Page | 4 Role of the Executive Director As Executive Director, my responsibilities include implementing committee recommendations, coordinating workshops and seminars, and preparing proposals in support of our goals. These efforts are guided by a strategic operational plan developed in consultation with experts from: • The Government of the Virgin Islands and its instrumentalities • Labor organizations • The Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service (FMCS) • The American Arbitration Association • Private sector professionals Mission and Activities The VILMC plays an active role in public sector collective bargaining and was established to strengthen Labor-Management relations, improve working conditions, and enhance the quality of work life for employees across the U.S. Virgin Islands. Some of the Committee’s key objectives include: • Developing educational programs that enhance Labor-Management communication • Identifying and resolving issues that affect labor relations • Encouraging collaboration and trust between employees and management Page | 5 Historical Background The Virgin Islands Labor Management Committee (VILMC) is a territory-wide initiative dedicated to strengthening employee involvement in management decision-making, with a focus on improving the overall work environment. The concept of the VILMC was introduced to the Virgin Islands in 1982 by the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service (FMCS), which sought to promote collaboration between labor and management in a non-adversarial setting. At the national level, FMCS actively organized similar committees to strengthen labor-management relations. In 1986, the Virgin Islands formally established the VILMC as a non-profit organization. The term "Labor" encompasses both unionized and non-unionized employees within government agencies. In 2023, the FMCS recognized the VILMC as the longest continuously functioning Labor Management Committee internationally, a significant milestone underscoring the territory’s commitment to cooperative workplace solutions. VILMC programs are designed to equip employees with the skills and tools needed to engage effectively in agency group dynamics. These initiatives are especially vital in organizations where adversarial relationships previously existed, helping to build trust and cooperation between labor and management. At its core, the VILMC values the expertise and experience of employees as essential to solving workplace challenges and enhancing service delivery. Moreover, it champions employee consultation in decision-making processes, ensuring their voices are heard before final decisions are made. Page | 6 VILMC FOCUS The Virgin Islands Labor-Management Committee (VILMC) focuses on fostering engagement between labor and management by developing agency-specific Labor Management Committees. These committees address and recommend solutions to workplace challenges that, while not directly covered under the Collective Bargaining Agreement, have a significant impact on the work environment. We are focusing on employee-retention, organizational culture and collaborative problem-solving. These priorities are in VI, where shifts in government administration, retirements, reassignments, and appointments of new agency leaders continually reshape workplace dynamics. Such transitions highlight the importance of structured, ongoing collaboration between labor-management to maintain stability and trust. To support these efforts, the VILMC offers dispute resolution services including grievance mediation, facilitation, and interest- based problem solving, to help agencies internal challenges before they escalate. The committee also delivers customized training focusing on team building communication, conflict resolution, and leadership development to strengthen agency effectiveness, The VILMC will continue implementing in-house Supervisor, Managers, Employees and Union workshops that encourage open dialogue, shared accountability, and collaborative development of solutions. These sessions build a culture where Labor and Management work together to improve operations, enhance employee morale, and deliver high quality public services. Page | 7 Consistent cooperation between labor and management is a proven driver of organizational efficiency and workplace stability. With the requested budget, the VILMC will expand its capacity to support agencies through structured collaboration, training initiatives proactive disputes resolution ensuring that government operations remain effective, responsive, and resilient.

Page | 10 Statement by Joseph Gumbs On behalf of the VI Labor Management Committee Friday July 24, 2026 Good afternoon, Senate Chair, Honorable Novelle Francis, Jr and esteemed Senators of the 36th Legislature, distinguished testifiers, colleagues, and members of the listening and viewing audience. My name is Joseph Gumbs, and I serve as the Labor Co-Chair of the Virgin Islands Labor Management Committee (VILMC). It is with deep respect and a shared commitment to strengthening Labor-Management relations that I gratefully accept the invitation to testify before your committee today. VILMC Operational Goals and Objectives Goal I: Foster and maintain healthy, fulfilling work environments across government agencies by expanding opportunities for employees to participate meaningfully in decision-making, workplace improvement, and organizational culture initiatives. Goal II: Design and implement training and development programs that strengthen communication, productivity, and continuous learning in Labor-Management relations. These programs will support both labor and management in navigating and evolving workplace expectations. Goal III: Assist agencies in identifying, addressing, and resolving issues that affect organizational effectiveness, employee morale and the overall health of Labor-Management relationships within the workplace. Goal IV: Produce and distribute The Motivator—a monthly newsletter that highlighting best practices in Labor-Management collaboration, showcases agency successes, and promotes ongoing dialogue, transparency and engagement across public