WHAT THEN? What if the public employer and labor organization fail to reach an agreement on a new or successor collective bargaining agreement?
The law prohibits public employees from striking. It also prohibits public employers from unilaterally changing terms and conditions of employment. The Division of Labor Relations administers procedures for resolving collective bargaining impasses under the public employee collective bargaining law. These procedures comprise mediation, fact-finding and interest arbitration. Impasse resolution services for police and firefighters are provided by the Joint Labor-Management Committee (JLMC).
