Vallejo Police Outsource Report Writing

Source: By JACKSON WEST, NBC Bay Area (CA), 2:47 AM PDT, Tue, Sep 29, 2009

The police department in cash-strapped Vallejo, Calif., may have found a way to save a little money.


The Police Department is now using a transcription service based in Tennessee -- Nashville-McLintock Transcription and Consulting Services -- to write up its police reports.

 .......The practice is less expensive than hiring new personnel and could possibly elicit more details from officers who might otherwise keep it brief if they had to do the typing themselves.

Healing Together: The Labor-Management Partnership at Kaiser Permanente

by Thomas A. Kochan; Adrienne E. Eaton; Robert B. McKersie; Paul S. Adler



Kaiser Permanente is the largest

managed care organization in the

country. It also happens to have

the largest and most complex

labor-management partnership

ever created in the United States.

This book tells the story of that

partnership-how it started, how it

grew, who made it happen, and

the lessons to be learned from its

successes and complications.

With twenty-seven unions and

an organization as complex as

8.6-million-member Kaiser

Permanente, establishing the

partnership was not a simple

task and maintaining it has

proven to be extraordinarily

challenging.
