Under Palo Verde Unified School District (1988) PERB Decision No. 689, Board applied an objective test in determining whether action taken by the employer actually resulted in harm to subject employee; test is not whether employee found employer action undesirable, but whether a reasonable person under the same circumstances would consider the action to have an adverse impact on the employee's employment; p. 11. Adverse action is not limited to formal disciplinary actions such as those enumerated in Gov. Code 19570.
