OFFICE OF WORKER AND COMMUNITY TRANSITION

PROGRAM UPDATE

March - April 1996


WORKER AND COMMUNITY TRANSITION WORKSHOP

On March 13-15, 1996, the Office of Worker and Community Transition held its fourth National Stakeholders' Workshop at the Radisson Hotel Atlanta in Atlanta, Georgia. The Workshop was attended by over 230 representatives from communities, labor organizations, state and local governments, industry, stakeholder organizations, and DOE organizations. The purpose of the Workshop was to discuss the current policies and practices of the Worker and Community Transition program and to review the actions and commitments from the September Workshop in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

The format of the Workshop included several plenary sessions and a number of small group discussion sessions. The smaller sessions focused on topics related to work force planning and restructuring, labor relations, community transition activities, and public involvement issues. The Workshop was designed to encourage interactive dialogue among the meeting participants, with each small group discussion being led by an independent facilitator. Each participant had an opportunity to express their concerns, issues, and suggestions for resolving the complex issues we face in an open, two-way exchange of information.

Prior to the Workshop, on March 12 a session was held with DOE officials from field organizations to discuss current issues and challenges. During both activities, all groups worked together on resolving issues that are critical to the future success of worker and community transition activities.

Plenary Sessions

The plenary sessions of the Workshop included presentations on the following topics:

Welcome and Introductions

Bob DeGrasse, Director of the Office of Worker and Community Transition, led the welcome and introductions section of the plenary. His presentation focused on the objectives of the Workshop, the Office's public involvement activities, work force planning activities, DOE's work force restructuring accomplishments, labor relations activities, the process for developing community transition guidance, and the Office's budget.

Opening Remarks Work Force Planning and Restructuring

Ernest Chaput, the Deputy Manager of the Savannah River Operations Office, gave the opening remarks. He summarized the work force restructuring activities at Savannah River, described the lessons learned, and discussed the challenges that all DOE sites face.

Worker Participation in Health and Safety

Tom Grumbly, the Under Secretary of Energy, gave a presentation on the importance of work force planning and restructuring. He emphasized the importance of using work force planning and work force restructuring as tools for moving the Department toward the right mix of skills, experience, and performance. He also noted that while DOE faces many challenges in meeting its budget, in downsizing and in meeting the responsibilities of section 3161 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year (FY) 1993, work force planning must be conducted with a combination of careful analysis and compassion.

Review of Actions and Commitments

Tara O'Toole, the Assistant Secretary of Environment, Safety and Health, presented a discussion on worker participation in health and safety. She explained that DOE has set a goal of maintaining a sound safety culture through work force planning, engagement of workers, and efficient review of work packages. She also described the approach and trials of DOE's Necessary and Sufficient Closure Process.

Small Group Discussion Sessions

The small group discussion sessions provided an opportunity for direct, informal dialogue among workshop participants on a wide range of issues. The first session of the Thursday, March 14 discussion groups included the following topics:

The second session focused on the following topics:

During the small group discussion sessions on Friday, March 15, participants provided the following types of input:

Following the small group discussion sessions, the participants convened in a plenary session to discuss the points raised during the small group sessions. The group as a whole compiled lists of issues to be resolved by the Department.

A Meeting Summary Report from the Workshop will be developed and mailed to all participants in May 1996. For those unable to attend the Workshop but are interested in receiving a copy of the report, please call Laurel Smith at 202-586-4091.

WORK FORCE RESTRUCTURING PLANS

SAVANNAH RIVER SITE DRAFT FY 1996 AMENDMENT TO THE FY 1995 WORKER TRANSITION AND COMMUNITY ASSISTANCE PLAN APPROVED FOR CIRCULATION FOR STAKEHOLDER COMMENT

On March 22, 1996, the Department of Energy approved the circulation of the draft Savannah River Site FY 1996 Amendment to the FY 1995 Worker Transition and Community Assistance Plan for stakeholder review and comment. The draft amendment is intended to cover work force reductions totaling approximately 1,130 positions anticipated for the remainder of Fiscal Year 1996 and announced on March 19, 1996.

