COVID-19 Employee Resources
Visit our COVID-19 Employee Resources & Reference Guides page for information on the 2021 COVID-19 Supplemental Paid Sick Leave (CPSL), including the county’s obligations to it’s employees and the process for filing a claim or report a labor law violation with the California Labor Commissioner’s Office.
Legal Defense Fund For Probation & Correctional Officers
The PPEO has partnered with Sacramento Probation to offer access to the Fraternal Order of Police and their legal defense fund. These plans are available to PPEO members working as a Probation Officer or as a Correctional Officer.
Employee Safety & Risk Management
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.
Placer Reads
Once again, the PPEO has partnered with the county to support Placer Reads. We’ve supplied copies of two books for the program. The first, “Death by Meeting” by Patrick Lencioni is about solving the most painful problems in business. The second, “Thanks for the Feedback” by Douglas Stone is about receiving feedback well and comes highly recommended by members of the PPEO board who are reading it through the program. We still have some copies left, if you’reinterested. Email secretary@ppeo.org for your copy and more information.
2021 Board Meeting Dates
PPEO board meetings are held on the third Wednesday of each month at 5:30pm. Most meetings are held in Auburn; one meeting is held in Tahoe and one is held in Roseville/Rocklin. There will be no meeting in June or December.
Join the Board!
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!
