You rushed us into a contract and it's almost October we haven't received our raises but you made sure your managers got it that sat home all year but us that came in put our lives on line we haven't received anything. Members of 646 open your eyes these people don't care about us . Now if you don't get the vaccine they are going to put you out on October 17 2021 that right there it should show you how much they don't care there are so many Vacancies now when you put out so many who going to take care of the people we take care off oh wait the ones that took the vaccine just remember there is so many Vacancies and after you let so many go so you are just going to kill the one's that left this year you have Discipline So many staff because they couldn't keep up with your mandates and your pay sucks my advice increases that pay if you don't you are only going to hurt the people we take care off . So if you want to close down houses and Apartments in WDC and move people out of there house by force because to me you created this mess I will not judge you but The man up stairs will that if you believe in him and I am going to put everything back in his hands because I can't this to evil for me

The Department of Developmental Services recently notified employees that they will be paid for compensatory time balances that exceed contractual limits. Those payments will be received by staff on July 23rd.

However, DDS will make additional payments to employees whose balances are below contractual limits upon their request. Requests for additional compensatory time payments must be received by August 6, 2021. We need your assistance in sharing this information to all employees in all regions. Employees should contact the ESM in their region to make such a request. The contact information for the regional ESMs appears below.

All employees, both management and union, that have accrued compensatory time are eligible to participate and should contact the Employee Service Manager (ESM) in their region prior to August 6, 2021.

Dear Governor,
I am one of many essential workers and I love what I do. Before Covid-19 we stood/stand on the front line dealing with plenty of other contagious viruses and still we are put on the back burner. There are stimulus packages paying residents to stay at home. Meanwhile, MILITARY WORKERS, DOCTORS, MAs, QMAs, RNs, LPNs, CNAs, POLICE OFFICERS, FIREFIGHTERS, PARAMEDICS, EMTs, RESPIRATORY THERAPISTS, SOCIAL WORKERS, DIETARY WORKERS, JANITORS, GROCERY STORE WORKERS, AND TRANSPORTATION WORKERS, Direct service workers like myself put their life on the line DAILY without hesitation. Not only are we risking our lives, but our families' lives as well. If it wasn’t for us and we all went on tomorrow, who would you turn to?...How would patients continue to be cared for? How would the streets continue to be safe? How would people make their essential trips for groceries, or to get to work? Etc....Where is our hazard pay , our raise and bonuses. Better yet, we should have our own stimulus packages set aside; it should be mandatory with no questions asked. We as FRONTLINE/ESSENTIAL WORKERS should be taken care of as we have still continued to take care of residents worldwide.

All essential workers please copy and paste.

When Racism going to stop in Wrentham Development center. What I don’t understand when three black men says it didn’t happen and a white woman says it happened so it has to be true because the white woman says so. I know one of director thinks I think of her this way just want to make clear to her no I don’t think of you that way but the other two they have shown nothing but how racist they are one when they was discriminating against me he wrote she looked like she came to start problems and her eyes and then she was dancing I never laughed so hard when I read your false statement and opened my eyes to what everyone been saying about you and I know you did the investigation to this case and how you look at black people to say to one of the guys I know you how do you know him do you guys hang out no you don’t see it’s the way you look at people that are not white Americans I really feel the Governor needs to clean house in Wrentham Development center when you walk to build you find black peoples that works there in the basement and they are only 2 there a problem when you have department with no one of colors what is that saying when you have more people of color working in Wrentham Development center but none can’t be in higher Position what is that saying. Only one unit is given people a fare shot and that is in unit 3 and if the other units hires DSW 3 and 4 they are on 2 nd shift and 3 rd just like The Administration building keep people of color in the basement when is the Governor going to step in I am seeking out for help please help

646 think about this why are we under paid. Why are we the first to be Discipline? Why are we always being discriminated against? Why that we have worked to this whole Covid-19 brought it home to our family some of us lost our love ones because we infected them with virus and the Governor Carlie Baker thinks we are nothing that he keeps telling us no raise no hazard pay 646 don’t you think it’s time I think so
