Dependent Care Task Force Clause Samples
The Dependent Care Task Force clause establishes a dedicated group responsible for addressing issues related to dependent care within an organization. This task force typically consists of representatives from management and employees who collaborate to assess current dependent care needs, recommend improvements, and oversee the implementation of related programs or policies. By formalizing the creation and operation of such a task force, the clause ensures ongoing attention to dependent care concerns, promoting a supportive work environment and helping to resolve challenges faced by employees with caregiving responsibilities.
Dependent Care Task Force. The City and the Coalition of City Unions recognize a common interest in supporting employees by increasing access to safe, affordable, and quality dependent care services. To meet this interest, the Parties will convene a joint Task Force to study options for a possible child and dependent care benefit program, including the possibility of a multi- employer dependent care voucher program. The joint Task Force shall be made up of equal numbers of labor representatives and representatives of the City. The Task Force assessment should include an analysis of the need for dependent care by City employees, affordability, quality, location of child and adult care providers, and the administrative infrastructure needed to oversee the program. The assessment should also include an analysis of the costs and benefits of a dependent care benefit program and possible revenue sources such as the potential excess Health Insurance Rate Stabilization Fund. By mutual agreement, the Task Force may consult with outside experts to help with the assessment. The Task Force shall provide a written report, with its analysis and recommendations, no later than end of year 2024.
