MCGEO-MNCPPC Charge - COVID 19 Policy and Questionnaire
MCGEO-MNCPPC Charge - COVID 19 Policy and Questionnaire
1
Although Exhibit A is titled as a “bargaining proposal,” the Commission informed MCGEO that it was going to
unilaterally implement the policy based on the “management rights’ clause under the parties’ collective bargaining
agreement.
responded to “(c) I decline to answer” received the following message: “NOTE: THIS OPTION
IS NOW DISABLED BECAUSE DISCLOSURE IS REQUIRED.” (See Exhibit B). Upon
information and belief, those members who declined to complete the altered questionnaire were
threatened with disciplinary action including written reprimands.
Again, by inserting unilateral changes into a questionnaire after negotiations with the
MCGEO, the Commission engaged in bad faith bargaining. Thus, MCGEO seeks all make whole
relief including a cease-and-desist order requiring the Commission to revoke: its command
prohibiting unvaccinated MCGEO members from working; the unilaterally altered questionnaire;
and any threatened or actual disciplinary action involving MCGEO members with respect to the
unilateral COVID vaccination policy and the failure to answer the unilaterally altered
questionnaire.
Respectfully Submitted,
