This bill establishes new regulations regarding public employees in Oklahoma, specifically prohibiting them from engaging in strikes or organized work stoppages against the state, political subdivisions, or public school districts. It defines "organized work stoppage" and "public employee," and outlines severe penalties for violations, including automatic forfeiture of employment, civil service rights, pensions, and teaching certificates for educators. Additionally, the bill affirms that individuals retain the right to cease work as long as they are not participating in a collective action.

The bill also amends existing law related to strikes against boards of education, making it illegal for organizations to strike or threaten to strike as a means of resolving disputes. It removes the provision that allowed organizations to deny wages during a strike and instead subjects violators to the penalties outlined in the new section. The act is set to take effect on November 1, 2025.
