AI Summary

This bill requires hospitals licensed in Oregon to submit an annual report to the Bureau of Labor and Industries (BOLI) and the Oregon Health Authority detailing any expenditures related to efforts to counter labor organizing activities. Specifically, hospitals must disclose the amount of money they spend on third-party consultants or strategies designed to discourage, prevent, or avoid labor unionization attempts. The reporting will be done in a format determined by BOLI, and applies to all hospitals licensed under Oregon Revised Statute (ORS) 441.025. The bill aims to increase transparency around hospitals' labor relations practices by mandating public disclosure of anti-union spending, which could potentially help workers, labor organizations, and regulators understand the extent of employers' efforts to resist unionization attempts.
