Subject: Official inquiry in Philadelphia Disbursement SRT Settlement funds From: fatfats@yahoo.com To: vzimmerman@apwu.org; dir@phillyapwu.com; devin grosh@nirb.gov Date: Wednesday, April 11, 2018, 2:32:37 AM EDT National Director of Industrial Relations Zimmerman, on behalf of the membership Local 89 we thank your Office for its ‘efforts in the resolution of the SRT Class Action Settlement. In continuance of inquiry jointly initiated 12/22/17, to both your office and Local 89 Director of Industrial Relations L.Henderson respectively. "As told to” Pres. Casselli "by the National” and then reported to General membership meeting 2/16/18 (affimed in minutes dated 3/15/18) : ‘A) In four (4) months (rom 2/15/18) approx by June 2018 8) $3.3milion will be dispersed from National to ALL Local 89 affected clerks by check separate from normal payroll. C) Included and compensated according to Seniority will be BOTH retirees and non-members. D) NOTHING was specifically stated at said meeting regarding PSE'S on the rolls during the inclusive dates of volation. IF the above stated is accurate, factual and true: 1) How was it determined that Philadelphia clerks would receie $3.3 million? Again IF Casseli’s assertion of that sum is accurate |s this disbursement proportionate to the violation? There's an exact dollar figure as to how much each municipality was impacted. Despite "settling down": shouldnt the ratio of municipal monetary award allocation maintain that proportionality? 2) In the interest of solidarity and upholding the reputation of the APWU, nationally and locally. Will there be a published formulaic breakdown reflecting Local 88's reporting of the names, EIN's, seniority dates and impacted hours of each recipient. Anything other than complete transparency and disclosure would be injurious to the reputation of the APWU! Even more will result in a Local 89 membership mass exodus similar to that following the 2006 mishandling of the "casual -in liou" of monetary disbursement debacle. 3) Is there any pet-existing labor law's. Wherein a members confidentiality is violated by full and complete transparency and disclosure of ALL parties receiving monetary grievance settlements? That's Casselli and Henderson's purported alibi as to why NO WRITTEN accounting of grievance payments have been rendered in Local 89 2048 Class Action Monetary payouts, Stated as being over $1million at General Membership Meeting, with per-arbitration settlement of 2014-2015 Class Action violations pending 4) Could you provide clarity on the phrase * to be named by the Union..." and the 10% held in USPS escrow. Many members are deeply troubled by this settlement language. What prohibits the membership from questioning its elected offcials as to how they conduct our business? Custodians not being "made whole" from a Nationally disbursed $8.64 million settlement dated 12/11/14 is deeply troubling, alarming and disturbing to the entire membership! Especially Clerks facing awaiting similar monetary disbursement in this matter. 5) Lastly President Caselli vigorously asserted that PSE'S are in no way entitled to this settlement. In the interest of what's right, fair and just. One could reasonably argue however that: 1a) Management clearly demonstrated a stafing need. As per PSE LMOU language could have been filed by PSE's ; b) Mots refusal to use PSE's in stafing SRT violations negatively impacted PSE conversion to regulars; c) Arbitrator Goldberg ordered Postal Support Employees (PSE’s) to be paid in his June 7, 2017 Award. Settled for $49milion as POstPlan Staffing Violation Remedy Agreement - Case No. Q10C-4Q-C 15206043 dated 2/9/18 (see attached) Non -response will be forwarded to the National Labor Relations Board. As Local 89 membership eagerly awaits and is relying upon your reply in verification... 1
