MMBA section 3505.3 is one of multiple PERB-administered statutes requiring employers to provide reasonable release time to a reasonable number of employees, without loss of compensation or benefits. The number of employees released and/or the amount of release time provided are bargainable. However, the requirement that release time be provided without loss of compensation and benefits constitutes a measurable, non-waivable minimum statutory guarantee. (County of Riverside (2013) PERB Decision No. 2307-M, pp. 29-30.) (p. 8.)
