Three seats on the Hanford Concerns Council
are held by members with ties to employee advocacy interest groups
and who are trusted by and knowledgeable of the employee community. These
members not only interpret and reflect the views of the
interest groups, they have the ability to bring
alternative perspectives which can open new and constructive channels
for implementation of safety practices.
As an important part of the Council, these employee advocacy leaders help to guarantee that the process addresses the
safety issues
of all employees, as well as ensuring the welfare of the individual,
and the employee group as a whole is protected.

"The Concerns Council represents a unique avenue for employees
to identify and resolve concerns in a safe environment, without
giving up their rights. Especially in a complex workplace like
Hanford, it is essential that every employee can be heard. Hanford Challenge
encourages Hanford employees to utilize this process
when they feel that their concerns are not being adequately addressed
through the normal channels."
