In accordance with the terms of the Labor-Management Cooperation Act of 1978, FMCS considers applications from plant, geographic or area-wide committees.
During the 2016 grant cycle, we especially encourage applications from area-wide, industry or sectoral joint labor-management committees focused
on the 21st century economy and the challenges of a rapidly evolving workplace, such as:
job security and skills; working conditions for an increasingly mobile workforce; consensus solutions to workplace standards; organizational effectiveness; economic development and competitiveness for entire communities; hiring and retaining the next generations of workers.
