REDFIELD (AP) — A workers union is alleging that the state-run South Dakota Developmental Center is chronically understaffed and puts employees at risk of injury.
The union has filed charges with the state Department of Labor and Regulation claiming unfair labor practices at the Redfield facility, where care is provided for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
The American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees chapter is also alleging that the center has denied state employees their right to union representation.
