Recognition/Association Security Clause Samples

Recognition/Association Security. The City hereby acknowledges that the SBPDA is recognized by the City as the exclusive representative for the Police Dispatch employees for purposes of meeting and conferring on wages, hours, and other terms and conditions of employment and for all other matters related to employer-employee relations for these employees. The granting of "exclusive" recognition shall not preclude employee self-representation in matters where individual rights, protections and concerns are involved; provided, however, the representation rights of the Association as exclusive representative shall not be compromised thereby. If a unit member does not wish to be represented by the Association in matters pertaining to grievances and disciplinary appeals and wishes to represent themself, such member shall be required to provide the Association and the City with a signed statement waiving the right to Association representation in such matters.
