Why do they want your home address
and home phone number?????
Identity theft...security breaches of data...abuse of information...invasion of privacy... lack of confidentiality...annoying and harassing calls. All of these damning practices are possible if your home address, home phone number and other personal information gets into the wrong hands.
If you are a state employee assigned to one of AFSCME's collective bargaining units, you should have received a letter that the state will provide AFSCME your home address and phone number, if you did not return a form by April 17 to "opt out" of the release of information. If you did not receive this important letter and/or did not send it back to the Department of Budget and Management, they can by law, and will, give AFSCME your personal information.
MCEA opposed the outrageous bill and offered amendments to protect state employees. ( A similar bill will take effect July 1 for university employees.) We believe the state handled the notification process poorly and we are demanding that no information be given to AFSCME or any bargaining representative until the process is fully investigated and the letter re-issued with employees given the required amount of time to respond (15 days).
Protect your wallets and privacy from AFSCME's greedy schemes. TELL AFSCME TO BACK OFF! If they need to contact you, why not use e-mail, a work address or interoffice mail?
Spread the word!
