The Public Employment Relations Board (PERB) is a quasi-judicial administrative agency charged with administering the eight collective bargaining statutes covering employees of California's public schools, colleges, and universities, employees of the State of California, employees of California local public agencies (cities, counties and special districts), trial court employees, trial court interpreters, supervisory employees of the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority, and judicial council employees.
PERB's jurisdiction is limited to certain public sector employees. Private sector employees, such as those employed by private hospitals, factories, or corporations, are governed by the National Labor Relations Act. Alleged violations of the National Labor Relations Act must be filed with the National Labor Relations Board, the federal agency charged with enforcing private sector labor relations.
The statutes enforced by PERB do not prohibit all acts of perceived unfairness or discrimination against covered employees; rather, PERB's jurisdiction is limited to resolving claims of unfair practices which violate the applicable Act. For example, PERB has jurisdiction to consider claims by an employee organization that the employer has failed and/or refused to bargain in good faith or has interfered with employee organization rights granted by the statute. Also, an individual employee may file an unfair practice charge alleging that the employer or the employee organization representing him or her has discriminated against the employee in reprisal for protected activity under the Act, or has interfered with rights guaranteed by the Act. An employer may also file a charge against a union, alleging, for example, that the union failed to bargain in good faith.
This is the Los Angeles regional office, located in Glendale. It is located on the fourth floor. The facility charges for parking, so that is less than ideal. Otherwise, nothing out of the ordinary here for a governmental office. Everything appears clean and well managed. read more
