Each member of the board shall have been an elector in this state for at least one year next preceding his appointment. Any member may be removed by the Governor for cause shown in a public hearing after the accused has been given a copy of the charges made and has had an opportunity to answer such charges. The Governor shall fill any vacancy by appointment for the unexpired term. No member shall receive a salary but each member shall be paid one hundred fifty dollars in lieu of expenses for each day during which he is engaged in the duties of the board. The offices of the board shall be in the department at Wethersfield. The board is authorized to hold hearings at any place in this state. Subject to the provisions of chapter 67, the board shall appoint such employees, including an assistant to the agent, for such periods as may be necessary to carry out the work of the board and the provisions of this chapter without undue delay. All files, records and documents accumulated by the board shall be kept in offices provided by the department. All decisions shall be made by a majority of the board and a copy shall be filed with the commissioner. As provided in section 4-60 and more frequently if required by the governor, the board shall make a written report to the Governor, a copy of which shall be filed with the commissioner.(b) Whenever conditions warrant, the Labor Commissioner or the chairman of the board shall request the Governor to appoint, and the Governor shall have authority to appoint, alternate members of said board in such numbers and for such periods of time as the Governor may determine to be necessary, in order that said board may render efficient service in performing the duties committed to it by statute. Any such alternate member shall serve in accordance with the provisions of section 4-1a. Any such alternate member shall meet the same qualifications and receive the same compensation as regular members of the board. An alternate member shall serve in place of an absent member of the board at any time when so directed by the board and while so serving shall have all the powers of members of the board. Alternate members so appointed may complete any matter pending at the expiration of the term for which they were appointed.Conn. Gen. Stat. § 31-102
