AB56,1390 24Section 1390. 111.01 of the statutes is created to read:
AB56,798,3
1111.01 Declaration of policy. The public policy of the state as to employment
2relations and collective bargaining, in the furtherance of which this subchapter is
3enacted, is declared to be as follows:
AB56,798,7 4(1) It recognizes that there are 3 major interests involved, namely: the public,
5the employee, and the employer. These 3 interests are to a considerable extent
6interrelated. It is the policy of the state to protect and promote each of these interests
7with due regard to the situation and to the rights of the others.
AB56,798,21 8(2) Industrial peace, regular and adequate income for the employee, and
9uninterrupted production of goods and services are promotive of all of these
10interests. They are largely dependent upon the maintenance of fair, friendly, and
11mutually satisfactory employment relations and the availability of suitable
12machinery for the peaceful adjustment of whatever controversies may arise. It is
13recognized that certain employers, including farmers, farmer cooperatives, and
14unincorporated farmer cooperative associations, in addition to their general
15employer problems, face special problems arising from perishable commodities and
16seasonal production that require adequate consideration. It is also recognized that
17whatever may be the rights of disputants with respect to each other in any
18controversy regarding employment relations, they should not be permitted, in the
19conduct of their controversy, to intrude directly into the primary rights of 3rd parties
20to earn a livelihood, transact business, and engage in the ordinary affairs of life by
21any lawful means and free from molestation, interference, restraint, or coercion.
AB56,799,2 22(3) Negotiations of terms and conditions of work should result from voluntary
23agreement between employer and employee. For the purpose of such negotiation an
24employee has the right, if the employee desires, to associate with others in organizing

1and bargaining collectively through representatives of the employee's own choosing,
2without intimidation or coercion from any source.
AB56,799,9 3(4) It is the policy of the state, in order to preserve and promote the interests
4of the public, the employee, and the employer alike, to establish standards of fair
5conduct in employment relations and to provide a convenient, expeditious, and
6impartial tribunal by which these interests may have their respective rights and
7obligations adjudicated. While limiting individual and group rights of aggression
8and defense, the state substitutes processes of justice for the more primitive methods
9of trial by combat.
AB56,1391 10Section 1391. 111.04 (1) and (2) of the statutes are consolidated, renumbered
11111.04 and amended to read:

13self-organization and the right to form, join or assist labor organizations, to bargain
14collectively through representatives of their own choosing, and to engage in lawful,
15concerted activities for the purpose of collective bargaining or other mutual aid or
16protection. (2) Employees shall also have the right to refrain from self-organization;
17forming, joining, or assisting labor organizations; bargaining collectively through
18representatives; or engaging in activities for the purpose of collective bargaining or
19other mutual aid or protection
such activities.

23organization, employee agency, committee, association, or representation plan by
24discrimination in regard to hiring, tenure, or other terms or conditions of
25employment except in a collective bargaining unit where an all-union, fair-share,

1or maintenance of membership agreement is in effect. An employer may enter into
2an all-union agreement with the voluntarily recognized representative of the
3employees in a collective bargaining unit, where at least a majority of such employees
4voting have voted affirmatively, by secret ballot, in favor of the all-union agreement
5in a referendum conducted by the commission, except that where the bargaining
6representative has been certified by either the commission or the national labor
7relations board as the result of a representation election, no referendum is required
8to authorize the entry into an all-union agreement. An authorization of an all-union
9agreement continues, subject to the right of either party to the all-union agreement
10to petition the commission to conduct a new referendum on the subject. Upon receipt
11of the petition, if the commission determines there is reasonable ground to believe
12that the employees concerned have changed their attitude toward the all-union
13agreement, the commission shall conduct a referendum. If the continuance of the
14all-union agreement is supported on a referendum by a vote at least equal to that
15provided in this paragraph for its initial authorization, it may continue, subject to
16the right to petition for a further vote by the procedure under this paragraph. If the
17continuance of the all-union agreement is not supported on a referendum, it
18terminates at the expiration of the contract of which it is then a part or at the end
19of one year from the date of the announcement by the commission of the result of the
20referendum, whichever is earlier. The commission shall declare any all-union
21agreement terminated whenever it finds that the labor organization involved has
22unreasonably refused to receive as a member any employee of such employer. An
23interested person may, as provided in s. 111.07, request the commission to perform
24this duty
.

AB56,802,817 111.31 (1) The legislature finds that the practice of unfair discrimination in

20orientation, arrest record, conviction record, military service, use or nonuse of lawful
21products off the employer's premises during nonworking hours, or declining to
22attend a meeting or to participate in any communication about religious matters or
23political matters, substantially and adversely affects the general welfare of the state.
