SB 286 West Virginia Senate · 2026 Regular Session

WV State Police rule relating to WV State Police member grievance procedure

SB 286 authorizes the West Virginia State Police to implement a specific grievance procedure rule (81 CSR 08) that was previously modified to address concerns raised by the Legislative Rule-Making Review Committee. The bill does not create new policies but formally approves an existing rule governing how state police members can file and resolve workplace grievances. This directly affects West Virginia State Police officers who would use this procedure for disputes related to employment. The rule was refiled after adjustments and is now officially authorized under state law.
