[Reading agenda item]

[Reading agenda item number 2] >> thank you.

I'd like to welcome carol from the department of human resources here to present on

these items. Miss Eisen? >> supervisors, my name is carol eisen, I'm the employee relations director. Thank you for holding this

special meeting to consider the two M.O.U.S in front of you

for representing the licensed

nurses and the supervisorring nurses. The first group represented by service employees international

union and the second by the

teamsters local 856. similar to the presentation you heard at our last committee meeting, when you considered the

rest of the M.O.U.S now pending in front of the board,

both of these M.O.U. Follow the same same general wage pattern

attempt -- settlement and overtime, compensatory time, their grievance procedures, the issues that we ever covered in the last hearing.

I'm not going to go into those at length. I will tell you that in the --

in the nurses' contract, there

was a lot of concern from the

employees about staffing levels in various units, especially in san francisco general.

But also laguna honda as well.

We entered into a first-ever

side letter with that union,

that does provide for specific

guarantees in numerous centers throughout san francisco general and laguna honda.

And provides for an instant arbitration process, if the union believes we have not met the commitments in the letter. They have been submitted, as I understand, as technical amendments to your budget, to

make sure those positions are incorporated. The negotiating committee, from

the sciu has recommended a "yes" vote for their membership. They're in the process of

ratification, which started last

week and will end on June the 28th. So this is your part of the ratification, which is to adopt the M.O.U. And the union is

engaging in their own process.

And I'm happy to answer any questions.

>> Supervisor Mar:   thank you.

any questions, colleagues? Okay. >> this is it. >> good work. Thank you very much.

>> Supervisor Mar:   now you get to take the next couple of years off. >> I don't know. Charter amendments. That comes next.

>> Supervisor Mar:   oh, yeah. Well, are there -- we've got a public comment now. Are there any members of the public who wish to testify on this item? Seeing none, public comment is closed. [Gavel] >> Mr. Chairman, I would make a

motion we send items 1 and 2 to the full board, as a committee report for a special meeting of

the board of supervisors on

thursday, June the 20th. >> okay.

>> the motion passes, yeah, without objection.

[Gavel] Thank you. Any further business? >> there is no further business. >> great. This meeting is adjourned. Thank you.

>> thank you.
