schedules for those members who opted for telework until telework resumes. The Department offered no update on the return of telework, citing continued technology issues. The department stated they would consult and get back to us on that proposal.
The County stated help desk tickets were useful and encouraged staff to continue to submit when applicable. We will continue to update you as negotiations resume.
