Process and Structure of LMP. A. The parties will maintain a Senior Partnership Committee (SPC) Teamster Partnership Committee (TPC) consisting of an equal number of (but not less than five (5) each) Red Cross executive level staff who have decision making capability and IBT and Union Coalition leadership. Red Cross’ Biomedical President, COO and Vice-President of Collections will be members of the SPC. The IBT will appoint up to five (5) Divisional Representatives and the parties shall designate their respective co- chairs. The SPC TPC will meet as often as necessary, at least once per quarter, to discuss strategic issues of the Partnership and implement, review and oversee initiatives at all levels. The powers of the SPC TPC do not supersede the legally mandated obligations of the parties such as the duty to bargain over mandatory subjects, the duty of the unions of the Coalition IBT to represent the interests of their members as well as Red Cross’ management rights. In that regard, the parties recognize that the SPC TPC and the partnership process is not a forum to negotiate mandatory subjects of bargaining or make changes to the collective bargaining agreement.
