The FLRA Announces Focus Groups As Part of Review and Revision of Its Arbitration Regulations

The FLRA announced today that it will be conducting three focus groups in Washington, D.C. in February to seek the input of Federal agency and union practitioners who participate in the grievance arbitration process, as well as arbitrators who conduct hearings and issue awards resolving grievances in the Federal sector.  The FLRA also invites members of the Federal labor-management community during the month of February, to provide ideas and views on the grievance arbitration process, the FLRA’s procedures, regulations and decisions, and suggestions for training by sending an email to the FLRA’s “Engage the FLRA” email address at engagetheflra@flra.gov.

Information about participating in the focus groups can be found in the FLRA's announcement.
