Section 110001.

It is the purpose of this title to promote full communication between the California In-Home Supportive Services Authority (the Statewide Authority) and the recognized employee organization representing individual providers by providing a reasonable method of resolving disputes regarding wages, benefits, and other terms and conditions of employment, as defined in Section 110023, between the Statewide Authority for in-home supportive services and recognized employee organizations. It is also the purpose of this title to promote the improvement of personnel management and employer-employee relations within the Statewide Authority by providing a uniform basis for recognizing the right of individual providers to join organizations of their own choice and be represented by those organizations for purposes of collective bargaining with the Statewide Authority. This title is intended to strengthen methods of administering employer-employee relations through the establishment of uniform and orderly methods of communication between the recognized employee organizations and the Statewide Authority. Except as expressly provided herein, this title is not intended to require changes in existing bargaining units or memoranda of agreement or understanding.
