Attention ACSS members and fellow state excluded employees,
We need your help!
Your ACSS is - as always - committed to preventing attacks on your career. We are preparing to meet with Governor Brown to discuss how his proposed 4-day, 38-hour workweek will unfairly target supervisors, managers, and confidential employees.
We recognize that the reduced workweek will affect all of you personally: It will affect the way you pay your mortgage, the way you raise your children, the way you plan for retirment, and so much more.
However, in order for us to make a successful case against the reduced workweek that will resonate with the public, we need to show how California will suffer if the plan goes into place.
We need to present the Governor and the public with facts. Specifically, we need to show how the reduced workweek will impact California taxpayers.
This is your chance to fight for your career and you can do it from the comfort of your own desk.
Take a moment out of your day and email us:
- Historical proof that furloughs don't work
How did the previous furloughs impact your office's/facility's/department's ability to serve taxpayers? Be specific and give us numbers and facts. (e.g., "Wait times tripled at our DMV branch")
- Educated guesses about how the 4-day workweek won't work
How will the 4-day workweek directly impact your office's/facility's/department's ability to serve taxpayers? Be specific and give us numbers and facts whenever possible. (e.g., "Tax returns will take twice as long to process." or "We will be able to hold approximately 33% fewer hearings per month.")
Thanks for taking the time to fight for your career. We understand how difficult it is to have your livelihood under constant attack.
