Sponsor's memo
Title of bill
An act to amend the civil service law, in relation to jurisdiction over improper employer practices
Purpose
To amend the law so that those members of the first responder community which already negotiate with the Public Employment Relations Board for collective negotiations can also seek resolution for the adjudication of improper practices from the same board.
Summary of provisions
Section two hundred and twelve of the civil service law is amended to allow the Public Employment Relations Board to handle adjudication of improper practices. Section two hundred and five of the civil service law is amended to further clarify the change.
Justification
As currently the police officers, fire fighters, detective-investigators, and some rackets investigators employed by the office of a district attorney can negotiate collective bargaining with the Public Employment Relations Board, this bill seeks to extend that negotiation to include the adjudication of improper practice as well. This will streamline labor issues for these employees, as they will only be dealing with one board for most issues.
