follows:
|
7 | | (1) For court reporters employed by the Cook County |
8 | | Judicial
Circuit, the chief judge of the Cook County |
9 | | Circuit
Court is the public employer and employer |
10 | | representative.
|
11 | | (2) For court reporters employed by the 12th, 18th, |
12 | | 19th, and, on and after December 4, 2006, the 22nd |
13 | | judicial
circuits, a group consisting of the chief judges |
14 | | of those circuits, acting
jointly by majority vote, is the |
15 | | public employer and employer representative.
|
16 | | (3) For court reporters employed by all other judicial |
17 | | circuits,
a group consisting of the chief judges of those |
18 | | circuits, acting jointly by
majority vote, is the public |
19 | | employer and employer representative.
|
20 | | (p) "Security employee" means an employee who is |
21 | | responsible for the
supervision and control of inmates at |
22 | | correctional facilities. The term
also includes other |
23 | | non-security employees in bargaining units having the
majority |
24 | | of employees being responsible for the supervision and control |
25 | | of
inmates at correctional facilities.
|
26 | | (q) "Short-term employee" means an employee who is |
|
| | 10300HB3114ham001 | - 19 - | LRB103 29350 DTM 59101 a |
|
|
1 | | employed for less
than 2 consecutive calendar quarters during |
2 | | a calendar year and who does
not have a reasonable assurance |
3 | | that he or she will be rehired by the
same employer for the |
4 | | same service in a subsequent calendar year.
|
5 | | (q-5) "State agency" means an agency directly responsible |
6 | | to the Governor, as defined in Section 3.1 of the Executive |
7 | | Reorganization Implementation Act, and the Illinois Commerce |
8 | | Commission, the Illinois Workers' Compensation Commission, the |
9 | | Civil Service Commission, the Pollution Control Board, the |
10 | | Illinois Racing Board, and the Illinois State Police Merit |
11 | | Board. |
12 | | (r) "Supervisor" is: |
13 | | (1) An employee whose principal work is substantially
|
14 | | different from that of his or her subordinates and who has |
15 | | authority, in the
interest of the employer, to hire, |
16 | | transfer, suspend, lay off, recall,
promote, discharge, |
17 | | direct, reward, or discipline employees, to adjust
their |
18 | | grievances, or to effectively recommend any of those |
19 | | actions, if the
exercise
of that authority is not of a |
20 | | merely routine or clerical nature, but
requires the |
21 | | consistent use of independent judgment. Except with |
22 | | respect to
police employment, the term "supervisor" |
23 | | includes only those individuals
who devote a preponderance |
24 | | of their employment time to exercising that
authority, |
25 | | State supervisors notwithstanding. Determinations of |
26 | | supervisor status shall be based on actual employee job |
|
| | 10300HB3114ham001 | - 20 - | LRB103 29350 DTM 59101 a |
|
|
1 | | duties and not solely on written job descriptions. |
2 | | Further, in police units, employees shall consist of sworn |
3 | | officers serving as shift commander and below. A shift |
4 | | commander, regardless of sworn rank, may be responsible |
5 | | for several police officers, one or more units or teams, |
6 | | or an entire shift. If there is no sworn rank between that |
7 | | of chief or sheriff and the highest ranked sworn shift |
8 | | commander, the employer may designate a single exempt |
9 | | shift commander position on each shift who is a |
10 | | "supervisor". Each sworn or exempt rank above that of a |
11 | | designated exempt shift commander is a "supervisor". |
12 | | Nothing in this definition prohibits an individual from |
13 | | also meeting the definition of "managerial employee" under |
14 | | subsection (j) of this Section. In addition, in |
15 | | determining
supervisory status in police employment, rank |
16 | | shall not be determinative.
The Board shall consider, as |
17 | | evidence of bargaining unit inclusion or
exclusion, the |
18 | | common law enforcement policies and relationships between
|
19 | | police officer ranks and certification under applicable |
20 | | civil service law,
ordinances, personnel codes, or |
21 | | Division 2.1 of Article 10 of the Illinois
Municipal Code, |
22 | | but these factors shall not
be the sole or predominant |
23 | | factors considered by the Board in determining
police |
24 | | supervisory status.
