Guam § 10109 - Exclusive Recognition of Employee Organizations.

§ 10109. Exclusive Recognition of Employee Organizations.

Government management officials shall recognize a

qualified employee organization as the exclusive representative

of public employees in an appropriate employee unit when

determination is made that the organization has a membership of

not less than ten percent (10%) of the total number of employees

in the unit, and has been designated as their exclusive repre-

sentative by a majority of the unit employees, except that such

recognition shall not preclude:

(a) any public employee, regardless of employee

organization membership, from consulting with appropriate

government officials on matters of personal concern to such

employee or from choosing his own representative in a

grievance or appellate procedure; and

(b) consultations between government officials and

other lawful special interest groups or associations on

policies or matters of concern to public employee members

of such groups, provided that, such consultations shall not

result in actions inconsistent with the recognition of an

exclusive representative in an employee unit or adverse to

the interest of other employees in such units.
