Employee Relations (ER) Responsibilities• Establish and maintain relations with bargaining unit

leadership representing MSU employees• Negotiate collective bargaining agreements• Administer and oversee adherence to collective

bargaining agreements• Assist and counsel supervisors and administrators

on contract interpretation, performance management/setting expectations and issuing discipline

58

Page 59: Financial Administrator Development Programforesource.msu.edu/_files/pdf/2016-17/May2017/HR.pdf · • Kathie Elliott, Professional and Organization Development • Jennie Yelvington,

Contract Administration• Derive rights from Management’s Rights

clauses. Contract regulates how you exercise those rights.

• Laws further limit rights (FMLA, ADA, ADEA, PERA)

• Clauses to be familiar with:o Probationary Languageo Layoff Languageo Filling of Vacancies

59

Page 60: Financial Administrator Development Programforesource.msu.edu/_files/pdf/2016-17/May2017/HR.pdf · • Kathie Elliott, Professional and Organization Development • Jennie Yelvington,

Probation and Trial PeriodKnow what probation/trial period length applies –Talent Management will assist with timelines

o Probation• APA, APSA, Nurses, CCLP (former FOP) – one year• CTU - 1040 hours worked (full-time, prorated for others)• 1585, 324, 999 – 1040 hours worked and six months (some

proration)

o Trial (does not apply to reclassifications)• APA – Six months• APSA, Nurses – Six months• CCLP – One year• CTU – 256 hours worked

60

Probation and Trial PeriodsRepresent the majority of “urgent” cases in ER• APA and APSA require interim evaluations• CTU requires evaluation at conclusion of probation• Best practices would dictate that all employees receive

ongoing and specific feedback• The halfway point is a great place for a supervisor to

evaluate

EXTENSIONS AND TERMINATIONS REQUIRE ER AGREEMENT! (Extensions require two-week notice to ER and may also require Union concurrence)

Page 62: Financial Administrator Development Programforesource.msu.edu/_files/pdf/2016-17/May2017/HR.pdf · • Kathie Elliott, Professional and Organization Development • Jennie Yelvington,

Layoff Language

• Contract language defines employees’ rights to other employment opportunities through either “bumping” or “bypass”

• Used during financial hardship or restructuring of duties

• Never to be used to address performance issues

62

Page 63: Financial Administrator Development Programforesource.msu.edu/_files/pdf/2016-17/May2017/HR.pdf · • Kathie Elliott, Professional and Organization Development • Jennie Yelvington,

Filling of Vacancies

Contract language prescribes how long positions will be posted and in some cases, who may be selected for interview.

63

Page 64: Financial Administrator Development Programforesource.msu.edu/_files/pdf/2016-17/May2017/HR.pdf · • Kathie Elliott, Professional and Organization Development • Jennie Yelvington,

Conflict AvoidanceThere is probably a performance issue which needs to be addressed when:

o Duties and responsibilities are being moved to reduce interactions or errors

o Others are refusing to take work to the employeeo The employee is being reassignedo There is talk of staff reductions – of a specific positiono There has been a physical move, rearrangement of the office,

doors closedo Staff are “coordinating” absenceso Staff are “going around” the supervisoro Communication is through email, avoidance

of face-to-face conversation

64

Page 65: Financial Administrator Development Programforesource.msu.edu/_files/pdf/2016-17/May2017/HR.pdf · • Kathie Elliott, Professional and Organization Development • Jennie Yelvington,

LiabilitiesThe impact of neglecting these opportunities to address performance

o Irritation, stress, conflicto Delay or failure in meeting deadlineso “Product” isn’t best qualityo Internal issues become publico “Invites” external parties to review your operation (Union, General

Counsel, Internal Audit, Arbitrator, Outside Agencies)o Time!o Records collection, review and releaseo Financial settlementso Unwanted turnovero Place yourself “on the radar” of union

Prevention and Early InterventionWhen ER and the supervisor partner early on for case management:

o Reduction in “urgency of cases”o Improved understanding of timing of interventions and

level of responseo Reduces number of administrators involved or at least

time spento Pre-emptive efforts = stronger cases = stronger

university positionBehavioral Threat Assessment Team (BTAT) involvement?

Continuum of Performance Management• Coaching• Counseling• Written Record of a Verbal Warning• Written Reprimand• Suspension (long and short)• Discharge

Formal discipline: triggers right to union representation and right to grieve
