Labor Relations Legislative Update: What Your Agency Needs to Know about AB 339 and New Contracting Obligations
In this training, we discuss Assembly Bill (“AB”) 339, which went into effect January 1, 2026, imposes new notice requirements on public agencies related to contracting decisions that concern matters within the scope of representation.
The new law amends the Meyers-Milias-Brown Act (“MMBA”) by adding section 3504.1 to the Government Code and requires public agencies to provide at least 45 days’ written notice to employee organizations before issuing a request for proposal (“RFP”), request for quote, or renewing or extending certain contracts to perform services that are within the scope of work of the job classifications represented by the employee organization. AB 339 imposes specific requirements regarding the content of the notice to employee organizations concerning contract solicitations covered by the statute, while exempting certain contracts from the notice requirements.
In this training, we will discuss current public agency obligations related to contracting under the MMBA and provide recommendations as to how public agencies should modify existing policies and practices to comply with the new legal obligations under AB 339.
