Management would like for you to review and consider the below bulleted items:

  • Implement one overseas escort assignment wheel that will be created to include all of the following: Immigration Enforcement Agents (IEAs), Deportation Officers (DOs), Supervisory Immigration Enforcement Agents (SIEAs) and Supervisory Detention and Deportation Officers (SDDOs).

  • The overseas escort wheel will list all of the above mentioned personnel in descending order based upon the last overseas trip that they completed.

  • The name of all SIEAs and SDDOs will comprise one spot on the rotation list.

  • All escorting teams must consist of one (1) Deportation Officer.

  • At least one (1) of the two (2) escorting officers selected for each foreign escort must be assigned at Chicago or Broadview to allow for local logistical issues—ensuring that the alien is timely transported to BSSA, obtaining visas as needed, coordinating luggage drop off with family members, assisting with cashing checks, coordinating transportation to the airport and other detention duties associated with the removal of an alien.

  • Passing on an escort is not permissible by any of the personnel named in the first bullet for any reason other than approved annual/sick leave, administrative leave, voluntary leave without pay, medical disability or military leave.

  • The foreign escort wheel will be posted on the Share Drive.

RE: Overseas Escort Wheel

AFGE Union Local 2718 and Local 2660

January, 18, 2013,

The AFGE Union Local 2718 and Local 2660 has carefully considered and reviewed Management’s pre-decisional involvement (PDI) proposal regarding the “overseas escort wheel policy” received on December 12, 2012. As exclusive representative of the Bargaining Unit Employee (BUE), the AFGE Union as one collective body has prepared for management a proposal based on the comments and concerns of our bargaining employees.


  • Implement one “overseas escort assignment wheel” that will incorporate all of the following: Immigration Enforcement Agents (IEA), Deportation Officers (DO), Supervisory Immigration Enforcement Agents (SIEA), and Supervisory Detention and Deportation Officer (SDDO).

  • Deportation Officers (DO) and Immigration Enforcement Agents (IEA) will be eligible and assigned to High Profile Removals escorts.

  • The “overseas escort assignment wheel” will list all of the above mentioned personnel in descending order based upon the last overseas trip completed by officers/agents. All other officers and agents not assigned to an “overseas escort assignment” will remain in place, unless otherwise assigned.

  • All officers and/or agents who transfer to the Chicago ICE District Field Office from another field office and/or sub-office will automatically be placed at the bottom of the “overseas escort assignment wheel”. New employees who enter on duty after fully successfully completing the ICE academy training will also be placed at the bottom of the “overseas escort assignment wheel”. New employees must take their first (1) “overseas escort assignment” with a senior deportation officer (DO) and/or Immigration Enforcement Agent (IEA).

  • The name of all SIEA’s and SDDO’s will comprise one single spot on the “overseas escort assignment wheel”.

  • All Deportation Officers (DO) and Immigration Enforcement Agents (IEA) will be eligible for an “overseas escort assignment”.

  • At least one (1) of the two (2) assigned escorting deportation officer(DO) and/or Immigration Enforcement Agent (IEA) selected for each foreign escort must be assigned to the Chicago or Broadview (BSSA) office, in order to allow for local logistical issues-ensuring that the alien is timely transported to BSSA, obtaining visas as needed, coordinating luggage drop off with family members, assisting with cashing checks, coordinating transportation to the airport and other detention duties associated with the removal of the alien.

  • Passing on an “overseas escort assignment” is permissible for any deportation officer (DO) and Immigration Enforcement Agent (IEA).

  • The “overseas escort assignment wheel” will be posted on the Shared Drive and updated before the close of business (COB) every day. An electronic notification, via email, will be forwarded to a member of the local 2718 after deportation officers (DO) and Immigration Enforcement Agents (IEA) have been selected for an “overseas escort assignment”.

  • Deportation Officers assigned to the Fugitive Operations Team will be eligible for “overseas escort assignment”.



The AFGE Union has considered several elements in an effort to maximize manpower and cross train officers and/or agents with minimal disturbance to daily operations.



Respectfully,


Gregory M. Ortiz

Vice President, Union

AFGE Union Local 2718