|
25 | | Notwithstanding the provisions of the preceding |
26 | | paragraph, in determining
supervisory status in fire |
|
| | 10300HB3114ham001 | - 21 - | LRB103 29350 DTM 59101 a |
|
|
1 | | fighter employment, no fire fighter shall be
excluded as a |
2 | | supervisor who has established representation rights under
|
3 | | Section 9 of this Act. Further, in fire fighter units, |
4 | | employees shall
consist of fire fighters of the highest |
5 | | rank of company officer and below. A company officer may |
6 | | be responsible for multiple companies or apparatus on a |
7 | | shift, multiple stations, or an entire shift. There may be |
8 | | more than one company officer per shift. If a company |
9 | | officer otherwise qualifies as a supervisor under the |
10 | | preceding paragraph, however, he or she shall
not be |
11 | | included in the fire fighter
unit. If there is no rank |
12 | | between that of chief and the
highest company officer, the |
13 | | employer may designate a position on each
shift as a Shift |
14 | | Commander, and the persons occupying those positions shall
|
15 | | be supervisors. All other ranks above that of the highest |
16 | | company officer shall be
supervisors.
|
17 | | (2) With respect only to State employees in positions |
18 | | under the jurisdiction of the Attorney General, Secretary |
19 | | of State, Comptroller, or Treasurer (i) that were |
20 | | certified in a bargaining unit on or after December 2, |
21 | | 2008, (ii) for which a petition is filed with the Illinois |
22 | | Public Labor Relations Board on or after April 5, 2013 |
23 | | (the effective date of Public Act 97-1172), or (iii) for |
24 | | which a petition is pending before the Illinois Public |
25 | | Labor Relations Board on that date, an employee who |
26 | | qualifies as a supervisor under (A) Section 152 of the |
|
| | 10300HB3114ham001 | - 22 - | LRB103 29350 DTM 59101 a |
|
|
1 | | National Labor Relations Act and (B) orders of the |
2 | | National Labor Relations Board interpreting that provision |
3 | | or decisions of courts reviewing decisions of the National |
4 | | Labor Relations Board. |
5 | | (s)(1) "Unit" means a class of jobs or positions that are |
6 | | held by
employees whose collective interests may suitably be |
7 | | represented by a labor
organization for collective bargaining. |
8 | | Except with respect to non-State fire
fighters and paramedics |
9 | | employed by fire departments and fire protection
districts, |
10 | | non-State peace officers, and peace officers in the Illinois |
11 | | State Police, a bargaining unit determined by the Board shall |
12 | | not include both
employees and supervisors, or supervisors |
13 | | only, except as provided in paragraph
(2) of this subsection |
14 | | (s) and except for bargaining units in existence on July
1, |
15 | | 1984 (the effective date of this Act). With respect to |
16 | | non-State fire
fighters and paramedics employed by fire |
17 | | departments and fire protection
districts, non-State peace |
18 | | officers, and peace officers in the Illinois State Police, a |
19 | | bargaining unit determined by the Board shall not include both
|
20 | | supervisors and nonsupervisors, or supervisors only, except as |
21 | | provided in
paragraph (2) of this subsection (s) and except |
22 | | for bargaining units in
existence on January 1, 1986 (the |
23 | | effective date of this amendatory Act of
1985). A bargaining |
24 | | unit determined by the Board to contain peace officers
shall |
25 | | contain no employees other than peace officers unless |
26 | | otherwise agreed to
by the employer and the labor organization |
|
| | 10300HB3114ham001 | - 23 - | LRB103 29350 DTM 59101 a |
|
|
1 | | or labor organizations involved.
Notwithstanding any other |
2 | | provision of this Act, a bargaining unit, including a
|
3 | | historical bargaining unit, containing sworn peace officers of |
4 | | the Department
of Natural Resources (formerly designated the |
5 | | Department of Conservation) shall
contain no employees other |
6 | | than such sworn peace officers upon the effective
date of this |
7 | | amendatory Act of 1990 or upon the expiration date of any
|
8 | | collective bargaining agreement in effect upon the effective |
9 | | date of this
amendatory Act of 1990 covering both such sworn |
10 | | peace officers and other
employees.
|
11 | | (2) Notwithstanding the exclusion of supervisors from |
12 | | bargaining units
as provided in paragraph (1) of this |
13 | | subsection (s), a public
employer may agree to permit its |
14 | | supervisory employees to form bargaining units
and may bargain |
15 | | with those units. This Act shall apply if the public employer
|
16 | | chooses to bargain under this subsection.
|
17 | | (3) Public employees who are court reporters, as defined
|
18 | | in the Court Reporters Act,
shall be divided into 3 units for |
19 | | collective bargaining purposes. One unit
shall be court |
20 | | reporters employed by the Cook County Judicial Circuit; one
|
21 | | unit shall be court reporters employed by the 12th, 18th, |
22 | | 19th, and, on and after December 4, 2006, the 22nd judicial
|
23 | | circuits; and one unit shall be court reporters employed by |
24 | | all other
judicial circuits.
