Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

70 ILCS 3605/29

(70 ILCS 3605/29) (from Ch. 111 2/3, par. 329)

Sec. 29.

If the Authority acquires a transportation system in operation by
a public utility, all of the employees in the operating and maintenance
divisions of such public utility and all other employees except executive
and administrative officers and employees, shall be transferred to and
appointed as employees of the Authority, subject to all rights and benefits
of this Act, and these employees shall be given seniority credit in
accordance with the records and labor agreements of the public utility.
Employees who left the employ of such a public utility to enter the
military service of the United States shall have the same rights as to the
Authority, under the provisions of the Service Member Employment and Reemployment Rights Act as they would have had thereunder as to
such public utility. After such acquisition the authority shall be required
to extend to such former employees of such public utility only the rights
and benefits as to pensions and retirement as are accorded other employees
of the Authority.
