The Career Service Advisory Council is a group of employees elected by their peers, acting in an advisory capacity, providing a communications link between career service employees and the president and administration. Each state institution under the auspices of the Board of Regents has a CSAC.
The council discusses and make recommendations to the president on the conditions of employment, fringe benefits and other policies; discusses issues and offers the administration the opportunity to explain rules that impact career service employees.
The council does not have bargaining power, but they do have the power to assist employees in finding solutions to individual problems by directing staff to the proper channels. If the problems are of vital concern to all Career Service staff, more direct methods may be initiated to solve the problem.
The council represents 640 employees in six categories: administrative and clerical, agriculture services, custodial services, maintenance and security, medical and technical services, and nutrition/4-H services. Each category has relative representation on the CSAC.
In addition to fostering communications, the CSAC hosts bi-annual meetings for all Career Service employees, presents the Employee of the Month awards, serves on the University Cabinet and Public Relations Liaison Committees, and coordinates other employee activities throughout the year.
The council holds monthly meetings, which are open to all employees.
