The Hearing Officer Committee is seeking new members. The committee conducts and presides over disciplinary hearings, ensures that hearings proceed in an efficient and unbiased manner and, after deciding whether an accused member violated a Coop rule, determines what disciplinary action should be taken.
Applicants should be Coop members in good standing for at least two years, have good attendance records and preferably have judicial, arbitration, mediation or legal backgrounds.
Members of the committee meet and earn workslot credit on an as-needed basis only, that is, when hearings are required. Therefore these members must also earn workslot credits elsewhere in the Coop and remain in good standing.
The nature of the committee‘s work requires that all members maintain strict confidentiality with respect to all matters on which they work. The committee seeks an applicant pool that reflects the diversity of the Coop membership at large.
