Everything you need to know about today’s rapidly changing labor-management environment!
Changing times are challenging to both labor and
management. This year’s FMCS National Labor-Management Conference will feature a plethora of workshops,
panels, and plenary sessions focusing on new rules of the road for labor
relations practitioners and new workplace challenges. Practitioners, parties, and experts will share
their insights, as well as practical tools and techniques.
Questions

about building a solid partnership with the people across the table? Questions about how to keep the process
straight and legal in labor arbitration? Join us at the FMCS 2018 National Labor-Management Conference for answers on these topics and many more!
 Collaborating for Wellness Improvements and Health Care Savings: How do
you keep health care costs to a minimum and not cut benefits?
Hear from the
City of Chicago Labor Management Cooperation Committee (LMCC), consisting of
representatives from the City of Chicago and about 20 unions with City labor
contracts. The Chicago LMCC oversees health care coverage for approximately
35,000 union and non-union employees in a health plan that covers a total of
56,000 lives. Despite a change in City
administrations and a challenging budget situation, the Committee has made
major strides toward accomplishing its stated goals of holding the line on
health care costs, maintaining a comprehensive health plan, and promoting
wellness. Working collaboratively, the Committee has kept premium increases
below 8 percent and have even added and improved benefits.
