Hochul sends the national guard to jail where prison guards are striking

[Nighttrain]

The younger generation of officers are resigning in mass.

While the officers with enough time (25 years) are retiring daily.

The horrendous working conditions are being made public for the first time in years.

Agreed. Been bad for 10+ years now.

A buddy of mine is a CO, he asked me today if there are jobs down here for him to apply to. He says his wife told him its time to GTFO of NY

This will keep happening.

I drove by a prison today, and they are folks camping outside the prison. I should've taken some pictures, but I was in a hurry to get the work truck/trailer back to work because I'm off tomorrow.

 

[Depick]

Just saw they had a potential deal yesterday but it was denied by the COs union.

 

[spat]

It’s a mystery why this is not being covered daily on the big national media outlets.

No, it's not really a mystery at all.

 

[pshift]

Will the next installment read "First Prison Guards, Now Prisoners"?

Just saw they had a potential deal yesterday but it was denied by the COs union.

I thought the union wasn’t on their side and all offers were going directly to the members.
I heard from someone who knows a guardsmen in there and they said they had no clue how bad it was and it’s devastating them in many ways.

From what I saw the COs were approving the deal and the union killed it somehow.

I saw they were returning to work today and a video of them walking back into Attica prison today.

That's wonderful.

The only people they didn't bother to ask were those involved in the strike.

 

[Saltwater60]

About 2,000 CO’s were fired. This should help with keeping the prisons safe, inspecting mail, and staffing shortages.

She won that battle.
Crooked bitch doesn't have to comply to her own terms now.

Generally I've no use for the Union, and we shouldn't even delve into that now, that said; I thought the Union was against the Strike and refused to be involved? I thought there was an agreement made between the Striking Officers and the State and some Officers were returning to work today...not sure as I haven't viewed the daily propaganda machine today.

What I don't get is they're already short hundreds of CO's
The State has a bitch of a time recruiting and retaining...
Eligible Officers are retiring as fast as they can...
New ones are quitting en-mass
And the Buck-toothed bush bitch's answer is to fire 2,000...yea, makes perfect sense; wonder how many will be relocating outside NY in the coming months?

 

[Saltwater60]

Article doesn’t say much other than over 15% of CO’s declined to return to work and guards members will remain at the prisons. The are u see going an aggressive recruitment campaign - good luck with that.

Things are much worse now than ever, when the strike started approximately 16k officers were working, now the numbers are reported at 10k

The recruitment of new officers was very poor before the strike.

Now what is the plan to replace the 6k officers that resigned, retired and now fired.

She has asked to close 5 more facilities, this will bring about more resignations and retirements, not enough officers will remain working while being forced to transfer to other facilities.

The officers that have returned are now working 12 hours shifts, the regular days off “RDO” has been suspended until further notice. Vacation etc all have been canceled.

The programs that the majority of inmates participate in have all been suspended.

With the return of nicer weather also brings with it more violence in the facility‘s.

The shortage of overworked staff will complicate every aspect of day to day activities with in the facility’s

Its going to be a very difficult summer.

All public employee unions should be abolished!

Gov. Hochul bans state hiring of any continuing wildcat strike participants

Gov. Kathy Hochul announced on Tuesday that she signed an executive order putting the ban into effect.

spectrumlocalnews.com

The Sheriff offices are actively recruiting state correctional officers, she is doing this out of pure spite.



Any worker who continued to participate in the wildcat strike at prisons across New York after Monday's agreement with the state will no longer be able to be hired at any state service job, according to Gov. Kathy Hochul, who announced Tuesday that she signed an executive order putting the ban into effect.

The executive order also recommends these workers be removed from the Central Registry of Police and Peace Officers for cause. It means they would also be prevented from being hired as a police or peace officer in state and local jurisdictions.

Go work for Horchul's prison system? Skru dat! I rather learn to code. And I have less than zero interest to learn to code.

I doubt the last statement would hold true. I’ll bet many of the out of state agencies would still hire these guys time will tell. The conservative states will recruit them would be my guess.

Add to it that at the capacity they were months ago they were at 70% staffing from the articles I read. This would mean they were supposed to be at 20-21,000 officers and are now at 10,000 based on your statements. They are now at 50% capacity so good luck. This makes sense because they wanted 85% to accept the terms and they did not meet that target.

I’ve seen adds from out of state calling for NY corrections officers to join their team
With just as many from various sheriff’s corrections around NYS

 

[Saltwater60]

So now they are backtracking and saying some guards leave should have been granted because I’m assuming those with FLMA would have great grounds to sue if they didn’t. I almost wish they would have stuck to their guns here so the COs could be rich that have grounds to sue. They are seeking monetary compensation with no jail time from 61 officers but have to double check the list because some of those may have had a valid reason for leave.
