The Law Enforcement Officers Security Unions LEOSU was happy to sponsor the 1st annual LEOSU / Paragon Systems Inc Protective Service Officers Cookout yesterday in Jamaica, Queens New York
LEOSU / Paragon Systems Inc NYC PSO Cookout 9/15/19
Hana Industries Security Escort Officers from the Russell Knox Building in Quantico, VA met over the weekend to discuss its bargaining proposals for upcoming negotiations. This unit recently voted for LEOSU representation after their former union SPFPA abandoned them by disclaiming interest in this group. LEOSU Organizing Director Steve Maritas noted “we are happy to represent these officers and we welcome them to our LEOSU family and we PROMISE we will not let you down”.
Security Escort Officers from the Russell Knox Building in Quantico, VA, show their support for LEOSU-DC. These former SPFPA members voted for the LEOSU-DC recently after their old union SPFPA disclaimed interest in these officers back on April 16, 2019. We welcome these officers to our LEOSU-DC Family. The Russell Knox Building RKB houses five agencies, including the Air Force Office of Special Investigations, the Defense Intelligence Agency, the Defense Security Service, the United States Army Criminal Investigation Command, and the Naval Criminal Investigative Service.
Letter from SPFPA President David L. Hickey Disclaiming Interest in the Security Specialists working for Hana Industries, Inc @ Russell Knox Building in Quantico VA. SPFPA disclaimed interest in this group after the Law Enforcement Officers Security Unions filed an election to represent these officers.
In a unionized workplace, employment contracts are negotiated through the collective bargaining process. … to negotiate a union contract requires bargaining skills as well as knowledge of applicable labor laws. Before any collective bargaining begins there is much prep work involved prior to sitting face to face before an employer. The Law Enforcement Officers Security Unions LEOSU prides itself in having a full-time law firm Lally & Misir, LLP that spends the time in researching and preparing for negotiations prior to our face to face meetings with security company employers. The Law Enforcement Officers Security Unions (LEOSU) is a full service labor organization formed to provide every labor related service from negotiations, grievance processing, legal and legislative representation. The Law Enforcement Officers Security Unions (LEOSU) mission is to serve as a voice for law enforcement officers and security professionals in the New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Washington DC Region and the Northeast region to their employers
Washington DC & New York City – The Law Enforcement Officers Security Unions LEOSU & LEOSU-DC won two major National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) decisions in two separate regions, region 5 and region 29 concerning Paragon Systems, Inc. In the Washington DC NLRB decision the Board ruled in Case 05-RC-234968 that the Board has considered the evidence and arguments presented by the parties, and for the reasons described below, I conclude that the Intervenor has not established that either a Contract or successor bar applies in this case. Accordingly, the Board conclude that a question concerning representation exists,and they are directing an election in this matter.
Soon after this NLRB decision the Federal Contract Guards of America FCGOA, disclaimed all interest in this group and Paragon Systems, Inc then legally recognized the LEOSU as the exclusive bargaining collective representative for All full-time and regular part-time protective security officers and sergeants employed by the Employer performing guard duties at the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services facilities currently located at 20 Massachusetts Avenue, NW, and 111 Massachusetts Avenue, NW, Washington, D.C.; but excluding all office clerical employees, professional employees, managerial employees, and supervisors as defined in the Act.
In another NLRB decision handed down by the NLRB on May 15, 2019, in Case No. 29-RC-229372 against the National League of Justice and Security Professionals (NLJSP) the Board ruled in its HEARING OFFICER’S REPORT AND RECOMMENDATIONS ON OBJECTIONS that this report contains my findings and recommendations regarding the Petitioner’s objections to the election in the above referenced case. For the reasons contained herein, I recommend overruling the Petitioner’s objections and issuing a Certification of Representative.
Upon a petition filed on October 15, 2018, by National League of Justice and Security Professionals (NLJSP), herein called the Petitioner, and pursuant to a Stipulated Election Agreement signed by the Petitioner, Paragon Systems, Inc., herein called the Employer, and by Law Enforcement Officers Security Unions LEOSU, LEOS-PBA, herein called the Intervenor, and approved by the Acting Regional Director on February 11, 2019, an election by mail ballot was conducted on February 25, among the employees employed in the following unit: All full-time and regular part-time armed and unarmed security officers employed by Paragon Systems, Inc. at the Federal Protective Service sites located in Manhattan, the Bronx, West Nyack, Yonkers, New Rochelle, White Plains, and Peekskill, New York, covered under Paragon Systems, Inc.’s June 1, 2018, service contract with the United States Government, but excluding all other employees and supervisors as defined by Section 2(11) of the Act.
The Tally of Ballots, made available to the parties pursuant to the Board’s Rules and Regulations on March 20, showed the following results:
Approximate number of eligible voters 315 Number of void ballots 9 Number of ballots cast for the Petitioner 7 Number of ballots cast for the Intervenor 167 Number of votes cast against participating labor organization 34 Number of valid votes counted 208 Number of challenged ballots 1 Number of valid votes counted plus challenged ballots 209
Challenges are not sufficient in number to affect the results of the election. A majority of the valid votes counted has been cast for the Intervenor.
Accordingly, I further recommend that the Intervenor be certified as the exclusive collective bargaining agent of the following appropriate unit: All full-time and regular part-time armed and unarmed security officers employed by Paragon Systems, Inc. at the Federal Protective Service sites located in Manhattan, -the Bronx, West Nyack, Yonkers, New Rochelle, White Plains, and Peekskill, New York, covered under Paragon Systems,. Inc.’s June 1, 2018, service contract with the United States Government, but excluding all other employees and supervisors as defined by Section 2(11) of the Act.
