32:23-87. Regularization of longshoremen's employment
Notwithstanding any other provisions of article IX of this act, the commission shall have the power to remove from the longshoremen's register any person (including those persons registered as longshoremen for less than 9 months) who shall have failed to have worked as a longshoreman in the Port of New York District for such minimum number of days during a period of time as shall have been established by the commission. In administering this section, the commission, in its discretion, may count applications for employment as a longshoreman at an employment information center established under article XII as constituting actual work as a longshoreman, provided, however, that the commission shall count as actual work the compensation received by any longshoreman pursuant to the guaranteed wage provisions of any collective bargaining agreement relating to longshoremen. Prior to the commencement of any period of time established by the commission pursuant to this section, the commission shall establish for such period the minimum number of days of work required and the distribution of such days during such period and shall also determine whether or not application for employment as a longshoreman shall be counted as constituting actual work as a longshoreman. The commission may classify longshoremen according to length of service as a longshoreman and such other criteria as may be reasonable and necessary to carry out the provisions of this act. The commission shall have the power to vary the requirements of this section with respect to their application to the various classifications of longshoremen. In administering this section the commission shall observe the standards set forth in section 5-p of this act. Nothing in this section shall be construed to modify, limit or restrict in any way any of the rights protected by article 15 of this act.
