22-6-2-7. Boards of Arbitration; Appointment; Compensation and Expenses

Sec. 7. If the conciliator so named is unable to effect a settlement of such dispute within a thirty (30) day period after his appointment, he shall report such fact to the governor, and the governor, if he believes that a continuation of the dispute will cause or is likely to cause the interruption of the supply of a service on which the community so affected is so dependent that severe hardship would be inflicted on a substantial number of persons by a cessation of such service, shall appoint a board of arbitration to hear and determine such dispute. The board of arbitration shall consist of three (3) members chosen by the governor from the board of arbitrators panel provided for in section 4 of this chapter. A new board shall be chosen by the governor for each separate dispute, but the same board may hear any number of issues or grievances which are involved at the same time in any dispute between the same employer and his employees. Members of such board of arbitration shall be allowed reasonable compensation for their services and for their necessary expenses in an amount to be fixed by the governor, and such compensation and expenses shall be shared equally by the parties to the dispute.
