About
70 provisional Police Administrative Aides who were terminated and replaced by
workers who passed a civil service test attended an informational meeting held
Dec. 3 by the DC 37 Clerical Division.
“We wanted to help these workers
land as softly as possible and get on with their lives,” said Assistant Division
Director Ron Arnero. The former PAAs heard from Clerical Division staff and other
experts on Food Stamps, unemployment and health insurance, pensions, the 401(k)
deferred compensation plan and upcoming civil service tests. They received the
Layoff Resources Guide published by the DC 37 Health & Security Plan.
As
a result of the Long Beach court decision, permanent workers from civil service
lists are replacing 97 NYPD provisionals. Under state law and the decision, provisionals
are not supposed to remain in city jobs for more than nine months.
