RECOMMENDED SETTLEMENT ORDER

Case no. #06-19-00-3

***

Grievant states that the reassignments of library employees announced by the Library Director on May 25, 2000 show a total disregard for the skills and experience of the library employees. The transfers decimate the cadre of senior managers at the library systems Central Library and do not address the actual personnel needs of the other library facilities to which the Central Library employees were reassigned. Some of the transfers appear retaliatory or racially motivated....
