SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background

    The GLMRC is a forum for managers and the exclusive national labor 
Union representatives of GSA employees: the American Federation of 
Government Employees (AFGE) and the National Federation of Federal 
Employees (NFFE). In this forum, managers and the Unions discuss 
Government operations to promote satisfactory labor relations and 
improve the productivity and effectiveness of GSA. The GLMRC serves as 
a complement to the existing collective bargaining process and allows 
managers and the Unions to collaborate in continuing to deliver the 
highest quality services to the public. The Council discusses workplace 
challenges and problems and recommends solutions that foster a more 
productive and cost-effective service to the taxpayer, through 
improving job satisfaction and employees' working conditions.

Agenda

    The purpose of the meeting is for the GLMRC to build its 
collaborative labor-management relationship, discuss the Council's 
activities and direction ahead for the year, and to consider Agency 
initiatives. The topics to be discussed include Council metrics, 
employee engagement activities, and human resource initiative updates.
