Staff Council
The Staff Council is composed of eight members elected by all full-time staff employees. Full-time staff employees who are in at least the second year of service are eligible to serve on Staff Council. The Philanthropic Committee, Queens Community Committee, and the Communications Committee report to Staff Council at monthly meetings.
Please explore the opportunities to be involved with Committees. Involvement allows us the benefits of sharing in the Queens Community, taking part is excellent for career building, and affiliation provides a forum in which we can use our ideas and voice to make this a great place to work and thrive! Committee webpages provide information on who to contact to join and meeting schedules.

The Communications Committee of Team 2007 proposed the creation of a Staff Council for staff.
-
Staff Council was approved in August 2003.
-
At the first Staff Council meeting, December 2003, no one would accept the nomination for secretary. So, a different member takes minutes at every meeting. Talk about Teamwork!
