ABOUT OUR CAUCUS: We are TSEU members who work in the Department of Family Protective Services. We work in CPS, APS, and CCL. We are building a strong union in our agency to fight for: better pay and benefits to attract and retain dedicated, experienced staff; lower caseloads; 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.
-
The agency MUST stop staff turnover and retain staff by funding healthcare benefits, across the board pay raises for all staff, payment of all overtime compensation, compensation for bilingual and interpretive staff, compensation for level of education, establishing a career ladder for all staff, job parity for APS, SWI, and support staff, and continuing to fund retirement benefits.
-
Restore needed funding for client services and stop the privatization of FPS programs protecting children and adults.
-
Adopt the same caseload standards as recommended by the NAEYC, NAAPSA, CWLA, and TDPRS. Decrease wait time at Statewide intake to an average of 5 minutes
