BILL NUMBER:S2570
Title of bill
An act to repeal paragraph (f) of subdivision 2 of section 210 of the civil service law, relating to the prohibition of strikes by public employees and individual penalties
Summary
This bill repeals the penalty of two days pay for each day a public employee participates in a strike.
Justification
Enactment of this bill would remove from the Taylor Law the excessively punitive penalty of the loss of the second day's pay for each day of a strike. The bill would NOT repeal the prohibition of strikes. Public employee strikes will continue to be penalties for striking. In addition to loss of the second day's pay for each day of a strike, state law includes the following provisions: fines and imprisonment imposed by the courts upon individuals (judiciary Law, Section 751, subdivision 2) -removal or other disciplinary action against individuals (Civil Service Law, Section 210, subdivision 2) -loss of payroll deduction of dues by the employee organization (Civil Service Law, Section 210, subdivision 3) None.
Fiscal implications
None.
