CONSULTATION PROCESSES. The parties agree that they will consult each other about matters involving changes to the organisation or performance of work in the workplace covered by the Agreement. Such consultation will include matters relating to: structural efficiency; training; termination; change and redundancy. In addition the parties may develop further consultative arrangements as required from time to time.
CONSULTATION PROCESSES. Emergent Circumstances
CONSULTATION PROCESSES. General Where Queensland Health seeks to contract out or lease current services, the union will be consulted as early as possible. Discussions will take place before any steps are taken to call tenders or enter into any otherwise binding legal arrangement for the provision of services by an external provider. For the purpose of consultation the union will be given relevant documents. Queensland Health will ensure that the union is aware of any proposals to contract out or lease current services. It is the responsibility of the union to participate fully in discussions on any proposals to contract out or lease current services. If, after full consultation as outlined above, nurses and midwives are affected by the necessity to contract out or lease current services, Queensland Health will: negotiate with the union employment arrangements to assist nurses and midwives to move to employment with the contractor; ensure that nurses and midwives are given the option to take up employment with the contractor; ensure that nurses and midwives are given the option to accept deployment/redeployment with Queensland Health; and ensure that as a last resort, nurses and midwives are given the option of accepting voluntary early retirement.
CONSULTATION PROCESSES. The parties are committed to utilising consultative processes throughout the organisation and to this end we will continue the current practice which created an atmosphere of mutual trust and cooperation. Management will continue to communicate and consult with employees of the Authority.
CONSULTATION PROCESSES. The programme builds on and serves to strengthen existing institutions and inter- ministerial coordination mechanisms. Consultations during the concept preparatory phase involved relevant national agencies and organizations represented on the NCCCT, among others. These included: ▪ National Environment Service; ▪ Office of the Prime Minister, Central Policy and Planning Division; ▪ Ministry of Infrastructure and Planning, including Water Supply and Energy Divisions; ▪ Cook Islands Meteorological Service; ▪ Ministry of Agriculture; ▪ Ministry of Health; ▪ Ministry of Education; ▪ Ministry of Marine Resources; ▪ Ministry of Foreign Affairs; ▪ Ministry of Internal Affairs ▪ Ministry of Finance and Economic Management, including Aid & Statistics Divisions; ▪ Emergency Management Unit; ▪ Traditional Leaders (Koutu Nui & House of Ariki); ▪ Civil society organisations including Red Cross, Environmental NGOs, Climate Action Network, & Tourism Industry and Chamber of Commerce representatives; and ▪ Island Councils and Administrations. Many of the above are mandated to represent the interests and concerns of vulnerable community groups targeted in SRIC and were therefore directly involved in the consultations for the proposal formulation. These include the Traditional Leaders (Koutu Nui & House of Ariki), members of Island Councils and Island Administrations, and members of civil society organisations, notably the Red Cross, environmental NGOs, and Climate Action Network. Tourism industry and Chamber of Commerce representatives are also critical to reducing the vulnerability of community members through private sector initiatives that provide economic opportunities for vulnerable individuals and community groups. Individuals and organisations that were consulted during preparation of the full proposal are listed in Annex 6. Additional consultations were conducted during the National Adaptation Planning Week that was held in late February, 2011. The Adaptation Planning Week included a full day workshop on preparation of the current proposal. The agenda for this workshop and the list participants in the Adaptation Planning Week are also provided in Annex 6. The National Adaptation Planning Week provided an excellent opportunity for the active participation of representatives of those organisations mandated to represent the interests and concerns of vulnerable community groups targeted in SRIC. Once again these included the Traditional Leaders, members of Island Council...
CONSULTATION PROCESSES. Emergent Circumstances The employer can contract out or lease current services without reference to the BEMS SBU in cases where any delay would cause immediate risks to patients and/or detriment to the delivery of public health services to the Queensland public. In all cases information must be provided to the next BEMS SBU for review in relation to these cases and to assist in determining strategies to resolve any issues that arise. These circumstances would include: in the event of critical shortages of skilled staff; or extraordinary or unforeseen circumstances.
CONSULTATION PROCESSES. 7.1 Consultation regarding major workplace change
CONSULTATION PROCESSES. The University is committed to open discussion and direct consultation with employees and the Unions about workplace issues that have significant consequences to them, including change management, human resource policies and their implementation. Such issues will be discussed in a spirit of cooperation and trust to ensure that employees and the Unions have an opportunity to raise workplace issues, to receive sufficient information on issues that affect them, to have an opportunity to contribute their views on those issues and to have meaningful involvement in decision making. The University uses a variety of mechanisms to communicate and consult with employees and the Unions on workplaces issues as detailed above, such as those listed below. The most appropriate mechanism(s) will be influenced by the nature and scale of the proposed changes. Key mechanisms for communication and consultation include, but are not limited to: • School/Division/Directorate and/or organisational work group meetings • the Intranet/website for direct employee feedback, with five working days for consultation • a Staff Consultative Forum which is open to all employees • a Joint Consultative Committee (JCC). An employee or the Union(s) may raise workplace issues directly with management at any time.
