The Ohio Labor Management Cooperation Program (OLMCP) is a program of the Ohio Department of Development (ODOD) that enhances the relationship between labor and management through work-site training programs, regular meetings, workshops and conferences. It creates a stable and positive work environment by nurturing cooperative labor management relationships and by dispelling negative labor images.

Since 1986, Ohio, through the Ohio Department of Development, has invested significant time and money in the promotion and implementation of labor-management cooperation concepts. This investment has produced a system of ten community-based organizations. Local Not-For-Profit Organizations. Public-Private Partnerships. Forums for Labor and Management to jointly identify and address economic development issues. Offerings of Training, Facilitation, Workshops, and Involvement Processes. This structure allows programs and training to be tailored to organizations’ specific needs, which differ from one region of Ohio to another. The OLMCP has been an effective economic development tool by anchoring existing industry more firmly in local communities, retaining and expanding the pool of well-paying white and blue collar jobs, and improving labor-management climate to make relocation to Ohio even more attractive.
