Approve alternative dispute resolution process for police officer injury claims

Police & Community SafetyPersonnel

In Plain English

The city and police union currently handle worker injury disputes through formal legal proceedings. This agreement creates a faster, less expensive process to resolve disagreements about medical treatment and benefits when officers get hurt on the job. If approved, both sides use mediation before going to court.
