BREAKING NEWS ABOUT THE ARB!

From Fred Stevens, Vice President
Chino Chapter
CCPOA

The state controller’s office will deposit a $200,000,000.00 check in a CCPOA account on Monday January 29, 2007. Then the state controller has 30 days to provide a list to CCPOA for all available recipients of the settlement. CCPOA then has 30 days to compare the verification forms returned by the membership. If there are and differences then the member will be contacted. After another 10 days the state controller will start cutting the checks. In all it will take from 70 to 90 days to receive your check.

You will be paid for each qualifying month that you worked 11 or more days. Holiday time vacation time and approved workers comp will get you that seniority point. If you have a pending workers comp and you did not receive a seniority point you will not get paid from this settlement.

If it does get approved at a later time it will be up to you and or your attorney to get a settlement from the state. If you have suspensions or have been terminated and you win your case and get your Job back you must get this money in your settlement with the state. All the moneys in this settlement must be paid in 90 days. CCPOA can not hold any for any reason CIM CCPOA will have the pay arb. verification forms on or about Jan 30, you will also soon be able to get a copy of that form on the CCPOA web site. This form will be used to compare what the state controllers office provides to CCPOA.

Over time will not be a factor in the amount you receive. The money was a settlement not back pay. However most CCPOA members will receive more then they would have received if they had calculated the overtime in. It is estimated that each member will receive from $5,000.00 to $7,000.00 dollars. 10 over times per month would have gotten you $800.00 the amount you receive will be above that. In fact you would have had to make more then $110,000.00 for this to affect you. Once all is said and done over 90% of the membership will have more than what a retro check would have gotten them.

IMPORTANT: there are 600 CCPOA members in the state that did not get inputed into the controllers computers. What this means is you will receive a retro check and the raise on your check at the end of February.

In all we received a 30% increase over the life of our last MOU.

CCPOA has set up a toll free hot line ware you talk to a live person for any questions. The number is 1-877-pay-arb6 or 1-877-729-2726

Walking with you on the toughest beat in the State,

Fred
