""The Side Letter to PECG's current 2022-25 Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) suspends immediately the Governor's four day return-to-office executive order for Unit 9 employees until July 1, 2026.""
""It was the back-tracking on the governor's back-to-work order that got top billing in the PECG's communication, overshadowing the raises included in the agreement.""
Governor Gavin Newsom's recent budget revisions indicate a willingness to negotiate his earlier executive order requiring state employees to return to the office four days a week. This flexibility is exemplified in a tentative agreement for certain state employees that allows them to postpone the return for an entire year while freezing salary increases. The pause in the back-to-work order highlights serious concerns about California's management of remote work and raises questions on broader implications for state employment policies.
