Decision 2893E – Stockton Unified School District
SA-CE-3053-E
Decision Date: March 8, 2024
Decision Type: PERB Decision (Non-Precedential)
Description: The complaint alleged that Respondent Stockton Unified School District violated the Educational Employment Relations Act (EERA) by: (1) issuing a Letter of Concern to Charging Party Laureen Thompson in retaliation for her protected activity; and (2) interfering with Thompson’s EERA-protected rights by issuing Thompson a notice regarding union business conducted during work hours. After formal hearing, the Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) issued a proposed decision dismissing the complaint. The proposed decision found that Thompson failed to establish a prima facie retaliation claim and the memo concerning union business was narrowly tailored to allow union activity during breaks and non-work time. Thompson timely appealed the proposed decision.
Disposition: In a non-precedential decision, the Board affirmed the ALJ’s proposed decision and dismissed the complaint and underlying unfair practice charge.
