The Placer Public Employees Organization held its regular Board meeting Wednesday evening.  One of the recurring discussion items was employee safety in light of a growing homeless population near County offices.  If employees experience any incidents of harassment or hostility, it should be reported to County Risk Management using the attached form.  If you witness or are a victim of an emergency, crime or unsafe situation, contact the Sheriff’s office immediately.  Please also report these incidents to Risk Management once it is safe to do so.  Reporting all issues will assist the County in identifying and justifying additional or more immediate actions to respond to this evolving issue.  The completed forms may be emailed to the address noted on the form: riskman@placer.ca.gov.

The PPEO board is looking for new members!  We would love to have a broader range of employees from across the county representing our employees, especially as we move into new negotiations with the county.  If you are interested in getting involved, please attend a board meeting (you can find the schedule here) or email us at union@ppeo.org!
