make certain federal laws applicable to public employees.

This bill would require South Dakota public employees to comply with certain federal laws that currently apply to private sector workers. The legislation aims to extend specific federal regulations, such as those related to workplace safety and employment practices, to cover state and local government workers. By aligning public employee protections with federal standards, the bill seeks to create more consistent rules across different types of employers. The measure does not specify which federal laws are included, leaving that determination to the implementing agencies.
