City v. DC37, 16 OCB 46 (BOC 1975)[Decision No. 46-75 (Con. Cert.)] OFFICE OF COLLECTIVE BARGAINING BOARD OF CERTIFICATION --------------------------------- x In the Matter of THE CITY OF NEW YORK, Petitioner, DECISION NO. 46-75 -and-DISTRICT COUNCIL 37, AFSCME, DOCKET NO. RE-56-75 AFL-CIO, AND ITS AFFILIATED LOCALS, Respondent. --------------------------------- x DECISION AND INTERLOCUTORY ORDER CONSOLIDATING CERTIFICATIONS On June 19, 1975, the New York City Office of Labor Relations filed a petition requesting the consolidation into one bargaining unit of fifty separate units represented by District Council 37, AFSCME, AFL-CIO (DC 37) and/or its affiliated locals. 1 The City states that all of the employees in the above-noted units are in titles either now covered under the single City-Wide Contract for those conditions which must be uniform City-wide or receive equivalent benefits, and that, since all of the certifications in question are now held by DC 37 or its affiliates, all such employees have a single community of interest which justifies consolidation into a single bargaining unit. 1 The City's petition was later amended to withdraw a unit of book repairers and to include two additional DC 37 units of Student Center custodial employees and certain City University clerical employees.
DECISION No. 46-75 2 DOCKET NO. RE-56-75 The City declares that the proposed consolidated unit is consistent with the decisions and policies of the Board of Certification and, if adopted, would further the efficient operation of the public service and enhance sound labor relations. The City states that the proposed consolidation would avert the proliferation of bargaining units, minimize the possibility of whipsawing and leapfrogging of settlements, and reduce the number of contracts which require negotiation and administration, thereby enabling the City to bargain more effectively and better project its labor costs. The City requests that, if the Board of Certification should decline to approve the proposed single unit, the Board "consolidate the listed certifications into units based upon broad occupational groups which would further the end of sound labor relations and comport with previous Board decisions. . .” On September 22, 1975, DC 37 filed an Affirmation in Opposition to the City's Petition to Consolidate. It asserts that the City's petition has not fully considered the criteria to be applied by the Board of Certification. DC 37 contends that the right of employees to bargain on wages, hours, and working conditions "would be severely limited if all of the titles represented by District Council 37 or its affiliates were thrown into one hodge-podge unit
DECISION No. 46-75 3 DOCKET NO. RE-56-75 consisting of white collar, blue collar, professional and institutional employees." DC 37 further argues that the fact that all of the affected titles are covered by the City-Wide Contract or receive equivalent benefits does not establish a community of interest since many other employees represented by other employee organizations also are covered by the City-Wide Contract and that the "City-wide bargaining community of interest does not obliterate the strong community of interest shared by employees in the same occupational groupings." DC 37 points out that its organizational structure is designed to embrace a broad spectrum of occupational groups consisting of professional, blue collar, white collar and institutional employees, and that DC 37 does not now propose, nor has it ever proposed, to bargain for all such employees as a single unit. DC 37 declares that the history of bargaining does not support the City's petition but, in effect emphasizes the separate interests of the various occupational groups. DC 37 rejects the City's arguments concerning the "efficient operation of the public service and sound labor relations" and contends that such criteria cannot, in the instant case, be the basis for denying the rights of self-determination
DECISION No. 46-75 4 DOCKET NO. RE-56-75 guaranteed to employees by the Taylor Law and the New York City Collective Bargaining Law (NYCCBL). DC 37 further argues that there is no evidence of whipsawing or leap-frogging to justify the proposed consolidation. It declares that the Board's policy of consolidation "should only be followed when it is possible to do so without severe dislocation or inequities," and therefore "what the City is requesting is actually a complete reversal of Board decisions and policies." Lastly, D.C. 37 argues that the proposal would combine supervisory and non-supervisory and professional and non-professional employees, and that such combinations cannot be instituted against the wishes of the affected employees. The Civil Service Technical Guild., Local 375, AFSCME, AFL-CIO, the certified collective bargaining representative for some of the titles in question, also filed objections. The Guild asserts that while it is affiliated with DC 37 as a matter of identification, its certificates do not run to D.C. 37. It declares that such affiliation "does not per se establish a community of interest within the meaning and intent of Rule 2.10b" and moreover "expressly excludes interference with the autonomy of any affiliate, particularly its right to bargain on non-City-wide matters."
