Bill Summary
An Act to renumber and amend 111.91 (3); to amend 111.825 (5) and 111.91 (3q); and to create 111.91 (3) (bm) of the statutes; Relating to: collective bargaining over workplace safety for employees of the Department of Corrections.
AI Summary
This bill allows employees of the Department of Corrections to collectively bargain over workplace safety issues, which is a significant change because previously, supervisors in the classified service could only bargain over wages and fringe benefits, and the bill specifically carves out workplace safety for corrections employees as a subject for collective bargaining, overriding a general provision that requires voter approval for wage increases exceeding a certain amount. The bill also makes technical changes to existing statutes, renumbering and amending sections related to collective bargaining and clarifying how wage increase compliance is determined, and these changes will take effect when existing collective bargaining agreements for these employees expire or are renewed.