sector. Goal V: Implement a VI Youth Outreach through high school workshops focused on work ethics, customer service skills, and an introduction to fundamentals of an Agency Labor Management Committee. These interactive, student-led workshops build essential life skills including Page | 11 communication, self-awareness, respect, compassion, gratitude, integrity, collaboration, courage, resilience and leadership. Objectives and Strategies The Agency Labor Management Committee (ALMC) meetings and workshops are designed to foster collaboration in a non-adversarial environment, ultimately enhancing labor relations across the agency. These forums provide a structured space for problem-solving through the open exchange of information and ideas, helping to define key issues and work toward effective resolutions. They also serve as platforms for: • Developing leadership and communication skills, • Discouraging unproductive behaviors in contract administration, • Promoting constructive conflict management, • Reducing workplace tension among all parties. A. Increasing Utilization of the ALMCs To encourage engagement and strengthen the ALMC framework, VILMC will: 1. Support the organization and sustainability of ALMCs across agencies. 2. Offer orientation sessions and targeted training. 3. Provide issue-specific assistance to address workplace challenges. 4. Circulate The Motivator newsletter to reinforce engagement and communication. 5. Sponsor training programs for both management and non- management employees. 6. Host an annual general meeting for all Agency Labor Management Committees. Expected Outcomes: • Increase in the number of active and functioning ALMCs. • Higher participation from managers, supervisors, employees, and unions. • Greater interest in training related to contract administration and grievance resolution, problem-solving. Page | 12 B. Improving the Nature of Labor-Management Relationships Unresolved issues often signal deeper concerns about communication, leadership, or workplace culture. Labor-management relationships typically fall into one of three categories: 1. Conflict: Management does not recognize or meaningfully engage with union representation. 2. Restraint: Interaction is limited and strained or inconsistent. 3. Accommodation: Both parties engage in productive, solution-focused dialogue. VILMC’s strategic focus is to move toward accommodation, characterized by: • Mutual respect • Open communication • Long-term collaboration • Early intervention and proactive issue resolution Page | 13 For FY 2027, the VILMC anticipates the Following Goals: We will continue to provide effective training programs to build a base of knowledge for management, union, and other interested parties, to provide the skills to deal more effectively and efficiently in resolving grievances with their Agency Labor Management Committees. As such, the following programs are available during FY 2026: o Organizing/Re-organizing Agency Labor-Management Committees, in each Agency; (The Master Collective Bargaining Agreement in the V.I. Government requires that the Agencies organize Agency LMC’s.) o The Administrative Hearing Process o Customer Service in the VI Workplace o Diversity in the VI Workplace o Contract Administration o Grievance Handling o Shop Steward Guide to Grievance Investigation and Preparation o Interest Based Problem Solving o How to deal with difficult People o Grievance Committee o Interpersonal Communication o Dealing Effectively with Unacceptable Behavior in the Workplace o Just Cause for Discipline o Discipline o Employee Discipline & Grievances o Progressive Discipline o Improving LMC’s Relationships o Managers and Supervisors Labor Relationships in the workplace o Employee/ Supervisors Relationship o Supervisor/Steward Relationship o Managing Conflict for Supervisor Page | 14 o Other specialized training, as deemed appropriate and by request.

Most meetings are conducted after 5:00p.m. Page | 22 ORGANIZATION OF AGENCY LABOR MANAGEMENT COMMITTEES Under the Master Collective Bargaining Agreement with the Virgin Islands Government, each Agency is required to establish an Agency Labor Management Committee (ALMC). The Virgin Islands Labor Management Committee (VILMC) provides guidance and support to assist Agencies in forming and maintaining their respective ALMCs. Each ALMC must consist of an agreed-upon, equal number of representatives from both management and employees. These committees meet periodically to identify and address workplace issues not typically covered by the Collective Bargaining Agreement. When utilized effectively, ALMCs serve as a powerful tool for fostering collaboration and improving workplace conditions. Topics an ALMC May Address Include: - Safety and health issues; - Elimination of excessive waste; - Morale of the workers - Working conditions; - Productivity; - Causes of grievance; - Training; - Absenteeism and tardiness - Improving and utilizing skills; - Policies; Rules and Regulations; - Supervisors/Worker Relationship - Job Satisfaction. - Employee’s suggestions Page | 23 Purpose of Agency Labor Management Committees (ALMCs) Agency Labor Management Committees A(LMCs) provide a structured forum for addressing workplace issues that fall outside the scope of the Labor Agreement. These issues may include: • Safety and health • Working conditions • Absenteeism and tardiness • Rules and regulations • Employee morale Workplace relationships—between employees and supervisors, and among peers—can often give rise to conflict. In many cases, communication serves as both the root cause and the potential solution. Ineffective conflict resolution approaches must be replaced with healthy dialogue and interpersonal skills. Communication and conflict resolution are teachable and essential tools— sometimes, all that's needed is to show employees how to engage respectfully and constructively. Workshops Offered by VILMC To support positive workplace transformation, the Virgin Islands Labor Management Committee (VILMC) offers targeted workshops on: o Organizing/Re-organizing Agency Labor-Management Committees, in each Agency; (The Master Collective Bargaining Agreement in the V.I.
