Employee Relations Commission
The Executive Office provides staff support for the Employee
Relations Commission (ERCOM), a body established by Ordinance
in 1969, to regulate labor relations in Los Angeles County. The
focus of the Commission is centered upon the establishment of
bargaining units, the conduct of elections for certification and
decertification of unions, and the investigation and hearing of
unfair labor practice charges filed by employees, unions, and
departments. The Commission also administers the processing of
arbitration cases within the County.
Recently, the Commission has been conducting a number of "agency
shop" elections in various
bargaining units pursuant to contract language in a number of
agreements. In addition, the Commission has adapted to a substantial
increase in the number of hearings granted to individual employees.
The Commission staff is unified with that of the Civil Service
Commission thereby making the staff of these commissions more
efficient.
