Labor–Management Partnerships for Public Transportation Volume 1: Toolkit

Overview

TRB's Transit Cooperative Research Program (TCRP) Report 181: Labor–Management Partnerships for Public Transportation Volume 1: Toolkit provides resources for public transportation management and labor union leaders to establish, manage, and improve labor–management partnerships. The first volume describes:

• The development of a labor–management partnership charter to start or improve a partnership
• Labor–management partnership guidance that provides specific recommended actions for both management and labor union leaders
• 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.

The forthcoming Volume 2, Final Report, will provide background material that was used to develop the Toolkit.
