NTI Webinar: TCRP Report 181: Labor-Management Partnerships for Public Transportation
TRB cosponsored a webinar on Thursday, May 5, 2016 from 2:00-3:30PM ET that featured the Transit Cooperative Research Program (TCRP)
Report 181: Labor-Management Partnerships for Public Transportation. The report aims to provide public transportation managers and labor union leaders with methods to use to establish, manage, and improve labor–management partnerships. Participants should
register in advance. The
National Transit Institute (NTI) is sponsoring this webinar, and there is no fee to register for this event.
The webinar discussed resources and best practices for:
- The development of a labor–management partnership charter to start or improve a partnership
- Labor–management partnership guidance that provides suggested actions and practices for management and labor union leaders, respectively
- A labor–management partnership workshop framework that can be used to develop a cooperative workshop that prepares management and union representatives with essential skills for establishing and managing labor–management partnerships
While the research and toolkit are targeted particularly to bus and rail transit systems with more than 100 employees who are represented by one or more labor unions, there are lessons for systems with all forms of employee relations and of all sizes.
