Bill Summary

Reinserts the provisions of Senate Amendment No. 1 with the following changes. In the definition of "supervisor", provides that, with respect to a police officer, other than a police officer employed by the Illinois State Police, for municipal police officers, "in a permanent rank" shall mean those not subject to promotional testing under certain provisions of the Illinois Municipal Code (rather than, with respect to a police officer, other than a police officer employed by the Illinois State Police, any officer in a permanent rank for which the police officer is appointed, which for municipal police officers shall mean those not subject to promotional testing under certain provisions of the Illinois Municipal Code). In exclusions from the definition of "supervisor", provides that "supervisor" does not include a police officer who is in a rank for which the police officer must complete a certain written test (rather than must test).

AI Summary

This bill modifies the definition of "supervisor" in the Illinois Public Labor Relations Act, specifically focusing on police officers. The bill clarifies that for municipal police officers, "in a permanent rank" means those not subject to promotional testing under certain provisions of the Illinois Municipal Code. For state police, supervisors are defined as those with the rank of Major or above. The bill introduces several important exclusions to the definition of "supervisor" for police officers, including those excluded by collective bargaining agreements, those in ranks requiring a written test for promotion, and those in positions historically covered by collective bargaining agreements. Notably, the bill specifies that these exclusions apply only for collective bargaining purposes, and supervisory-ranked employees are still expected to perform supervisory functions. The bill aims to provide more precise guidance on how police officer supervisory status is determined, taking into account various factors such as rank, testing requirements, and collective bargaining agreements. The changes will take effect on July 1, 2026.
