Bill > SB1166

This bill would grant the Public Employment Relations Board (PERB), a state agency that resolves disputes and enforces the rights of public employees and employers in collective bargaining, jurisdiction over unfair labor practice charges for represented employees of the Alameda-Contra Costa Transit District (AC Transit). If AC Transit's employee unions choose to opt into PERB's jurisdiction for these matters, PERB would be responsible for determining if unfair practices have occurred and what remedies are appropriate, with some exceptions for damages related to unlawful strikes. The bill also requires AC Transit to provide advance written notice to employee representatives before making changes to issues covered by their collective bargaining agreements, and it establishes procedures for appealing PERB decisions or for PERB to seek court enforcement of its orders. This legislation is considered a special statute because it addresses the unique needs of AC Transit in handling labor disputes.
