- JOINT
STATEMENT
FROM
MANAGEMENT
ORGANIZATIONS
INCLUDING
ACSA AND
CASBO
The joint
statement below was
discussed with the
SDUSD’s Labor
Relations Department
this morning.
The District’s
response is that
they believe that
any agreements made
thus far are in
accordance with this
joint
statement.
Message
from
ACSA
- At
a
time
when
the
academic,
physical,
emotional,
and
mental
well-being
of
our
students
and
employees
are
paramount,
management
organizations
like
the
Association
of
California
School
Administrators,
California
Association
of
School
Business
Officials,
California
County
Superintendents
Educational
Services
Association
and
the
California
School
Boards
Association
have
been
collaborating
with
labor
organizations,
our
state
Superintendent
of
Public
Instruction,
and
representatives
for
Gov.
Gavin
Newsom
to
help
districts
more
expeditiously
and
seamlessly
implement
their
plans
for
providing
high-quality
distance
learning,
serving
meals,
caring
for
younger
students
and
paying
employees.
This
joint
document
provides
agreed-upon
basic
principles
of
current
school
priorities
and
is
meant
to
serve
as
a
framework
for
labor-management
collaboration.
This
document
is
not
intended
to
abrogate,
revise
or
affect
any
current
law,
regulation
or
executive
order;
nor
does
it
purport
to
be
official
guidance
from
the
California
Department
of
Education.
The
framework
intends
to
assist
those
parties
who
are
working
to
reach
agreement
and
is
not
intended
to
be
used
to
disturb
any
memoranda
of
understanding
already
reached
between
local
education
agencies
and
bargaining
units.
The
intent
is
to
clarify
and
promote
the
following:
- Especially
in
these
times,
we
should
be
collaborating
and
consulting
with
our
labor
partners
regarding
assignments,
workloads
and
public
health
concerns.
- Paying
employees
through
2019-2020
is
contingent
upon
schools,
county
offices
of
education
and
colleges
receiving
their
full-year
funding.
- If
employees
are
paid
through
2019-2020,
classified
and
certificated
employees
should
be
expected
to
complete
any
assignment
that
is
reasonably
similar
to
their
assignments
before
COVID-19
and
any
additional
assignments
would
need
to
be
negotiated
at
the
appropriate
time.
- While
there
is
an
acknowledgment
that
emergency
declarations,
to
date,
have
not
suspended
obligations
to
bargain,
both
management
and
labor
organizations
agree
that
the
priority
must
be
essential
service
to
the
public
while
maintaining
employee
safety.
Management
and
labor
organizations
agree
that
providing
essential
service
to
the
public
may
result
in
the
need
to
take
significant
and
time-sensitive
actions,
and
while
those
essential
services
may
trigger
the
obligation
to
bargain,
that
bargaining
should
happen
as
soon
as
practicable,
but
not
in
place
of impeding
the
provision
of
the
essential
services
to
the
public.
- Local
Education
Agencies
should
not
deduct
from
accrued
leave
in
the
case
of
COVID-19
health-related
absences.
If
an
absence
is
not
COVID-19
health-related,
accrued
leave
may
be
deducted
unless
an
employee
has
dependent-care
needs.
In
that
event,
accrued
leave
may
be
deducted
only
after
the
employer
has
offered
no-cost
childcare
and
the
employee
has
refused.
- Currently,
school
district
and
county
office
of
education
employees
have
not
been
ordered
to
report
to
work
as
disaster
service
workers
pursuant
to
Gov’t
Code § 3100.
If
at
any
point
Gov’t.
Code § 3100
is
effectuated,
this
framework
was
not
intended
to
apply
and
should
not
be
applied
to
disaster
service
worker
assignments.
Our
organizations
recognize
the
extreme
challenges
our
respective
members
face
in
these
unprecedented
times.
Our
coalition
is
committed
to
continuing
to
work
on
your
behalf
to
ensure
you
have
the
support
you
need
to
serve
our
state’s
students.
