An Act relative to the structure of the Commonwealth Employment Relations Board

This bill restructures the Commonwealth Employment Relations Board by changing its composition to include three members appointed by the governor, with specific roles for representatives of organized labor and municipal management. The new structure ensures that no more than two members belong to the same political party and establishes staggered five-year terms to maintain board independence. Additionally, the legislation clarifies that the board operates independently from the executive office of labor and workforce development, except when sharing non-sensitive information.
