§ 534-p. Implementation of telecommunications hiring system for

longshore workers and checkers; registration of telecommunications

system controller. 1. The commission may designate one of the employment

information centers it is authorized to establish and maintain under

section five hundred thirty-four-o of this article for the

implementation of a telecommunications hiring system through which

longshore workers and checkers may be hired and accept employment

without any personal appearance at said center. Any such

telecommunications hiring system shall incorporate hiring and seniority

agreements between the employers of longshore workers and checkers and

the labor organization representing longshore workers and checkers in

the port of New York district in this state, provided said agreements

are not in conflict with the provisions of the article.

2. The commission shall permit employees of the association

representing employers of longshore workers and checkers and of the

labor organization representing longshore workers and checkers in the

port of New York district in this state, or of a joint board of such

association and labor organization, to participate in the operation of

said telecommunications hiring system, provided that any such employee

is registered by the commission as a "telecommunications system

controller" in accordance with the provisions, standards and grounds set

forth in the act with respect to the registration of checkers. No person

shall act as a "telecommunications system controller" unless that person

is so registered. Any application for such registration and any

registration made or issued may be denied, revoked, or suspended, as the

case may be, only in the manner prescribed in section five hundred

thirty-four-n of this article. Any and all such participation in the

operation of said telecommunications hiring system shall be monitored by

the commission.

3. Any and all records, documents, tapes, discs and other data

compiled, collected or maintained by said association of employers,

labor organization and joint board of such association and labor

organization pertaining to the telecommunications hiring system shall be

available for inspection, investigation and duplication by the

commission.
