State NRA draft aims to curb unfair labor practices
A draft labor deflation bill would allow employers and workers to seek Department of Labor and Industry help in disputes over working agreements. Regional boards would be set up to mediate, with members nonpaid and expenses covered by the state, while unresolved unfair labor practice disputes stay with the Labor Relations Board. The administration also plans a five day 40 hour week for most workers, excluding certain groups, to boost employment and wages. Governor Earle seeks 130.5 million for relief, with a Department of Assistance replacing old boards. Mergers of state police and highway patrol may be proposed to the General Assembly.
