AB 1818STATE · CaliforniaIntroduced

California State University: employer-employee relations: meeting and conferring.

Existing law grants to higher education employees the right to form, join, and participate in the activities of employee organizations for purposes of representation on all matters of employer-employee relations and for the purpose of meeting and conferring. Existing law, for the California State University, prohibits written memoranda reached that require budgetary or curative action by the Legislature or other agencies from being effective unless that action has been taken, and requires an appropriate request for financing or budgetary funding for all state-funded employees or for necessary legislation to be forwarded to the Legislature and the Governor or other funding agencies. Existing law requires the entire memorandum to be referred back to the parties for further meeting and conferring when the memorandum requires legislative action and the Legislature or the Governor fails to fully fund the memorandum or take the requisite curative action, except as specified. This bill would require the above-described determination of whether a memorandum requires legislative action and the Legislature or the Governor fails to fully fund the memorandum or take the requisite curative action to be made by the Public Employment Relations Board by written notification to the parties.
