Alaska Statutes.

Title 39. Public Officers and Employees

Chapter 20. Compensation, Allowances, and Leave

Section 530. Application to Other Laws.

AS 39.20.530. Application to Other Laws.

(a) The provisions of AS 39.20.500 - 39.20.550 do not affect any other provision of law relating to sex discrimination, pregnancy, or parenthood.

(b) The provisions of AS 39.20.500 - 39.20.550 are subject to collective bargaining. However, except as provided in (c) of this section, a collective bargaining contract that does not contain benefit provisions at least as beneficial to the employee as those provided by AS 39.20.500 - 39.20.550 shall be considered to contain the benefit provisions of those statutes.

(c) The commissioner of education and early development may approve a collective bargaining agreement entered into between a school district or a regional educational attendance area and a bargaining organization representing certificated employees that does not meet the leave requirements of AS 39.20.500 - 39.20.550, if the district or attendance area establishes to the satisfaction of the commissioner that a variance from the requirements of AS 39.20.500 - 39.20.550 is necessary to avoid a hardship on the school district based on the lack of qualified, available substitute teachers to replace teachers on leave under AS 39.20.500 - 39.20.550 or the lack of available housing for replacement teachers who do not live in the community.
