Each union group will <br /> have up to four(4)representatives on the GHCC. The GHCC will not have authority to bargain <br /> changes to contract terms,but will serve as a labor-management interface to better inform <br /> employees of possible changes to the city's group health benefits considered by the city, and to <br /> better inform the city about the experiences and preferences of employees as it concerns group <br /> 26 <br />
