UNIT MEMBER RIGHTS.
A. The District and Association recognize the right of employees to form, join, and participate in lawful activities of employee organizations and the equal alternative right of employees to refuse to form, join and participate in employee organization activities.
B. The District recognizes the rights of unit members to take or refrain from taking a stand on political issues and to support or oppose any issue or candidate. Such activities, however, must be conducted on unit members’ own time and off District premises. Unit members will make every effort to show that they are acting in good faith and are not representing the District.
C. The District and the Association agree that all unit members are entitled to equal employment opportunity. The District and Association will not discriminate against any unit member on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, ancestry, sex, age (over 40), medical condition (cancer), mental disability, physical disability (including HIV and AIDS), marital status, sexual orientation, or veteran status, in any of its policies, procedures or practices. Allegations of discrimination should be forwarded to the Chief Human Resources Officer (CHRO) in accordance with established District policies and procedures.
D. The District and Association agree to maintain a work environment free from hostility, bullying (e.g. humiliation, intimidation, demeaning/insulting comments, name calling, spreading of rumors, and repeated shunning), threats, and/or verbal and non-verbal violence. Whether an environment is hostile or abusive depends on a totality of circumstances including, but not limited to, factors such as the frequency of the conduct, the severity of the conduct, the degree to which the conduct is physically threatening or humiliating, and the degree to which the conduct unreasonably interferes with an employee’s work performance. Reporting of such incidents will be free from reprisal or retaliation.
E. The District recognizes the Association as the exclusive representative for making classified unit member appointments to committees involved in the Collegial Consultation Process. It also encourages unit members to participate in the formation of policies affecting them through active involvement in these committees (Education Code 70901.2).
UNIT MEMBER RIGHTS. The District shall not discriminate against a Unit Member on the basis of race, color, creed, age, sex, national origin, political affiliation, domicile, marital status, sexual orientation, physical handicap, or membership or participation in the activities of the Association or the exercise of other rights afforded to them through Government Code Sections 3540 et. seq. and the interpretations thereof by the California Public Employment Relations Board or Courts. For purposes of this Article, the word "discriminate" also subsumes the definitions and meanings of the words "retaliation" and "reprisal" in addition to its other ordinary meanings.
UNIT MEMBER RIGHTS. No adverse action shall be taken against unit members for participation/non-participation in AASD activities so long as proper procedures have been followed in securing access to those activities.
UNIT MEMBER RIGHTS. The unit member shall return to the same job assignment if the leave ends within the time designated by the physician in the first Medical Verification. A different assignment may be made if agreed to by the unit member and the employer. Following a maternity leave which extends beyond the total of three (3) months, whenever practical and agreeable to the employer and the unit member, the member will return to the same job assignment.
