Regarding the Checks . . .

In a meeting on October 11 2007 between CIM Management , CIM Personnel and CCPOA ....CCPOA was told by the beginning of the year new policies were to be started, checks were only to be issued on the 15th and payday only .... there would be some exceptions such as days off and Vacations but Management and Personnel feel they don't have a responsibility to leave pay checks in areas where they are not secured or signed for or opened by anyone other than who the check is issued by...
CCPOA stated Bu6 members have a right to have their checks available to them after they have earn them ... Personnel also stated they were going to have checks in a central location on paydays instead of at the facilities ...they suggested MSF visiting , CCPOA again protested that the BU 6 members have a right to receive their checks in a timely manor during working hours ...Personnel staff seemed to be willing to accept the idea of Personnel staff going to each facility to issue checks .... CCPOA stated we felt that impeding staff from getting their checks in a timely manor such as having to go to a central area to stand in line after their shift was unreasonable they stated before they changed policy they would meet with us again .... CCPOA told personnel and Management that Debra Turner brought this idea to Gary Clark when he was chapter president in 2000 , we agreed with the idea do personnel staff coming to each facility to issue checks, this idea was shot down by then Warden Lori Decarlo.

We will keep you apprised of any developments on this issue......
