What is the role of OCB with respect to negotiations?
OCB negotiates on behalf of state agencies, departments, boards and commissions with the five unions representing state employees. OCB does not negotiate on behalf of all statewide elected officials, nor does it negotiate on behalf of the boards of trustees of colleges and universities, who are considered separate public employers. Section 4117.10(D), Revised Code, grants express authority to OCB to deal with issues affecting wages, hours, terms and conditions of employment. This means that once a collective bargaining agreement has been negotiated, OCB must be involved in approving any subsequent agreement (such as a memorandum of understanding) between a union and a state agency that in any way modifies the wages, hours, terms or conditions of employment.
