0 Comments

 
Did you know that AFSCME Local 2960 has it's own Honor Guard?  Our Honor Guard has attended multiple funerals and Memorial Services in the last 2 years to represent our Union formally at these events.   We have an opportunity to provide volunteers at the upcoming Ragnar Relay Del Sol to raise funds for needed materials such as flags and other expenses.   The dates will be February 9th and 10th, and most likely in the Scottsdale or Mesa areas.   Please contact Union Officer and Honor Guard organizer Chris Radoian ASAP if you are available to help out.  This can be a family opportunity as some stations will allow volunteers 13 years and older.    He can be reached at cradoian@afscme2960.org

Changes to the FMLA Leave Process

12/28/2017

0 Comments

 
To all employees,

On November 29, 2017, the City Council adopted recommendations from the citywide Sick Leave Work Group to implement changes to FMLA leave.

Effective January 1, 2018, the current FMLA leave codes “F1” and “F2” will be eliminated from eCHRIS.  Under the new changes, employees will be able to choose whether to use FMLA leave from their available sick or vacation banks, whether the employee is caring for themselves or a qualifying family member.  Once the employee has identified which leave bank to use, FMLA leave will be designated under one of the following codes: “FMLA Sick” or “FMLA Vacation”.   This change allows the employees the freedom and flexibility to manage their FMLA leave and leave banks based upon their preferences.

Note: The employee is responsible for selecting whether to use “FMLA Sick” or “FMLA Vacation” leave code.  Additionally, the immediate supervisor has the ability to enter the employee’s requested leave code.

Please be advised that no changes have occurred with FMLA administration through FMLASource.  All current processes will continue to be administered as usual.  Please continue to follow your current call-in procedures.
If there are any questions or concerns, please contact your department HR Liaison or the FMLA Administration team at fmla@phoenix.gov.

BEWARE: Phishing & Phone Scam Targeting AFSCME Members

9/12/2017

0 Comments

 
​We have been made aware that a sophisticated phishing and phone scam appears to be targeting AFSCME membership. The email is coming from the scam email address info@afscme.us.com and urges members to fill out a form to avoid furlough days. The reported phone calls say that members owe money to AFSCME. Obviously, none of this is true.
 
These scams are not affiliated with AFSCME and the union has no control over them.
 
Please do the following:

  1. Alert your members to these scams as soon as possible.
  2. Urge them not to click on the “stop receiving email” link at the bottom of the email.
  3. Urge them not to respond, open any attachments or click any links.
  4. Urge them to delete the email and alert their IT department.
​
We are actively tracking down who is behind them. If you have any questions, please contact AFSCME IT hotline at 202-429-1122.
