Service Employees International Union Local 79 Collection

Records, 1952-1992Predominantly, 1980-1990

28 linear feet

Accession #1728OCLC #

The Service Employees International Union Local 79 deposited its records with theArchives of Labor and Urban Affairs in 1999. Portions of those deposits were open forresearch in December 2005.

With a history spanning from 1937 to the present, Local 79 is the second oldest andlongest running SEIU local in Michigan. The local organizes a range of health careemployees, maintenance workers, and stadium employees, amongst others. It is based inDetroit, but has members throughout the state.

Its prominence is evidenced by its size and the role it has played within SEIU and thelabor movement more generally. With a membership of 1,651 in 1951, the local reached12,524 members in 1970 and 17,826 in 1984. With 41,000 home health care workersadded in 2005, the local continues to build upon its preexisting power base. Local 79slast three presidents, moreover, have served in important capacities within the largerSEIU framework. In addition to serving as Local 79 president from 1953 until 1988,Richard Cordtz has also held an office as international vice president, secretary-treasurerand, for a short period, as international president. Subsequent Local 79 leaders PaulPolicicchio (1988-1999) and Willie Hampton (1999-present) have held important SEIUposts as well. Because of its importance within the Detroit and Michigan labormovement, these officers and others have received appointments to various city and statecommissions and task forces. In these various capacities they have advanced the causesof the local and its members.

The SEIU Local 79 Collection comprise files of Richard Cordtz, Paul Policicchio, staff,contract negotiations, employers, organizing drives, various Local 79 units, other labororganizations, amongst other people and subjects. With a history dating back to 1971,many records documenting Hampton’s tenure with the local are in the collection as well.Embodied within this collection are correspondences, staff activity reports, agreements,clippings, meeting agenda and minutes, bulletins, internal reports, wage classificationsand scales, pleadings, NLRB material, clippings, employee policy manuals, membershipsurveys, leaflets/flyers, newsletters, membership/seniority lists, meeting notes, localconstitutions and by-laws, local union publications, financial statements, contractproposals, speeches, and meeting attendance lists, amongst other material.

Due to a fire that destroyed the Local 79 headquarters, researchers will find very littledocumenting the history of any portion of the local prior to 1980. However, other SEIUcollections do contain some material on this earlier period.

As the folder level entries in the guide are often expanded as compared to what is on theactual folders, researchers will want to cross reference between the guide and actualfolders to determine which folders will have useful records, keeping in mind that thebox/folder numbers listed in the guide correspond to those that are on the actual folders.

Researchers in this collection are expected to complete and sign a Restrictive UseStatement, which prohibits researchers from using the names of people found in thecollection in their research, using any information that might allow others to identifythose people or sharing those names with others without the signed written approval ofthe Archives or donor.

28 Storage Boxes

Series I, Richard Cordtz Files, 1978-1987, Boxes 1-2This series is comprised of material that Richard Cordtz, a former president ofLocal 79, kept within his files. He served as president of this local from 1953 to1988. The series includes memos, correspondence legal files, meeting minutes,grievances, and complaints about the local and its representation of Local 79members. The material generally concerns those internal and often contentiousmatters in which the local was involved, with many of these matters comingbefore the courts or other judicial/regulatory bodies. However, other material(e.g., re: organizing) is also found in this series.

Series II, Paul Policicchio Files, 1965-1989, Boxes 2-7Policicchio served as Local 79 President from 1988 to 1999.The records withinthis series reflect his various union-related interests and concerns, including thosedealing with issues of negotiations, strikes, organizing campaigns, politicalcampaigns, public health issues, state and city agencies and task forces,conferences and other labor organizations. More specifically, the series includescorrespondence, agreements, affidavits, NLRB material, contract demands,clippings, flyers, reports, brochures, meeting minutes, Beverly Enterprisesbriefing books, bulletins, campaign literature, membership lists, policies, agenda,testimonies and speeches, organizational charts, surveys, picket rosters, photos,meeting notes, negotiation files, newsletters, union officer slates, grievances andrelated material, wage and classification lists, bargaining committee slate, pressreleases, meeting attendance lists, legal documents, union officer lists, senioritylists, contract proposals and demands, by-laws, convention material, employeepolicies, and local union publications. It appears that Policicchio either inheritedmany of the files within this series from his predecessor, Richard Cordtz and/orused them in connection with his work at Local 79 prior to when he became itspresident, as many of the files predate his tenure as local president.

Series III, Staff Files, 1981-1992, Boxes 7-13The Staff Files concern individual staff members and matters regarding the local’sstaff at large.

Subseries A: Staff Activity Reports, etc., 1981-1992, Boxes 7-12This subseries primarily comprise projected weekly work schedules,weekly logs, and activity reports of the professional staff of Local 79 forthe general period of 1989 and 1991-1992. However, correspondence,resumes, bargaining unit assessments, member complaints, organizingreports, performance reports, clippings, bargaining unit activity reports,are also located within the files of Local 79 staff members. These staffmembers primarily include business agents and various directors and co-

5

directors of units within Local 79. These records provide a sense of theday-to-day work of the above-referenced Local 79 Staff.

