408.00000 – EMPLOYER INTERFERENCE, RESTRAINT, COERCION; INTERFERENCE WITH RIGHT TO SELF OR UNION REPRESENTATION; WEINGARTEN RIGHTS
408.03000 – Investigatory Interviews

An investigatory or disciplinary interview falls within the broad definition of “all matters of employer-employee relations” and Dills Act section 3515 therefore grants state employees representational rights that are at least as broad as those afforded private sector employees under NLRB v. J. Weingarten, Inc. (1975) 420 U.S. 251 and other federal authorities interpreting section 7 of the National Labor Relations Act. (pp. 24-25.)
