Home > Labour Management Committees

Identify emerging issues and improve communication. Support collaboration between unions and employers. Stand up for allied health.

Labour Management Committees (previously called Employee Management Advisory Committees or EMACs) exist throughout MAHCP member-employing organizations and worksites across Manitoba. The committees provide opportunities for MAHCP members at the frontlines to build leadership skills while aiming to enhance the work environment for allied health-care professionals.

Committee goals are to:

  • provide an open and transparent forum to discuss workplace issues among managers, workers and union representatives
  • promote collaboration between MAHCP members, Labour Relations Officers, and employers’ Human Resources staff and managers
  • build relationships and improve collaboration
  • help MAHCP uncover or anticipate workplace concerns which may become bigger problems or require our attention.

Learn more about Labour Management Committee criteria, terms and member responsibilities in the FAQ below, then submit an Expression of Interest form to volunteer.

Interested in advocating for allied health?

Consider volunteering for your MAHCP Labour Management Committee.

If your facility’s/site’s committee requires new or additional members, your MAHCP Labour Relations Officer may contact you to discuss the role (typically require a two-year commitment). If we receive more volunteers than we need to fill committee positions, we can organize an electronic vote for your worksite to determine representation democratically.

Our office will be closed on Friday, April 18 (Good Friday) and Monday, April 21 (Easter Monday).
