Joint Staff Employer Forum

The Joint Staff Employer Forum is a group where trade union/staff and employer representatives can discuss issues referred from departmental consultative forums, plus give feedback on existing policies and procedures. National issues such as pay and pensions, general 'industrial relations', welfare, health and safety, equalities can also be discussed.

The Forum includes Councillors, Officers and Trade Union representatives. 

With effect from 7th April 2011 the forum operates as a closed working party so is not open to the public.

Members of City Council staff who are not part of the Forum will be allowed to attend its meetings at the discretion of the Chair, but will be asked to leave when the panel debates confidential or exempt information in closed session.
