I doubt it. I hope that OHR decides not to appeal.

So what is the result of the decision? Do SEC employees get money damages or other compensation for the violations?

Would this go to an impasse panel or to the FLRA itself? The latter has three people now?

It goes to the FLRA itself. The FSIP is for impasse in negotiating CBAs. I dont know if the FLRA has a GC though which is necessary for the action to advance.

It appears that they do not.

Exactly. Denial.

So what now? I actually don’t mind going to the office. It’s just that five days a week is a killer. It’s hard to balance other responsibilities with work, when you have to commute two hours a day Whole thing makes me so sad because overall I love working at the SEC and I believe in its mission.

Congrats on the win. Too bad nothing will change.

"It's too bad she won't live! ...but then again, who does?"

I, for one, expect the agency to abide by a binding arbitration decision rather than filing a frivolous appeal. And that should be the expectation. Any other action will show that the Chairman detests staff, veneer of collegiality or not.

It’s not really binding since it is subject to appeal.

The Chairman does detest us all. He has told people that we are grossly overpaid. He wants to cut our benefits like the Supplemental Retirement. He hates telework. He hates everything that makes people feel good about their work. If the agency appeals, even under the excuse of being forced to do it by OPM/OMB, it will be yet another example of the above.

The message from OHR essentially telling us not to get our hopes up is an indication they will likely appeal. Because a good PR org would have already have options A, B, or C ready depending on the arbitrator’s decision. Don’t get your hopes up!

Agreed. The in your face 30 days to appeal statement right there was to let you know not to get your hopes up.

It's the President's decision. Or do you think he'd let one midsize independent agency slide under the radar?
