Synopsis As Introduced
Creates the Illinois Labor Relations Act. Applies to employees other than: employees who are subject to the National Labor Relations Act or the Railway Labor Act; employees who are managerial employees, confidential employees, or supervisors; and employees of employers to whom the Act does not apply (and provides that the Act does not apply to State officers and agencies, units of local government, school districts, and other public entities). Provides that the State Panel of the Illinois Labor Relations Board shall administer and enforce the Act. Prohibits specified unfair labor practices. Provides that an employer and the exclusive representative of a unit of employees to whom the Act applies have the duty to bargain collectively. Provides for: dues deduction and fair share fees; unfair labor practice procedures; elections to determine exclusive representatives; disputes; enforcement (including administrative actions and actions in the circuit court and appellate court); rulemaking; enforcement of contracts; and other matters.

Senate Committee Amendment No. 1
Deletes everything and re-inserts similar provisions with various changes concerning deductions of dues and fair share fees; includes in the definition of "employer" any entity that is specifically excluded under the Illinois Public Labor Relations Act; includes in the definition of "exclusive representative" a historical representative; and makes a technical correction.

 Fiscal Note (Illinois Labor Relations Board)
 Senate Bill 1791 would increase the agency's workload considerably. The agency anticipates the need for three additional employees at a cost of $143,000 plus other expenses totaling approximately $6,600.
