Bill Summary
Authorizing supervisory employees of the Baltimore County Public Library to form, join, and participate in an employee organization and engage in certain other activities related to collective bargaining; authorizing certain bargaining units for the employees of the Baltimore County Public Library; and altering certain provisions to provide that an employee may be deemed a certain management employee, rather than a supervisory employee, under certain circumstances.
AI Summary
This bill modifies the collective bargaining rights for employees of the Baltimore County Public Library by allowing supervisory employees to form, join, and participate in employee organizations. The bill redefines employment categories by distinguishing between management and non-management employees, and creates two potential bargaining units: one for non-supervisory employees and another for supervisory employees. Specifically, the bill changes how "management employees" are defined, focusing on those who formulate policy, have significant roles in personnel administration or budget preparation, or assist in collective bargaining negotiations. The legislation allows an employee who can recommend certain actions to be considered a management employee if their decision-making requires independent judgment beyond routine tasks. The bill also ensures that existing bargaining units and collective bargaining agreements in place by June 30, 2025, will not be modified or terminated. These changes aim to provide clearer guidelines for employee classification and collective bargaining rights within the Baltimore County Public Library system, with the new provisions set to take effect on July 1, 2025.
