PERC: The Public Employees Relations Commission (PERC) – see  http://perc.myflorida.com/ – consists of three commissioners (appointed by the governor) who hold hearings and resolve disputes about issues relevant to public employees who have the constitutional right to collective bargaining. They also decide about allegations of unfair labor practices. Hearing Officers (experienced attorneys) issue recommendations in cases, and the commission reviews the recommendation and then issues the final order.

ULP:  More information about Unfair Labor Practices (ULP) can be found in section 501 of Chapter 447 of the Florida Statutes .

The final order in Case 2019-031 was issued by PERC on February 5, 2021; the Commission SUSTAINED the Union’s unfair labor practice charge pertaining to applying section 112.313(7)(a), Florida Statutes, in an overbroad manner.
