SRES 285 United States Senate · 118th Congress

A resolution to provide for the approval of final regulations relating to Federal service labor-management relations that are applicable to the Senate and the employees of the Senate, and that were issued by the Office of Compliance, now known as the Office of Congressional Workplace Rights, on August 19, 1996, and for other purposes.

This resolution approves 1996 regulations governing labor-management relations for Senate employees. It applies standard federal labor rules (from Chapter 71) to specific Senate workplaces, including leadership offices, committees, and staff units like the Office of the Secretary of the Senate. The regulations define covered employees and outline how labor-management procedures - such as collective bargaining and grievance processes - will operate within these Senate offices. As a procedural approval of existing rules (not new policy), it does not change current workplace practices but formally adopts the 1996 framework for Senate staff.
