DAS continues its pursuit of a time tracking system called Kronos. While the rest of Connecticut fights for minimal financial support, employees are being asked to increase thier contributions to support their benefits, many agencies are seeing their funding dwindle, and the State budget deficit is approach $350 million, DAS continues its quest to squander millions on a time-tracking system that no one wants. Quite simply, this waste of money should be scrapped. In these economic times, "wants" are secondary to "needs" and this is a want, not a need. But since it continues to move forward and agencies are preparing to deploy it, we have to address it. As this is a change in working conditions, the SEBAC unions under the DAS-umbrella have sent a letter of demand to bargain over this drivel.
