S 4039 United States Senate · 118th Congress

Federal Labor-Management Partnership Act of 2024

This bill establishes the Federal Labor-Management Partnership Council under Title 5 of the U.S. Code to advise the President on labor-management relations across the federal government. The Council, composed of agency leaders, labor representatives, and management officials, must support local partnerships, share best practices, and gather input from agencies and external experts. It requires all federal agencies (and three specific legislative branch entities: the Capitol Police, GAO, and Architect of the Capitol) to create labor-management committees that involve employees early in workplace decisions, provide dispute-resolution training, and evaluate performance improvements. Key provisions mandate pre-decisional employee input on workplace matters - regardless of bargaining status - and require agencies to resolve changes through these committees. The law aims to formalize collaborative structures to improve federal workforce operations and public service delivery.