Following consideration of stakeholder comments, the Office of Worker and Community Transition will coordinate consideration of reduction programs and other changes from the FY 1995 Worker Transition and Community Assistance Plan, including any programs for voluntary separation. Separate approval will also be required for any involuntary separations that may be conducted as a result of this restructuring.

EXTENSION OF DISPLACED WORKER MEDICAL BENEFITS APPROVED FOR FORMER EMPLOYEES SEPARATED FROM LOS ALAMOS NATIONAL LABORATORY

On March 29, 1996, the Department of Energy approved extension of Displaced Worker Medical Benefits to former employees of Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) who voluntarily or involuntarily separated from service under the Fiscal Year 95-96 Work Force Restructuring Plan, as well as employees separated under the restructuring plan covering cafeteria workers.

The Department will continue to work with the Laboratory on specific implementation procedures. Accordingly, the Office of Worker and Community Transition, in concert with the Laboratory, will be collecting and analyzing information concerning health care costs incurred by eligible former employees to assist us in evaluating the potential need to apply the benefit beyond the 3 year period.

PINELLAS PLANT WORK FORCE RESTRUCTURING PLAN AMENDED

On April 15, 1996, the Department of Energy approved an amendment in the applicability of relocation assistance under the FY 1994 Pinellas Work Force Restructuring Plan. The current Plan provides up to $5,000 in relocation assistance for employees securing employment at other DOE sites, if such assistance is not provided by the new employer. The amendment extends this benefit to employees who voluntarily separate to accept employment outside the DOE complex if they are determined to be ineligible for relocation benefits from the new employer.

The justification for this change is that it will provide an incentive to employees to accept new employment, rather than wait for formal separation under the site closure schedule, and as a result, avoid substantial notice pay, medical and training costs. The site estimates that this benefit can result in a potential cost savings of $725,000. The site will retain the right to deny benefits if it is determined that there is a continuing requirement for the unique skills of the employee.

Based on the work force analysis, the site has identified up to approximately 375 positions that are excess to future requirements. The Office of Worker and Community Transition intends to approve a request from the site to re-open the voluntary separation program provided in FY 1995 concurrent with approval of this Plan. The site will reassess what additional work force restructuring, if any, may be required in 1997 based on the level of participation in the voluntary program.

WORK FORCE RESTRUCTURING ANNOUNCEMENTS

WORK FORCE RESTRUCTURING AT ROCKY FLATS ANNOUNCED

On March 18, 1996, the Department of Energy announced work force restructuring plans during FY 1996 affecting up to approximately 500 additional prime contractor positions at Rocky Flats in Golden, Colorado. The Department announced an anticipated reduction of 2,400 at the site during FY 95-96 in February 1995. To date, 1,950 positions have been eliminated at Rocky Flats, leaving a total of 950 reductions for the remainder of the fiscal year. A voluntary separation incentive program was also opened at the site to limit any involuntary separations that may be required to meet this restructuring requirement.

WORK FORCE REDUCTIONS ANNOUNCED AT THE PINELLAS PLANT

On April 15, 1996, the Department of Energy announced an update of expected work force restructuring at the Pinellas Plant in Florida during FY 1996. On May 30, 1995, the Department announced that it would continue its work force restructuring at the Pinellas Plant with reductions of up to 250 positions in FY 1996. This was based on the continuing objective to shut down DOE operations at the site and transition to private business enterprises by the end of FY 1997.

To date, during FY 1996, approximately 40 workers have been separated at the site. Economic development and new business revenues have allowed for the retention of 60 to 80 Lockheed Martin Speciality Components workers who would otherwise have had to be separated. However, a number of initiatives that was hoped would increase this figure have not been successful, resulting in the need to curtail some new business programs. As a result, the site anticipates the necessity to involuntarily separate between approximately 40 to 60 workers, who were provided notice during the month of April.

The site anticipates no other significant restructuring during the remainder of FY 1996, beyond normal attrition averaging about six employees a month. This will result in total separations during FY 1996 of 120-140 employees compared to the original estimate of 250.

