of employment membership therein on or after the thirtieth day following
the beginning of that employment or on the effective date of the
agreement, whichever is the later;
(d) Discharging or otherwise discriminating against an employee because he
or she has signed or filed any affidavit, petition, or complaint or given any

which is the exclusive representative of employees in an appropriate unit,
including but not limited to the discussing of grievances with the exclusive
representative.
Labor organizations or their agents are prohibited from:
(a) Restraining or coercing:
1.
Police officers in the exercise of the right guaranteed in KRS
67C.402; and
2.
A consolidated local government in the selection of a representative
for the purposes of collective bargaining or the adjustment of
grievances; or
(b) Refusing to bargain collectively in good faith with a consolidated local
government, if they have been designated in accordance with the
provisions of this section as the exclusive representative of police officers

For the purposes of this section, to bargain collectively is to carry out in good
faith the mutual obligation of the parties, or their representatives; to meet
together at reasonable times, including meetings in advance of the
budget-making process; to negotiate in good faith with respect to wages,
