AN ACT RELATING TO LABOR AND LABOR RELATIONS -- MUNICIPAL POLICE ARBITRATION

Summary

The bill amends Rhode Island law so that the contractual provisions in a municipal police collective bargaining agreement stay in force for the next agreement unless a written change is proposed within 30 days. It applies to police unions and city authorities, ensuring continuity of arbitration rules until a successor contract or an interest‑arbitration decision occurs. This prevents gaps in the arbitration framework for municipal police labor disputes.