VOLUNTARY SEPARATION APPROVALS

ROCKY FLATS VOLUNTARY SEPARATION INCENTIVE PROGRAM APPROVED

On April 18, 1996, the Rocky Flats Field Office opened the window to participate in the voluntary separation incentive program offered during 1995. The voluntary separation incentive program provides enhanced severance and medical, educational, relocation and outplacement assistance to eligible employees. The average estimated per capita cost of the program is $28,000. An assessment of the need for involuntary separations as part of the anticipated reduction of 950 positions announced earlier this year will be made at the conclusion of the voluntary program participation window in June.

INVOLUNTARY SEPARATION ANNOUNCEMENTS

INVOLUNTARY SEPARATIONS ANNOUNCED AT HANFORD

On April 11, 1996, the Department of Energy announced that 60-day notices of involuntary separation will be issued to up to approximately 200 employees of Westinghouse Hanford Company and its integrated subcontractors at the Hanford Site in Washington State. These notices are provided in conformance with the requirements of the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act (WARN).

These notices complete actions on the estimated reduction of 4,774 positions announced on February 9, 1995. These reductions are part of overhead cost savings the Department committed to as part of the Management and Efficiency Initiative of the Tri-Party agreement. The site recently completed a second opportunity for employees to participate in a voluntary separation incentive program. A total of 255 workers were accepted for this program based on an analysis of their skills and future work force requirements at the site. Overall, less than 30 percent of separations at the site since the beginning of 1995 have been involuntary.

Involuntarily separated employees will be eligible for benefits under the terms and conditions of the Hanford Work Force Restructuring Plan approved in February 1995. These benefits will include regular contract severance payments, displaced worker medical benefits, educational, relocation and outplacement assistance.

With this announcement, the Department will reach its declared level of necessary employee reductions at Hanford, and as such will, barring extraordinary circumstances, forgo further personnel reductions at the site for the duration of 1996. No further restructuring at the site will occur prior to January, 1997 without full consultation and consensus among stakeholders, including the Washington State Congressional delegation. This is consistent with a contractor changeover strategy that would have the new firm assume responsibility in October 1996 and prepare a work force plan prior to any further restructuring.

The Department is also carefully considering a request to offer an early retirement program during 1996 to mitigate the impact of contractor changeover on the work force.

MORATORIUM ON INVOLUNTARY SEPARATIONS AT THE HANFORD SITE

On April 11, 1996, the Department of Energy reached an agreement with members of the Washington State delegation, including Senators Slade Gorton (R-WA) and Patty Murray (D-WA) and Congressman Richard (Doc) Hastings (R-WA), placing a moratorium on involuntary separations. In order to assure that the transition to the new management and integration contract is efficient and that the necessary mix of employee skills is achieved to perform site missions, no significant involuntary reductions will take place for the duration of FY 1996.

On April 18, 1996, the Secretary of Energy conducted a site visit to the Hanford Site in Washington State and announced the Department's intention to provide an early retirement program during 1996 to help address the requirement to reduce 300-500 positions in FY 1996.

If further employment adjustments are requested by site contractors before 1997, the Department will consult fully and seek general agreement among affected parties, including members of the Washington State Congressional delegation, before taking action. This is consistent with a contractor changeover strategy that would have the selected firm prepare a work force restructuring plan for DOE approval prior to determining the need for and conditions of any work force restructuring in 1997.

MORATORIUM ON INVOLUNTARY SEPARATIONS AT THE SAVANNAH RIVER SITE

On April 16, 1996, the Department of Energy announced that, barring unforseen circumstances, a moratorium was placed on involuntary separations of permanent employees at the Savannah River Site until calendar year 1997. This will provide the opportunity to conduct additional work force planning associated with FY 1997 programmatic and budget impacts, transition to a new contract and outsourcing. The Department has also announced that the level of the construction work force will remain stable through 1996.

The Department's decision to revise its work force restructuring strategy for the Savannah River Site was also influenced by concerns raised by the affected employees and their elected representatives during both public and private meetings since the announcement on March 19, 1996.

