Local 1000’s Contract Department is working closely with CDCR management to mitigate the effects of closure, and here’s what we’ve learned as of September 28:
- The closure date for CCC will be June 30, 2023.
- The Department has sent a communication to impacted employees, which has been shared with the bargaining chairs of units with affected employees, and to the DLC president.
- Local 1000 will be scheduling “meet and confer” meetings to discuss the impacts of closure and to find innovative solutions to retain staff.
- A detailed timeline for the closure and related activities and opportunities was included in the message. Click here to read and/or download that timeline.
- The first step is to utilize the Voluntary Transfer Process (VTP), and Local 1000 will hold meetings to assist in the process.
- CDCR aims to mitigate the closure as much as possible by filling existing positions at High Desert State Prison.
- The CalHR layoff notice will likely be issued in late February.
