State Workers: We Need Workplace Bullying Protections In New Bill
KOSE Asks Legislature To End Abusive Work Enviroments
The Kansas Organization of State of Employees (KOSE) and American Federation of Teachers-Kansas (AFT - Kansas) today are pleased to see the anti-workplace-bullying bill, HB 2720, introduced in the Kansas legislature. HB 2720 is sponsored by Rep. Jerry Henry (D-Atchison) at the request of KOSE and AFT-Kansas and extends to state workers the same legal protections against workplace bullying the legislature afforded to students, teachers, and school workers just last year.
Remember that 1.5% Pay Raise The Governor Promised You? It Just Vanished
The pay raise the Governor announced for classified state workers has already begun to disappear from state budgets. This week budget subcommittees at the state legislature began deleting the pay raise from appropriation bills. So far employees at the Department of Corrections and the Department of Health and Environment have seen their pay raises vanish.
Is there a silver lining here? Maybe.