The Department is offering an Early Retirement Incentive program that would add three years to both age and service for eligibility and pension calculations and a targeted Voluntary Separation Program for job classifications with excess incumbents. Employees in job classifications with excess incumbents would be offered two weeks of separation pay for each year of service up to a maximum of 26 years service, along with medical, education, relocation and outplacement assistance.

These voluntary separations would come on top of 820 positions eliminated to date through normal attrition and completion of subcontracts and construction projects thus far during FY 1996.

WORK FORCE PLANNING ACTIVITIES

FIRST MEETING OF THE PLANNING INTEGRATION GUIDANCE GROUP

As follow-up to Under Secretary Tom Grumbly's remarks on integrating work force planning and restructuring activities at the March 1996 National Stakeholder's Workshop, the Office of Worker and Community Transition convened the first meeting of the Planning Integration Guidance Group (PIGG) on April 2, 1996. The mission of the group was two-fold: 1) develop a planning process to assist the Field offices prepare their Restructuring Plans. The process addresses three stages of work force planning - analyzing the current work force to determine knowledge and critical skills, assessing future mission requirements (using the Common Occupational Classification System), and develop human resource strategies to meet future needs (refer to the 10-Step Planning Process, Attachment I); and 2) develop a work force planning component as part of the Interim Planning Guidance for Contractor Work Force Restructuring (February 1996). A demonstration of an analytical approach to work force planning will be a requirement of future restructuring plans. Pilots of the process are currently being conducted at the Oak Ridge Operations and Ohio Field Offices. Lessons learned will be reported to the PIGG members at the end of June, 1996. Training will be offered to the Field offices and its contractors starting in July.

LABOR RELATIONS

POLICY ISSUES

SITE VISITS CONTINUING BETWEEN THE DEPARTMENT AND THE METAL TRADES COUNCIL

The first site visit with the Metal Trades Council took place at Hanford, Washington, on April 17, 1996. John Meese, President of the Metal Trades Department of the AFL-CIO attended the meeting and will attend all future meetings. Pantex, in Amarillo, Texas was the next site visit on April 30, 1996. Agreement was reached that site visits to Sandia, New Mexico and Fernald, Ohio will occur in mid-June, and to Oak Ridge, Tennessee in early July.

CONTRACT NEGOTIATIONS

The following is a list of collective bargaining agreements scheduled to be negotiated in the second quarter of calendar year 1996:

Site Union Type of Employees
Los Alamos IGUA Guards
Oak Ridge ATLC Metal Trades Council (Production and Maintenance)
Nevada IGAN Guards

COMMUNITY TRANSITION ACTIVITIES

APPROVAL FOR A COMMUNITY ASSISTANCE GRANT TO THE NEVADA COMMUNITY REUSE ORGANIZATION

On March 25, 1996, the Department of Energy approved a $5 million grant funded by allocating $2.5 million in FY 1996 funds and $2.5 million from FY 1997. The grant is to be used for the following purposes: 1) a business development and marketing program that would promote the opportunities at the Nevada Test Site for mining and environmental testing; 2) a business assistance program to accelerate development technology-related businesses and jobs; 3) a capital finance program based on a revolving load fund; and, 4) a modest budget for administration/operations that will provide management functions to effectively utilize resources and support the development of new and expanded Federal activities in Nevada. The grant application was favorably reviewed by the Economic Development Administration (EDA) at the Commerce Department and suggested changes are being incorporated by the Community Reuse Organization.

APPROVAL FOR A COMMUNITY ASSISTANCE GRANT TO THE PINELLAS PLANT COMMUNITY REUSE ORGANIZATION

On April 15, 1996, the Department of Energy approved a $5 million grant to support transferring technologies used at the Pinellas Plant for private use and creating businesses that will help mitigate the financial impacts of closing the plant.