With this major ruling by the NLRB on May 15, 2019, in favor of LEOSU and against the National League of Justice and Security Professionals (NLJSP) it seems this was a death blow for the NLJSP who at a membership of just 175 members had just disclaimed interest in a unit consisting of 70 members at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration as well as disclaiming interest at the Department of Education and Housing and Urban development Facility another Paragon Systems, Inc unit in Washington DC, Case Number: 05-RC-241434.
Newly obtained documents reveal that SPFPA Director At Large Dwayne Phillips is the real culprit and scoundrel behind a newly created ANTI-LEOSU website which depicted defamatory YouTube videos & pictures against our union LEOSU and its Director. The admission came to light only after the LEOSU had the website taken down after filing a copyright infringement claim against SPFPA. SPFPA Director At Large Director Dwayne Phillips admission now sets the stage for a defamation lawsuit which will soon to be filed by LEOSU’s legal counsel, not only against Phillips personally, but also against the International Union, Security, Police & Fire Professionals of America SPFPA whom he is employed. The SPFPA is well known in the security industry for setting up these kind of shady websites as well as for its Union-Busting propaganda tactics and ANTI-LEOSU YouTube Videos. SPFPA has a long history of corruption & embezzlement under the leadership of David L. Hickey.

On Tuesday November 27th the casino security officers working at MGM Springfield in Massachusetts will have an opportunity to have their voices heard when on this day they will be voting on whether or not to be represented by the MGM Springfield Casino Law Enforcement Officers Security Union, LEOSU, for the purposes of collective bargaining.
On Tuesday November 27th the casino security officers working at MGM Springfield in Massachusetts will have an opportunity to have their voices heard when on this day they will be voting on whether or not to be represented by the MGM Springfield Casino Law Enforcement Officers Security Union, LEOSU, for the purposes of collective bargaining.
Presently many of the MGM Springfield casino employees have already sought unionization and are presently represented by other national and local unions based on a neutrality agreement.
When an employer signs a neutrality agreement it agrees to allow its employees to unionize without any interference from the company. Meaning it stays neutral and allows it’s employees to decide for themselves on whether or not to unionize.
Once the majority of employees signup to unionize the union then requests the employer to voluntarily recognize its employees right to join a union by requesting a card check which is verified by an independent party, thus bypassing an NLRB election.
While MGM Springfield has allowed most of its employees to unionize under a neutrality agreement the same cannot be said for casino security officers. In this case MGM has decided to fight and has refused to RESPECT its casino security officers rights to unionize. MGM has even gone to the extreme by hiring a third party Union-Busting consulting firm whose sole purpose is to defeat these casino security officers from forming a union.
In MGM Springfield’s attempt to gain 100% control again they have hired the Union-Busting consulting firm of GOVERNMENT RESOURCES CONSULTANTS OF AMERICA a Chicago based firm.
Based on the activity so far, this MGM Springfield Union-Busting campaign is expected to run between $500,000 to one Million dollars as more Union-Busting persuaders are appearing each day.
LEOSU Organizing Director Steve Maritas has noted, ironically MGM management has hired the best Union-Busting consulting firm in the business to represent managements interests, then they tell their employees they don’t need a union to represent their interests. This is Hypocrisy at its best.
While MGM pretends to have the casino security officers best interest at heart, the truth of the matter is, management is not concerned about workers’ rights but intern they are more concern with keeping 100% control of their business to do whatever they want, whenever they want, at all costs.
Martin Jay Levitt author of Confession of a union buster defines Union-Busting as a practice that is undertaken by an employer or their agents to prevent employees from joining a union or to disempower, subvert or destroy unions that already exist
Union busting is a field populated by bullies and built on deceit. A campaign against a union is an assault on individuals and a war on truth. As such, it is a war without honor. The only way to bust a union is to lie, distort, manipulate, threaten, and always, always attack. said Maritas
Union Busting is nothing more than psychological warfare.
Psychological warfare is defined as the planned use of propaganda and other psychological actions having the primary purpose of influencing the opinions, emotions, attitudes and behavior of hostile groups which are MGM union supporters in such a way as to support the achievement of national objectives which is the company.
MGM is known for its anti-union stance when it comes to security officers due to the fact that under the gaming commission rules and regulations, a casino cannot open if casino security officers should decide to call off sick or walk off the job. MGM knows this and fears this type of power.
Several MGM Casino security officers who wish to remain anonymous noted that the lack of trust, broken promises, the lack of job security and RESPECT had motivated them to seek union representation. They noted when they were hired the officers were promised $18 an hour after 90 days, but now only receive $16 an hour. MGM management outright lied to us. They broke their promises and our trust.

The duties of a police officer, also known as a law enforcement officer, focus on protecting people and property. They patrol the areas they are assigned, which sometimes include entire jurisdictions, respond to calls, enforce laws, make arrests, issue citations, and occasionally testify in court cases.
Today state and local law enforcement agencies employed more than 1.1 million people on a full-time basis, including about 765,000 sworn personnel (defined as those with general arrest powers).
In addition to the above the U.S. Department of Labor statistics claims that there are over 1.1 million private security guards in the U.S. today. This number includes special police officers, protective service officers and federal contract guards.
While the private security industry numbers 1.1 million people, very few of these private security professionals are unionized and today there are less than a dozen security police and law enforcement unions in the United States who specialize in and are certifiable by the National Labor Relations Board to represent private security professionals.
The Law Enforcement officers security Unions LEOSU, LEOS-PBA is the authority of law enforcement unions, that is certifiable by the NLRB to represent any type of private security professional within the security industry. Whether you work at a federal facility or building in Washington DC, New York, California, or you work at a correctional facility, nuclear facility, airport, casino, hospital or mall the Law Enforcement Officers Unions LEOSU can and will be able to represent you and your fellow officers.
