Joint Loss Management Committee

Every employee of the Town of Bristol has the right to a workplace free from safety and health hazards (Lab 1403.01). A "Joint Loss Management" program is designed to prevent incidents and illnesses; and is established jointly between the employees and the management of the Town. Unsafe acts, unsafe conditions and incidents all demonstrate a need for improvement in the management system. This program provides the framework and structure for safety concerns to be managed like any other function of government through planning, organization, leadership, control and communication. It is an established fact that a well-trained, well-disciplined and well-supervised employee operating in a safe and healthful environment is less likely to have an incident. 

The Join Loss Management Committee (JLMC) will consist of equal numbers of representatives from Labor and Management. At a minimum, the committee will include a representative from Town Office employees, Police Department, Fire Department, Water/Sewer Department and Highway Department.
