Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Illinois Public Labor Relations Act and the Illinois Educational Labor Relations Act. Provides that the Illinois Labor Relations Board or the Illinois Educational Labor Relations Board shall: designate a representative for purposes of collective bargaining when the representative demonstrates a showing of majority interest by employees in a unit; ascertain the employees' choice of employee organization in the case of a dispute on the basis of dues deduction authorization and other evidence, or, if necessary, by conducting an election; conduct an election if the dues deduction authorizations and other evidence are fraudulent or were obtained through coercion; and investigate and consider a party's allegations that the dues deduction authorizations and other evidence submitted in support of a designation of representative without an election were subsequently changed, altered, withdrawn, or withheld as a result of fraud, coercion, or unfair labor practice by the employer and designate the representative without conducting an election if it determines that a representative would have had a majority interest but for the employer's fraud, coercion, or unfair labor practice. Effective immediately.

House Floor Amendment No. 1
Provides that the Illinois Labor Relations Board or the Illinois Educational Labor Relations Board shall designate an exclusive representative (rather than a representative) under specified circumstances. Makes other changes.

Senate Committee Amendment No. 1
In the Illinois Public Labor Relations Act, provides that a labor organization shall be designated as the exclusive representative by a public employer if the labor organization represents a majority of the public employees in an appropriate unit. In the Illinois Educational Labor Relations Act, provides that: an educational employer shall (rather than may) voluntarily recognize a labor organization for collective bargaining purposes if that organization appears to represent a majority of employees in the unit; and any dispute regarding the majority status of a labor organization shall be resolved by the Illinois Educational Labor Relations Board which shall make the determination of majority status.
