ing them in an advisory capacity in
eyeryi way possible.? There are inter­
departmental training activities where
the commission participation becomes
more direct. The existence of other
training agencies; available to the state'
will undoubtedly be relied upon heav­
ily. The State Department of Vocation­
al Education is equipped and financed
in such a w ayi^s to prove of great
value in preparing and stimulating
necessary training activities. Except for
special situations, it is unlikely that th e ,
civil service commission will’ eyet\ be­
come the supervising or training agency
for staff development programs.
CAREFUL DRIVERS
Employee Relations
From- the o u t s e t , jfehe-
concensUs of those administering; the
Oregon ¿.civil 'service program that the
highly formalized type of employee re-
lations/was to be avoided in everyw ay
possible. The official-- policies of the
civil service commission in terms of
•classification, salaries, - working -hours,
and general working conditions are
made clear through I written and verbal
media. These are subject 'to- question or
review at any >tifrie by supervisors or
employees'. Every question is weighed
as conscientiously as possible but with
full consideration, given to all relative
^values for the best interests of the state
as a whole. It is believed that accept­
ance of employee relatidnsi determina­
tions are conditioned largely oh the
mutual trust and respect which exists
between th^ participants in any ques­
tion. To date this approach has been
successful.. Under the stress of unusual
economic conditions or other special
situations, a long-term test of the ef­
fectiveness of such policy remains fo
be seen.
