Requires subsidiaries of certain transportation authorities and their employees to submit all unresolvable contract negotiations to binding arbitration

Bill A 8436 mandates that subsidiaries of specific transportation authorities, including the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA), Niagara Frontier, Rochester-Genesee, Capital District, and Central New York regional transportation authorities, and their employees must submit unresolved contract negotiations to binding arbitration. This means if voluntary agreement cannot be reached, a dispute will be referred to a three-member public arbitration panel. Each party (employer and employee organization) appoints one member, and a neutral third public member is jointly chosen. The panel's decision would then be binding, providing a final resolution to contract disputes.
