Bill Summary
CONCERNING PUBLIC EMPLOYEES' WORKPLACE PROTECTION FROM EMPLOYER RETALIATION, AND, IN CONNECTION THEREWITH, MAKING AN APPROPRIATION.
AI Summary
This bill, called the "Protections for Public Workers Act," aims to provide various workplace protections for public employees in Colorado. It establishes that public employees have the right to express their views on workplace issues, engage in protected concerted activity, fully participate in the political process while off-duty, and organize or join employee organizations. The bill also prohibits public employers from discriminating, coercing, or retaliating against employees for exercising these rights. The Division of Labor Standards and Statistics within the Department of Labor and Employment will enforce the provisions of the bill and promulgate rules as necessary. The bill also appropriates funds to the Department of Labor and Employment and the Department of Law to implement the act.
