The House Government Operations and Political Subdivisions Subcommittee convened to discuss bills, including House Bill 140, Human Resource Management Amendments.
UPEA has been negotiating with the bill’s sponsor, Rep. Brad Dee, R-Ogden, and DHRM to find an equitable middle ground between management and employees.
During testimony, Dee said, “Out of all the labor groups, UPEA has been very helpful. They’ve negotiated very hard.” Dee promised to continue negotiations with UPEA.
Initially, the bill struck a number of employer actions that employees could grieve. UPEA has made headway to include issues of personnel rules and equitable administration of benefits. We are working on issues concerning written reprimands, salary and wages.
HB 140 passed the committee 6 – 3. UPEA will update members as the bill progresses.
