The California Public Employee Relations Program (CPER) began in 1969 in response to requests from management and labor representatives for assistance in dealing with the special problems involved in public sector employment relations.
CPER has adapted as public sector bargaining has evolved. It serves the changing needs of those who participate in the bargaining process and those engaged in public policymaking. Today, CPER publishes and sells a series of Pocket Guides to the laws impacting public sector employee relations. Explore our current guides below.
CPER Updates: As of 2020, CPER ceased production of new editions of our pocket guides.
