Introduced
by
To repeal a law that prohibits the consolidation of services between local governments unless any transferred employees keep the same same pay, status and benefits that they had in their prior position. The bill would allow a consolidated service arrangement to not be bound by the transferred government employees' previous union contract, wages, pension provisions, insurance benefits, work rules, seniority, etc. Employees would keep any accrued pension benefits, as required by the state constitution.
