Roster of arbitrators for peace officer grievances modified.
Introduction and first reading, referred to Public Safety Finance and Policy
Summary
The bill directs the state commissioner, after consulting community and law‑enforcement groups, to appoint six qualified arbitrators for peace‑officer grievance hearings. It adds factors such as cultural competency and implicit‑bias training to the selection process and removes a prior limit that barred those arbitrators from serving in other labor arbitrations. The change aims to improve fairness and representation in police grievance resolutions.
