Decisions and Opinions of the Illinois State Labor Relations Board
Section 6.1 of the Illinois Public Labor Relations Act, 5 ILCS 315 (2012), allows the Governor to designate certain employment positions with the State of Illinois as excluded from collective bargaining rights which might otherwise be available under Section 6 of the Act. This case involves such designations made on the Governors behalf by the Illinois Department of Central Management Services (CMS). On April 30, 2014, Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) Deena Sanceda issued a Recommended Decision and Order (RDO) in this case, finding that the designations were properly made.
