Union files charges against district

November 7, 2009

Shadyside Education Association filed an unfair labor practice charge against the Shadyside Local School District Board of Education on Tuesday, claiming the superintendent had engaged in “public bargaining” and direct dealings with employees, something the union said is a violation of state law. “We would like the public posturing to end,” said SEA President Linda Tomer. “What is needed is for Superintendent (Terry) Brinker to concentrate his efforts to achieving a fair and equitable contract with Shadyside teachers.” The union claims that on or about Oct. 28, “charged party’s Superintendent Terry Brinker, through statements to the media, disseminated information regarding specific bargaining proposals that had been exchanged between the parties during their negotiations over a successor agreement,” the SEA reported in a release regarding the charge. The union also charged that their bargaining representatives were circumvented by releasing the information.
