The Unit 12, 13, 15, 17 and 20 collective bargaining agreements obligate the State to send a letter to these individuals so they understand their addresses are presently being withheld, and to notify them that they may elect to have their addresses released in the future. Attached is a copy of the letter being mailed to non-law enforcement employees in Units 12, 13, 15, 17 and 20 who (on their Employee Action Request form) asked that their home address be withheld. It provides these employees with an opportunity to remove the withhold so the State Controllers Office can provide their home address to their exclusive representative. Employees electing to remove the withhold so their home address is released must complete the attached form and return it directly to their departmental Personnel Office. Personnel Offices will be responsible for entering the change into the State Controllers Office computer system.
