CDCR will provide employees in peace officer classifications who are in overage classifications (overstaffed in their classification at their location) and facing layoff with an opportunity to participate in the SWB and bid for identified vacancies within their current classifications statewide, thereby taking action they believe may benefit them. This is in accordance with the Realignment Side Letter Agreement between CDCR and CCPOA.
Employees are provided with information about projected reductions and current identified vacancies by location and classification, and other information, such as seniority scores, to help them make their determination as to whether to participate in the SWB and in choosing options. The reduction and vacancy information is posted on the OWP website (Over/Under Report). Each employee may choose whether to participate. However, if an employee elects to participate and is awarded a position, the employee is required to report. The employee’s election to participate is binding and non-revocable.
Please view your Bargaining Unit’s Side Letter Agreement for specific information about the SWB: http://layoffs.insidecdcr.ca.gov/labor-agreements/.
