To: NEBPA Union President Lisa Kidwell UMASS/Amherst Police Department From: Luis Antonmarchi UMASS/Amherst Police Department RE: Joint-Patrol Inverse My name is Luis Antoninarchi. I am a Patrol Officer with the UMASS/Amh Saturday, 04/06/2013. 1 worked the Joint-Patrol detail. The detail number was erst Police Department. On 13-365-DO and was scheduled for 9:00pm through 2:00am. I was inversed to work this detail. I did not volunteer to work this detail. When I arrived at the Amherst Police Department for work, as ordered, I found APD scheduled to work this detail. Furthermore, there were two Sergeants pulled that there was no one from the Joint-Patrol detail. The Sergeants were there working a detail that was funded from another detail to work also informed that APD Officers are not inversed to work the Joint-Patrol detail. by a separate grant. I was It is a voluntary detail for their Officers. They can choose nOt to work the detail. They are not ordered to work the detail. The Joint-Patrol detail is a result of APD requesting assistance from our agency . The Chiefs from both departments agree to this request. I understand and agree with UMPD assistin g any ofour neighboring Police Departments. But that agreement should not cause the UMPD Officers more hardship than that of the department that is requesting the assistance. It is not unreasonable to expect that any agreement for assistance comes with the understanding that there will be an equal committment from both departments. I respectfully request that this issue be addressed,

The University of Massachusetts Police Department (UMPD) has participated in Joint Patrol Details in the past with neighboring Police Departments. These Joint Patrol Details were formed as a result of neighboring Police Departments requesting the assistance of UMPD officers during times when an increased police presence was necessary. In the past when Joint Patrol Details were available the University would offer UMPD officers the opportunity to work them. UMPD officers were never ordered to work Joint Patrol Details by the University, it has always been voluntary. The University now presents a change in working conditions by ordering UMPD officers to work Joint Patrol Details or face disciplinary action. As recorded on the Universitys Overtime Award Sheets UMPD officers are now being ordered (inversed) to work Joint Patrol details when they do not accept the detail voluntarily. (Attached). On March 22, 2013 the NEPBA filed a demand to bargain with the University. (Attached) Since filing this demand to bargain the University has refused to bargain with the Union regarding Joint Patrol Details. On April 12, 2013 UMPD officer Luis Antonmarchi sent an e-mail to Union President Lisa Kidwell stating that he had been ordered by the University to work a Joint Patrol Detail on April 6, 2013 that he did not voluntarily agree to work. (Attached) The Union asserts that by its actions the University made a unilateral change in a term and condition in working conditions and has violated MGL c. 150E Section 10(a)(1), 10(a)(5) and (6).
