Adamrovich unlikely to ever return to prison work

LEAVITTSBURG — Though neither the union nor management will say for sure, the settlement agreement for Trumbull Corrrectional Institute sergeant George Adamrovich appears to make it unlikely he will ever return to work.

“I don’t anticipate that,” Pamela Keresztesy, a public information officer at the prison, said Wednesday when asked whether the agreement would allow him to return to work.

Peter Wray, a spokesperson for the Ohio Civil Service Employees Association, Local 11, which represents prison employees, said he doesn’t know for sure that the agreement ends Adamrovich’s prison career.

The agreement, signed at the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Corrections’ Central Offices in Columbus April 12, says Adamrovich, 58 of Hubbard, will “take no action to initiate reinstatement to employment” with the state prison system.

Adamrovich was approved on Feb. 21 to retire on a disability through the Ohio Public Employees Retirement System. A calculation of benefits based on OPERS information puts his payments at around $400 per week. In exchange for Adamrovich signing the agreement, the ODRC agreed to hold Adamrovich’s October firing in abeyance.
