An Act relative to Labor Relations Policies for Committee for Public Counsel Services Employees

This bill (H 5009) clarifies that employees of the Committee for Public Counsel Services (CPCS), a state agency providing legal services, are explicitly covered under Massachusetts labor relations laws. It amends Chapter 150E to define CPCS as a "public employer" and include it in the list of entities subject to those labor relations policies. The bill does not create new policies but ensures CPCS employees have the same labor relations protections as other public employees. This is a procedural update to align CPCS with existing labor law coverage.
