Description of Proposed Guidance Document Changes
The Labor and Employment Law Field Operations Manual is adding Chapter 6A as a guidance document for 16VAC15-70, a new regulation adopted by DOLI to clarify that the statutory requirements that currently apply to any private sector labor organization elections apply to labor organization elections for local government employees, thereby providing equal opportunity, application, and protection of the law for local government employers and employees.
