  • (1) The director may exercise jurisdiction over any dispute between employer and employee affecting conditions of employment, or with respect to wages or hours, only when the employer and the employee request such intervention or when the dispute, as determined by the executive director, affects the public interest, and such jurisdiction shall continue until after the final hearing of such dispute and the entry of the final award therein or until said director shall enter an order disposing of or terminating such jurisdiction. The relation of the employer and employee shall continue uninterrupted by the dispute or anything arising out of the dispute until the final determination thereof by said director; and neither the employer nor any employee affected by any such dispute shall alter the conditions of employment with respect to wages or hours or any other condition of said employment; neither shall they, on account of such dispute, do or be concerned in doing directly or indirectly anything in the nature of a lockout or strike or suspension or discontinuance of work or employment.

  • (2) A request for intervention shall be submitted to the director by both the employer and the employee and shall set forth the facts, issues, or demands involved in the controversy or dispute, and each party to such dispute shall furnish the director such information within the time and as may be requested by the director.

  • (3) If either party uses this or any other provision of articles 1 to 18 of this title and part 3 of article 34 of title 24, C.R.S., for the purpose of unjustly maintaining a given condition of affairs through delay, such party is guilty of a misdemeanor and, upon conviction thereof, shall be punished by a fine of not more than one hundred dollars.

  • (4) The director shall proceed with reasonable diligence in hearing all disputes and shall render a final award or decision therein without unnecessary delay.
