ABOUT OUR CAUCUS: We are TSEU members who work in the Health and Human Services Commission and the Department of Aging and Disability Services CCAD program. We are building a strong union in our workplaces to fight for: better pay and benefits to attract and retain quality staff; increased staffing levels; stopping privatization.
Caucus Legislative Goals 2021-22
As voted on by caucus delegates to the 2020 TSEU General Assembly. These goals will carry us through our next General Assembly in 2022.
-
Oppose and roll back privatization and closures of human services offices and programs while increasing oversight and accountability of current HHSC contracts.
-
Maintain and increase staffing to deal with both existing and projected growth and enact an across-the-board career ladder in order to stop turnover.
-
Demand the state provide the tools and flexibility to complete our work: safe and sanitary work environments, adequate training and support for all employees, including Management and Support Staff, realistic work expectations, and an effective grievance procedure.
-
Create comprehensive plans to prepare for future emergencies that include telework.
