TOLL HWY AUTH-BILINGUAL PAY

Chamber Passed·4/9/26

Illinois HB5071 allows the Illinois State Toll Highway Authority to offer bilingual pay supplements for employees who speak or write a language other.

HB5071 amends the Toll Highway Act to grant the Illinois State Toll Highway Authority the power to establish a special pay supplement for positions requiring language skills other than English. This bilingual pay supplement aims to attract bilingual individuals, encourage current employees to become proficient in other languages, and retain qualified bilingual employees. The supplement amount will be negotiated between the Authority and the appropriate collective bargaining representative.
