AB 501 Expands Exclusive Representation Rights to “All Public School Employees”

AB 501 expands the definition of “employer” and “employee” under the Educational Employment Relations Act. A public school employer now includes joint powers agencies and auxiliary organizations established by the California Community Colleges. All public school employees, except those elected or appointed, and management and confidential employees, now have the right to exclusive representation. Non-classified employees, such as yard duty supervisors, who traditionally did not have representation rights, now have those rights under AB 501. For more information, please see our Legal Alert.
