Your rights as a public employee

Loudermill Rights
Loudermill Rights apply to incidents of involuntary termination. Prior to being terminated, "the . . . tenured public employee is entitled to oral or written notice of the charges against him (or her), an explanation of the employer’s evidence, and an opportunity to present his (or her) side of the story." Learn more.
Garrity Rights
The Garrity rule is similar to Miranda rights for public employees. However, the burden is on the employee to assert their Garrity rights. These rights can and should be asserted whenever an employee believes they are being investigated for possible criminal conduct. Learn more.

Weingarten Rights
If you are ever called into an interview meeting with your supervisor or manager so they can investigate a situation which might result in discipline, you have specific representational rights.

WITHDRAWAL CARD
If you are terminated, laid off, or quit you must purchase a withdrawal card in the amount of $1.00 within 30 days of your termination date to avoid paying another initiation fee within that year. If you fail to purchase the withdrawal card within 30 days you then forfeit your right to waive the next initiation fee. Please contact Sharon McNeal at (314) 533-3633 ext. 24.
