300.00000 – UNFAIR PRACTICE ISSUES; PROTECTED ACTIVITIES
300.06000 – Demands for Change in Working Conditions

It is well established that “advocacy on behalf of a group of employees concerning working conditions is protected activity.” (Berkeley Unified School District (2015) PERB Decision No. 2411, p. 19.) A Board of Trustees member’s characterization of the political theater engaged in by employees and the union is at the heart of this type of protected activity – bringing attention to individual problematic instances to advocate for changes in working conditions. (p. 35.)
