Through representation, SPSE seeks to realize all benefits to which its members may be entitled by reason of being LLNL employees.
Representation consists of either services or indemnity or both.
Services consist of advice, counsel, and assistance rendered by competent and qualified persons. Services may include investigation, negotiation, and settlement as well as appearances before administrative, legislative, or judicial tribunals. Indemnity consists of money payment in reimbursement of either a portion of or all actual and necessary represent- ation costs. SPSE will not indemnify anyone for costs or expenses incurred without prior authorization of the SPSE Executive Board. SPSE provides formal representation only in employment related matters.
