Case No. SF-CE-461-H PERB Decision No. 1316-H February 24, 1999 |
DECISION
AMADOR, Member: This case is before the Public Employment Relations Board
(Board) on appeal by the Society of Professional Scientists and Engineers
(SPSE) to an administrative law judge's (ALJ) proposed decision (attached).
The ALJ found that the Regents of the University of California (University)
did not violate section 3571(a) of the Higher Education Employer-Employee
Relations Act (HEERA){1}
by unilaterally implementing a wholesale change in personnel policies which
covered certain employees at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory.
The Board has reviewed the entire record, including
the ALJ's proposed decision, SPSE's exceptions and the University's
response. The Board finds the ALJ's findings of fact and conclusions of
law to be free of prejudicial error and adopts them as the decision of the
Board itself.
ORDER
The unfair practice charge and complaint in
Case No. SF-CE-461-H is hereby DISMISSED WITHOUT LEAVE TO AMEND.
Chairman Caffrey and Member Dyer joined in this Decision.