DECISION No. 46-75 5 DOCKET NO. RE-56-75 The Guild contends that the proposed consolidation is not consistent with prior unit determinations made by the Board of Certification and would result in the loss of the fullest freedom of its members to exercise their collective bargaining rights. DISCUSSION Section 1173-5.0b(l) of the NYCCBL gives the Board of Certification the power and duty "to make final determinations of the units appropriate for purposes of collective bargaining between public employers and public employee organizations." The criteria employed by the Board of Certification in unit determinations are set forth in Rule 2.10 of the Consolidated Rules: "§2.10 Appropriate Units--Determination. In determining appropriate bargaining units, the Board will consider, among other factors: a. Which unit will assure public employees the fullest freedom in the exercise of the rights granted under the statute and the applicable executive order; b. The community of interest of the employees;
DECISION No. 46-75 6 DOCKET NO. RE-56-75 c. The history of collective bargaining in the unit, among other employees of the public employer, and in similar public employment; d. The effect of the unit on the efficient operation of the public service and sound labor relations." The Board has deemed this statutory authority to be sufficiently broad to warrant its finding as appropriate, units other than those sought by the parties in a particular case. 2 This interpretation of its statutory authority is consistent with the Court of Appeal's ruling in Civil Service Employees Association v. Helsby (303 NYS 2d 690, 1969). 3 The Board believes that the adoption of a single monolithic bargaining unit, as proposed by the City, would tend to smother the legitimate interests of employees who embrace a broad spectrum of occupations and skills by depriving them of meaningful collective bargaining representation at the unit level. While we recognize that the employees involved have a common interest in City-wide subjects of bargaining which are required by law to be uniform, we are 2 See Board Decision Nos. 4-69, 14-73, 46-73. 3 The Court of Appeals affirmed the Appellate Division decision which held: "...the statute [Taylor Law] expressly authorizes the Board to establish appropriate employer-employee negotiating units, applying those standards prescribed by the Legislature. Such determination must be made by providing a resolution of a particular dispute as to representation status on petitions filed with it pursuant to §205, but we do not construe the Board's function as being limited to a review of the employer's designation or to approving or disapproving units proposed by the parties to the dispute." (emphasis added)
DECISION No. 46-75 7 DOCKET NO. RE-56-75 not convinced that this “community of interest” extends to unit subjects of bargaining, such as wages, which are not subject to any City-wide uniformity requirement. However, a continuation of the still unduly fragmented status quo, with the resultant delays and unnecessary duplications in bargaining, would not be in line with our policy of favoring orderly consolidations. 4 Having considered the City’s alternative proposal to “consolidate the listed certifications into units based upon broad occupational groups,” the Board proposes the establishment of twelve occupationally-related units. 5 (See page 9 and Appendix). 4 Since early 1968 the Board has pursued a policy aimed at developing a structure of bargaining that is at once coherent and viable. The number of bargaining units in the City has been reduced from approximately 400 to the present figure, not including the reductions effected by this decision, of 167, by consolidating units along broad occupational lines and curbing the proliferations of additional groups by accreting new titles to existing units having a community of interest. 5 The establishment of bargaining units along occupational lines has been an approach followed nation-wide. In Wisconsin, the legislature established fourteen (14) statewide units reflecting different occupational groupings (GERR RF-91, 51:5811, 1974); in Hawaii, the legislature created thirteen (13) statewide occupational units (GERR RF-95, 51:2015, 1975). The Massachusetts Labor Relations Commission has created ten (10) statewide units along occupational lines (598 GERR E-1, 1975). It should be noted that it all of the above states, the units created encompass all employees subject to collective bargaining. The New York State Public Employment Relations Board, when faced with the problem of determining appropriate bargaining units for all state employees, excluding members of the state police and professional employees of the State University of New York, established five (5) broad occupational units (1 PERB 3226, 1968).
DECISION No. 46-75 8 DOCKET NO. RE-56-75 We are convinced that our proposal will not deny the affected employees the fullest freedom in the exercise of their right to choose a bargaining representative, since they are all represented by or affiliated with the same labor organization, namely DC 37. Moreover, an employee's right to self-determination is not an unqualified one but is limited to the selection of a desired collective bargaining representative for the unit deemed appropriate by the Board. With respect to the objections of both DC 37 and the Guild concerning the creation of units consisting of combinations of supervisory and non-supervisory and professional and non-professional employees, the Board points out that in most of the units involved in this case, such combinations already exist and, in many instances, were actively sought, in prior representation cases, by the unions in question. In addition, the Board emphasizes that it has the statutory responsibility to consider not only the wishes of the employees involved, but also the wishes and needs of the public employer for efficient operations and sound labor relations. We are persuaded that our policy of favoring consolidations into broad-based occupational units is consistent with our statutory mandate and will enhance the purposes of the NYCCBL. The Board is authorized to apportion to the criteria set forth in Rule 2.10 whatever weight it deems wise in a
DECISION No. 46-75 9 DOCKET NO. RE-56-75 particular case. 6 In establishing the proposal herein, we have taken into consideration, among other factors, the history of bargaining, which necessarily includes bargaining by various local unions having a common professional and occupational interest, e.g., Civil Service Technical Guild, Local 375, and Local 371, representing Social Services, both of which groups have had a long history of bargaining for occupa-tionally-related titles. As a result of the exhaustive analysis of existing certifications and bargaining contracts in which the Board has been engaged for several years, together with careful consideration of the parties' arguments herein, we propose the formulation of the following twelve (12) broad-based occupational units: (See Appendix for more detailed description.) 1. Social Service 2. Institutional Service 3. Clerical 4. Accounting and Statistical 5. Business Inspection 6. Health Services 7. Custodial 8. General Maintenance 9. Parks and Public Works 10. Engineering and Scientific 11. Real Estate 12. Motor Vehicle Operation 6 Board Decision No. 61-71.
DECISION No. 46-75 10 DOCKET NO. RE-56-75 All consolidations shall be subject to existing contracts. Following the practice established in earlier consolidation cases, the harmonization of differing contract expiration dates will be left to the parties for resolution at future negotiations. The City, DC 37, the Civil Service Technical Guild, and any of the other affected local unions, shall be allowed ten (10) days from the date of this determination in which to serve and file written objections, if any, as to why the Board should not certify the twelve (12) units proposed herein. O R D E R NOW, THEREFORE, pursuant to the powers vested in the Board of Certification by the New York City Collective Bargaining Law, it is hereby ORDERED, that, effective October 17, 1975, all Certifications heretofore issued for the titles listed in the Appendix to this Decision and Interlocutory Order shall be terminated and superseded by the following Certifications:
DECISION No. 46-75 11 DOCKET NO. RE-56-75 A. Social Service B. Institutional Service C. Clerical D. Accounting and Statistical E. Business Inspection F. Health Services G. Custodial H. General Maintenance I. Parks and Public Works J. Engineering and Scientific K. Real Estate L.
