Bill > HB698

This bill generally revises laws related to exclusive representatives of public employees. It amends the definition of "proof of interest" to specify the requirements for a document submitted to the Board of Personnel Appeals in support of a petition to certify or decertify a labor organization as the exclusive representative of an appropriate unit of public employees. The bill also modifies the process for determining whether there is a question of representation and the requirements for a labor organization to be certified as the exclusive representative of public employees. Additionally, it allows public employees to petition the board to decertify an exclusive representative or select a different labor organization as the exclusive representative after a 12-month period following a valid election.
