(b) The employer's budget and the size of the employer's workforce, including determining the financial basis for layoffs;
(c) The right to direct and supervise employees;
(d) The hours of work during legislative session and the cutoff calendar for a legislative session; and
(e) Retirement plans and retirement benefits.
(2) Except for an applicable code of conduct policy adopted by a chamber of the legislature or a legislative agency, if a conflict exists between policies adopted by the legislature relating to wages, hours, and terms and conditions of employment and a provision of a collective bargaining agreement negotiated under this chapter, the collective bargaining agreement shall prevail.
