Bill > HB1404

This bill amends Indiana Code by adding a new section to Chapter 22-6-1, which deals with limitations on injunctions in labor disputes, to clarify that this chapter does not apply to cases seeking a workplace violence restraining order under IC 34-26-6. Specifically, it allows for such restraining orders to protect an employee from unlawful violence or a credible threat of violence when the dispute is solely between two employees over a personal matter and does not involve issues covered by a collective bargaining agreement, which is a formal contract between an employer and a union representing employees. This change aims to ensure that employees can seek protection from workplace violence stemming from personal conflicts between colleagues, even if such conflicts might otherwise be subject to the restrictions on injunctions in labor disputes.
