Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS)
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.

Sec. 2.16.
Employee Protection.
(a) The Authority shall insure that every employee of the Authority or
of a Service Board or transportation agency shall receive
fair and equitable protection
against actions of the Authority which shall not be less than those
established pursuant to Section 13(c) of the Urban Mass Transportation Act
of 1964, as amended (49 U.S.C. Sec. 1609(c)), and Section 405(b) of the
Rail Passenger Service Act of 1970, as amended (45 U.S.C. Sec. 565(b)),
and as prescribed by the United States Secretary of Labor thereunder, at
the time of the protective agreement or arbitration decision providing
protection.
(b) The Authority shall negotiate or arrange for the negotiation of such
fair and equitable employee arrangements with the employees, through their
accredited representatives authorized to act for them. If agreement cannot
be reached on the terms of such protective arrangement, any party may
submit any matter in dispute to arbitration. In such arbitration, each
party shall have the right to select non-voting arbitration board members.
The impartial arbitrator will be selected by the American Arbitration
Association and appointed from a current listing of the membership of the
National Academy of Arbitrators, upon request of any party. The impartial
arbitrator's decision shall be final and binding on all parties. Each party
shall pay an equal proportionate share of the impartial arbitrator's fees
and expenses.
(c) For purposes of Sections 2.15 through 2.19, "actions of the
Authority" include its acquisition and operation of public transportation
facilities, the execution of purchase of service agreements and grant
contracts made under this Act and the coordination, reorganization,
combining, leasing, merging of operations or the expansion or curtailment
of public transportation service or facilities by the Authority, but does
not include a failure or refusal to enter into a purchase of service
agreement or grant contract.