After third-party review of the proposal by the Economic Development Administration, the Department allocated $5 million for community transition activities. The Pinellas Plant Community Reuse Organization intends to use the funds for the following purposes: 1) technology deployment center that applies equipment, technical expertise, production capability at the Plant in new economic and business development; 2) increase the probability for successful commercial spin-off of Pinellas Plant resources; 3) support to allow firm-specific training to support new job creation; and 4) preparation of facility to accommodate new tenants. Expected outcomes of the additional funding are: 1) create or retain 2,008 jobs; 2) expand or create 34 businesses; and 3) proactively recruit tenants to lease space at the Pinellas Plant either "as is" or immediately upon DOE close-out.

COMMUNITY TRANSITION FUNDING TARGETED FOR NORTHERN NEW MEXICO

On April 16, 1996, the Department of Energy approved a $3.1 million grant for projects in Northern New Mexico to mitigate the adverse impacts of defense-related downsizing at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL).

Reductions-in-force at LANL and its support contractors have significantly impacted the Northern New Mexico region, particularly Los Alamos, Rio Arriba and Santa Fe counties. More than 200 LANL employees and 700 support contractors were notified in 1995 that their positions were being eliminated.

The community transition grants will be administered through the Department's Albuquerque Operations Office. A cooperative agreement is being developed that will enable the County of Los Alamos to function as the Department's fiscal agent for the grants.

The grants are based on recommendations made by the Northern New Mexico Defense Adjustment Task Force and will fund two general types of projects: 1) regional initiatives, such as a revolving loan fund for businesses and an in-plant training fund and 2) community-specific projects, such as a business incubator for the City of Espanola, a clean room for the development and testing of microelectronic devices at Northern New Mexico Community College, and a LANL-use authority for the County of Los Alamos.

COMPLETION OF AN INTERAGENCY AGREEMENT WITH THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT ADMINISTRATION (EDA) OF THE COMMERCE DEPARTMENT TO ASSIST AIKEN COUNTY, SOUTH CAROLINA, DEVELOP AN INDUSTRIAL PARK

On April 18, 1996, the Department of Energy announced the approval of an Interagency Agreement (IAG) between the Department of Energy and the Department of Commerce, Economic Development Administration (EDA), in order to provide a means for administering and implementing infrastructure projects using community transition funding. Departmental policy generally discourages using these funds for infrastructure purposes, unless such assistance is coordinated with the EDA. A transfer of $4.5 million has been made to EDA to assist Aiken County, South Carolina, in developing an industrial park.

Expectation that these funds would be made available was partly responsible for leveraging a $123 million investment by SKF AB, the world's largest producers of roller bearings. SKF AB has committed to building a facility at the park to produce automotive hub units and employ 250 workers. The Savannah River Operations Office has identified $4.8 million that is available to assist this effort. Under this IAG, the Department would transfer the $4.5 million to EDA to be administered as a grant to Aiken County. As a means of expediting the effort, EDA would be authorized by the Department to advance funds and approve pre-award expenditures.

PROPOSED FUNDING REQUEST BY THE COMMUNITY REUSE ORGANIZATION FOR THE HANFORD SITE TO ASSIST ELEVEN COMMUNITY TRANSITION PROJECTS

On April 18, 1996, during a meeting with the Tri-Cities Industrial Development Council (TRIDEC), the Secretary of Energy announced the Department's intention to allocate $5.5 million for community transition activities in FY 1996 and $5.5 million in FY 1997. This announcement came after third-party review of TRIDEC's proposal by the Economic Development Administration.

TRIDEC proposes to fund twelve primary projects in the areas of: 1) industry and marketing programs that would promote opportunities in the Tri-Cities, Benton and Franklin counties; 2) business assistance programs that would supply technical assistance, venture capital and technology development to create jobs; and 3) community planning programs in Los Alamos National Laboratory.

The $11 million in funding for TRIDEC will contribute to the following: 1) generate contact with 1,000-1,500 companies outside the Tri-Cities area; 2) service 2,700-3,000 customers including new entrepreneurs, small, minority and women-owned businesses; 3) create 650-700 new jobs; 4) retrain workers for 150-200 jobs; and 5) generate $40 to $50 million in economic benefits over the next two years.
