The Neutrality Project
The Neutrality Project pools the collective experience and expertise
of ALRA’s agencies on the subject most critical to their effectiveness –
their neutrality. The success of ALRA agencies depends on the public
and the parties they serve having confidence in the fairness of
the process and the integrity of the agency. The purpose of the report
is to articulate the standards of conduct which ALRA believes best
ensures that high level of confidence.
The report
is broken into four chapters: Foundations of Neutrality; Independence;
Conflicts and the Appearance of Conflicts of Interest; and Special
Considerations Regarding Mediation. In each, experts in administrative
and labor law have weighed in with their analysis of what the governing
principles are for an agency and/or agency officials in impartially and
effectively administering the statutes they are entrusted with.
