HB 1482 - DIGEST

     Finds that there is a significant benefit in providing government services through a competitive system in which both public and private entities participate.  The legislature also finds that updating the state civil service system and improving the system's classification of jobs to more clearly distinguish between management and nonmanagement personnel are needed to bring the system into the twenty-first century.  Finds that extending collective bargaining to wages and conditions of employment and making state agencies responsible for what they do rather than how they do it will improve government accountability.

     Repeals various provisions.