Subseries B: General Files Regarding SEIU Local 79 Staff, 1981-1992, Boxes12-13This subseries comprise staff memos and correspondences as well as filesof staff meetings, contract negotiations with the Organization ofProfessional Employees International Union, which represent many Local79 staff members, amongst other files regarding Local 79 staff.

Series IV, Organizing Files, 1977-1989, Boxes 13-14This series comprise correspondence, memos, telegrams, authorization forrepresentation cards, bulletins, house call record cards, affidavits, NLRBdecisions, contract proposal ideas, NLRB charges, meeting notices, employeepolicy manuals, brochures re: benefits of Local 79, employee lists, agreements,employee manuals and policies, clippings, surveys, wage scales andclassifications, representational election results, leaflets, unfair labor practicecharges, grievances, flyers, election ballot tallies. With few exceptions, these filesconcern health care facilities that employ Local 79 members. It appears that thosehealth care facilities whose names begin with A through K are missing, as the firstfile in the series is the Livonia Nursing Home.

Series V, Contract Negotiations, 1980-1992, Boxes 15-20This series comprise correspondences, agreements and proposed agreements,various NLRB notices, grievances, contract ratification material,employee/seniority lists, wage schedules, election ballots, protest petitions, Local79 bulletins, meeting attendance lists, contract demands, employee handbook,wage/classification schedules/rates, meeting notes, employer and employeecontract proposals, petitions for improved health benefits, strike sanctions,membership surveys of contracts, benefit plans, clippings, financial statements,personnel guidelines, and completed contract proposal questionnaires.Researchers should note that the file marked, “Provincial House Cass City –Beverly Enterprises” is the last file in the series, suggesting that there are files ofcompanies beginning with the letter “R” and extending further into the alphabet,that are missing from this body of material.

Series VI, Monroe Mercy Hospital, 1964-1974, Boxes 20-21This series primarily concerns the often-contentious relationship between MonroeMercy Hospital and Local 79 who represented many of the hospital’s employeesin the early to mid 1970s. In addition to issues of working conditions and wages,issues of representation, contract negotiations, good faith bargaining, trespassing,employees who struck versus those who did not, are reflected in the documentsthat comprise this series. This series is broken down into two subseries. With fewexceptions, the contents of this series are the oldest documents in this collection, afact that results from a 1980 fire that destroyed most of the other Local 79 recordsdocumenting its history.

6

Subseries A: General Files, 1964-1973, Boxes 20-21Correspondence, wage classifications, employee handbooks, strikebulletins, agreements, hospital and union newsletters, election notices andresults, clippings, picket line lists, NLRB pleadings, reports, and strikedonations and acknowledgements comprise the contents of this subseries.

Subseries B: Pleadings, 1972-1974, Box 21This subseries comprise pleadings (i.e., decisions, orders, motions, briefs,etc.) concerning the conflicts between Local 79 and Monroe MercyHospital. Unlike other series and subseries, which follow an alphabeticalarrangement, the file titles herein are arranged chronologically.

Series VII, Michigan Health Care Associates, District 1199, 1964-1974, Boxes 21-23The records that comprise this series involve the Michigan Health CareAssociates, District 1199, which merged with SEIU in 1989. With the exceptionof some agreements, which span back to ca. 1986, most of the records arecorrespondences between MHCA, 1199 and the various hospitals whoseemployees are represented by 1199. This entity within SEIU represents a varietyof health care workers in Michigan, including licensed practical nurses, registerednurses, clerical staff and others. The first few files concern the Michigan HealthCare Associates as it existed before its affiliation with SEIU and the mergerbetween the MHCA, District 1199 and SEIU. Subsequent folders, which arearranged alphabetically, primarily concern the relationship between MHCA,District 1199 as an affiliate of SEIU and the various Michigan-based health carefacilities with which the new merged organization had members.

Series VIII, General Files, 1952-1991, Boxes 23-28This series comprise a range of material that did not appear to have been a part ofother series. They are the files of labor organizations, including other SEIUaffiliates, meetings, seminars, conventions and conferences, individuals with closeties to the local, health care reform and health care facilities. These files containcorrespondences, conference programs, clippings, meeting announcements, pressreleases, bulletins, bargaining unit lists, patient care surveys, legislation, reports,agreements, contract proposals, handwritten notes, meeting attendance lists, slatesof endorsed candidates, flyers, meeting agenda, layoff notices, companynewsletters, brochures, testimony, contract offers, seniority lists/wagerates/classifications, speeches/remarks, unfair labor practice charges, NRLBcharges and hearing notices, disciplinary policies, ballots, organizational charts,raffle ticket solicitations, conference registration sheets, local 79 propertydescription and building appraisal report and Local 79 constitution and by-laws.
