Partnership Councils Sample Clauses

Partnership Councils. Section 1. The vision of partnership is to improve workforce relationships in order to make the installation a better place to work, live and train. The elements of this vision include supporting the USMA mission, providing a quality workplace and becoming a center of excellence for customer support. Section 2. The goal of each Partnership Council is to attempt to achieve a consensus, where all the participants support the final decision, even though it may not be each person’s preference for a workable solution.

The shared goal of labor and management is that the participants to each Tier II Partnership Council be limited to personnel from within the organization represented by that council. Section 4. Tier II Partnership Councils will meet periodically, but not less than quarterly. All partnership council members will work to achieve value-added benefits of such meetings, which offset the time taken from other responsibilities. Partnership councils are not designed to replace day-to-day communications between employees and supervisors. Partnership councils will meet to work on those issues necessary to create a positive and productive work environment. Each partnership council participant has ...
