     7  shall  detail  the  feasibility  of programs permitting alternative work
     8  schedules and flexible work hours within state agencies, and shall pres-
     9  ent an analysis of how programs for alternative work schedules and flex-

    12  porated into such programs and the advantages and disadvantages of  such
    13  programs. However, no plan regarding alternative work schedules or flex-
    14  ible  work hours shall be implemented and cannot be enforced with regard

    16  is implemented through a collective bargaining agreement. The  president
    17  shall  compile  input from each agency relating to such alternative work
    18  schedules and flexible work hours and consider how to the extent  possi-
    19  ble  the  specific agencies may be more or less able to accommodate such
    20  programs.
    21    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
