| 2806E | * * * JUDICIAL APPEAL PENDING * * * Visalia Unified School District 504.02000: EMPLOYER DISCRIMINATION; EVIDENCE OF UNLAWFUL MOTIVATION; NEXUS; Disparate Treatment Evidence showed that District treated employee who engaged in protected activities disparately from other employees. First, the District had not terminated any other employee for unintentionally misreporting attendance. And, prior to its investigation of employee, the District had never performed a full-scale audit looking at every data entry in computer program to determine whether an attendance clerk had made incorrect entries. Such disparate treatment indicated unlawful motive. (pp. 31-32.) more or view all topics or full text. | 46 | 115 | 02/07/22 |
| 2704H | Regents of the University of California 504.02000: EMPLOYER DISCRIMINATION; EVIDENCE OF UNLAWFUL MOTIVATION; NEXUS; Disparate Treatment University failed to investigate the several critical predicate facts underlying its conclusion that Charging Parties knowingly violated policy, including by seeking out witnesses, campus surveillance, mileage records or other relevant evidence. These missing parts of the investigation were not needless redundancies, but rather go to the heart of whether Charging Parties engaged in conscious and knowing violations as the University claimed when it terminated them. Thus, the University’s failure to pursue these facts indicates disinterest in whether the alleged misconduct actually occurred and strongly signals unlawful motive. Indeed, because an inadequate investigation can prevent an employer from learning the true facts, it can, as here, result in a disproportionate punishment, which is a further indicator of unlawful motive.

Consistent violations of the Education Code before and after charging party’s protected activity that allegedly demonstrated a lack of just cause or procedural violations would not, by themselves, indicate improper motivation because of protected activity. more or view all topics or full text. | 39 | 141 | 04/23/15 |

By attempting to enforce a superseded and more onerous 48-hour notice requirement for union leave, rather than 24 hours as provided in the current contract and practices, the employer treated the employee in a disparate manner from all other similarly situated employees, and deviated from past practices.

| 1403S | State of California (Department of Youth Authority) 504.02000: EMPLOYER DISCRIMINATION; EVIDENCE OF UNLAWFUL MOTIVATION; NEXUS; Disparate Treatment No showing of disparate treatment of the employee, because choice of the investigatory level was made by the IAU. Given employee's litigious background, prior adverse actions, and multiple complaints to various high level CYA administrators, it is reasonable that the IAU would want to assure itself that the investigation was conducted by trained professionals, rather than the local part-time investigators. Weak showing of inadequate investigation prior to initiating the IAU investigation, supports, to some extent, an inference of unlawful motivation. No credible evidence with regard to any (1) inconsistent explanations of the employer's action or (2) departure(s) from established procedures or standards. After balancing the competing interests of the employer and the rights of the employee, the Board found little, if any, evidence that such conflicts between employee and her supervisors were the result of her protected activities. more or view all topics or full text. | 24 | 31146 | 09/12/00 |
