Murphy to the Public Employee Relations Board (PERB) and the nomination of Patricia Hobson Wilson to the Office of Employee Appeals (OEA).  The public roundtable will be held on Tuesday, January 14, 2014, at 11:00 A.M., in Room 120 of the John A. Wilson Building, 1350 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW. This notice has been revised to reflect a change in location.  The hearing was previously scheduled to be held in room 120, it will now be held in room 123.

 

The Public Employee Relations Board (PERB) and the Office of Employee Appeals (OEA) are independent agencies of the District of Columbia created by the Comprehensive Merit Personnel Act of 1978 (CMPA) (D.C. Law 2-139; D.C. Official Code § 1-601.01, et seq.).  PERB has exclusive jurisdiction over labor-management disputes between District agencies and labor organizations that represent agency employees. OEA is tasked with adjudicating employee appeals and rendering impartial decisions.  OEA’s jurisdiction encompasses appeals of agency decisions such as: (a) a performance rating which results in the removal of the employee; (b) an adverse action for cause which results in removal, reduction in grade, or suspension for ten days or more; (c) a reduction-in-force; or (d) a placement on enforced leave for ten days or more.

 

Individuals and representatives of organizations wishing to testify should contact Kate Mitchell, Legislative Counsel, at [phone], or [e-mail] and provide their name, address, telephone number, and organizational affiliation, if any, by the close of business Friday, January 10, 2014.  Persons presenting testimony may be limited to 3 minutes in order to permit each witness an opportunity to be heard.

 

If you are unable to testify at the roundtable, written statements are encouraged and will be made a part of the official record.  Copies of written statements should be submitted to the Committee on Government Operations, Council of the District of Columbia, Suite G-11 of the John A. Wilson Building, 1350 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20004, or to [e-mail]. The record will close by the close of business January 29, 2014.
