Lautoka City Council’s Managers and Supervisors Attend LMCCC Training

Lautoka, Fiji – The Lautoka City Council’s managers and supervisors attended the Labour Management Consultation and Cooperation Committee (LMCCC) training today in the LCC Chamber. The training was conducted by Mr. Jitendra Naidu, Manager Productivity and Training from the Ministry of Employment, Productivity and Industrial Relations.

The LMCCC is a bipartite forum established under the Employment Relations Act 2007 that aims to promote and realize ‘good faith’ employment relationships, and to promote and improve productivity levels in workplaces.

The LMCCC training highlighted the benefits of establishing a Labour Management Committee in the workplace. The committee provides a platform for communication based on good labour-management relationships, where workplace issues such as productivity improvement, social and recreational activities, and staff development can be resolved through open forums. Additionally, the committee consults on issues such as safety and health, operational procedures, and other relevant matters.

The LMCCC training emphasized that establishing an active committee is crucial in ensuring that grievances in the workplace are addressed amicably through a win-win situation based on good faith relations. This ensures the resolution of workplace grievances in an un-confrontational manner.

The Lautoka City Council’s managers and supervisors left the training with a better understanding of the benefits of the LMCCC and how it can be utilized in their workplace. They expressed enthusiasm in implementing the strategies learned in the training to improve productivity and workplace relationships.

Overall, the LMCCC training was a success in educating attendees on the benefits of establishing a Labour Management Committee and promoting good labour-management relationships in the workplace.
