Public Sector Labor and Employment Law (2006)

This program provides practitioners in the area with a valuable resource to explore some of the more complex issues of municipal employee labor relations.

The program includes five topics: (1) Issues relating to post-impasse procedures, such as mediation, fact finding and interest arbitration; (2) Issues relating to collective bargaining, such as negotiating 403-b plans that conform to the IRS Code and drafting of settlement agreements to insure that they are in accordance with various tax laws; (3) An overview of recent Public Employment Relations Board cases that have had an impact in public sector labor practice; (4) Issues relating to retiring or already retired employees, such as negotiating retirement incentives and the unique issues that arise in dealing with the New York State Retirement Systems; and (5) A presentation on the sometimes thorny ethical issues when representing municipal employers and employees.

This program is geared to the practitioner who is currently practicing in the field.
