New York City Plans to Reclassify IT Titles

Dear sisters and brothers:

I am writing to inform you of the Department of Citywide Administrative Services plan to change the Information Technology/Data Processing Civil Service titles to non-competitive titles. And I quote:

We need your continued support to save our Civil Service titles from being made into Non-competitive titles. It is important for you to have your voice heard. Many of your Local's Brothers and Sisters have made it possible for your voice to be heard by drafting letters to your State Assembly member and City Council Representatives.

The form letters supplied are quick and easy to fill out and will take no more than 5 minutes of your time.

You can still send an e-mail, a letter, or make a call.

Please see the notice for details.

The time is of the essence.

Please — get involved. We can change this one e-mail at a time, one letter at a time and one phone call at a time.

Thank you.

Robert Ajaye
Local 2627 President

IMPORTANT:
A Costly Promotion

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

You cannot be forced to take any position or promotion. You can not be forced to give up your civil service position to take a non-civil service position. If your agency changes or tries to change your civil service status without your permission, contact Local 2627 immediately. Be cautious, not all positions offered are protected DC37 or union positions.

In the February 27, 2009, Chief-Leader, page five, "Letters to the Editors." a letter to the editor titled "A Costly Promotion" describes how one Local 2627 member found that out that all that glitters is not gold.

Bereavement

Good and Welfare is generally flowers or a fruit basket sent to members that are seriously ill or members who suffer the death of an immediate family member or a new birth in the members immediate family. As I stated generally, there are some exceptions that we decide on as they occur.

When you send a request for Good and Welfare for a member you always have to include the member's name, agency and phone number. We need to know the where to send, the what to send and the who to send to.
