State Employee Charitable Campaign (SECC) is conducted in accordance with state law, the comptroller's rules and SPC rules. While the State Employee Charitable Campaign Policy Committee (SPC) is responsible for oversight of the SECC and insuring compliance by all parties, the day-to-day oversight of the SECC rests with the Local Employee Committees. The Local Employee Committee (LEC), composed of 5 to 10 local state employees and the local chair, is responsible for oversight of the local SECC to ensure that all campaign activities are conducted in accordance with state law and that they fairly and equitably promote unified solicitation on behalf of all participants. In order to expedite the handling of complaints and grievances pertaining to SECC and to ensure in put of all concerned parties, the following grievance policy shall be followed. (1)A state employee or charitable organization, including a federation/affiliate charity representative may lodge a grievance pertaining to the conduct of the State Employee Charitable Campaign at the statewide level, regarding any SECC matter occurring at the statewide level, or regarding the SPC, the state campaign manager (SCM), or a statewide charitable organization, including a statewide federation or fund. Grievances shall be sent to the State Policy Committee by delivery to the address of the State Campaign Manager. (2)The aggrieved party shall cooperate with the SPC to investigate the grievance. The decision of the SPC shall be final. (3)Any grievance submitted to the SPC may be referred to the appropriate LEC for review and action if the grievance concerns local issues. (4)A grievance properly received by the SPC will be reviewed and may be acted upon at the next scheduled SPC meeting, if possible.
This agency hereby certifies that the adoption has been
reviewed by legal counsel and found to be a valid exercise of the agency's
legal
authority.
