What is “prior notification,” and why is it required?

In 18. Labor Relations
Tagged Employee Relations Handbook, Meet and Confer, Representation, union

By statute and contract, unions have the right to be notified about planned changes in the terms and conditions of employment, and to meet and express their views prior to implementation of the changes. Management has a duty to meet in good faith and to give full consideration to the opinions and suggestions of unions in the meet and confer process.

The Employee & Labor Relations Division is available for consultation regarding the process for meeting and conferring with employee organizations when there is a rule or workplace change that impacts that organization’s employees, from the initiation of this process to conclusion. Please consult with Employee & Labor Relations whenever you initiate a change in order to determine if you must or should notice employee organizations and/or meet and confer.
