Explanation
This ordinance authorizes the Director of the Department of Human Resources to enter into contract with the Columbus Area Labor-Management Committee for the provision of training and assistance to promote improved labor-management relations.

The Columbus Area Labor-Management Committee (CALMC) is a not-for-profit organization that promotes the development of high-performance organizations through joint participation of labor and management. Since its founding in 1986, CALMC has worked with many private and public sector companies and organizations and their unions to help them achieve their goals through the active involvement of its members and through effective training, communications, and leadership to benefit the citizens of Central Ohio. City Council has supported CALMC in the past to make strategic investments in projects that will ultimately create and retain jobs within the City.

Through cooperative approaches, employers, employees, and unions work together to resolve workplace issues in a proactive manner, make their operations more productive, and enhance safety. A cooperative atmosphere helps workplaces remain competitive, improve opportunities for employment and allow for wage and benefit increases.

In addition, CALMC assists employers and employees work together in areas such as problem solving, teambuilding, and leadership which increases employees' skill levels so they will be more employable, have a voice in workplace operations and enhance the leadership abilities of both current leaders and future leaders.

Fiscal Impact: Funding is available for use in the Job Growth subfund.
