APEA/AFT Staff
APEA/AFT Staff
The APEA/AFT Board of Directors are all volunteers and receive no compensation for the time spent running APEA/AFT. The Board hires staff to pursue grievances, present arbitrations, participate in Alaska Labor Relations Agency Hearings, provide professional assistance to Negotiations Committees, conduct training for Chapter Officers and Employee Representatives, and other duties which the Board has neither the time nor expertise to perform. Most legal services are provided through APEA/AFT's retained counsel Jermain, Dunnagin and Owens.
The APEA/AFT Board of Directors supervises staff through the Business Manager. The Board can hire and dismiss the Business Manager, as can the membership through the recall procedures in the Bylaws. The President and the Business Manager negotiate contracts with the staff; which are subject to Board approval. The Administrative/Clerical Staff are represented by the Professional Labor Organization. Professional Staff have individual contracts.
APEA/AFT has three regional offices in the state.
The Southeast Regional Office/Headquarters are located in Suite 306 of the Assembly Apartment Building, diagonally across from the State Capitol Building at 211 Fourth Street. The Juneau Office currently houses the Business Manager, the Finance Officer, the Legal Trust Accountant, Membership Technician, Southeast Regional Manager, Southeast Field Representative and Administrative Assistant.
