Ninth Circuit Workplace RelationsThe Office of Workplace Relations was established in January 2019 and is the first of its kind in the federal judiciary. It leads the Ninth Circuit's efforts in preventing and resolving workplace issues through the implementation of the Ninth Circuit Employment Dispute Resolution Policy and related policies, initiatives, and trainings. The office also provides support and expert advice on workplace diversity, equity, and inclusion matters. The Ninth Circuit Office of Workplace Relations serves all 63 court units throughout the Ninth Circuit, including the Court of Appeals, district and bankruptcy courts, probation and pretrial offices, and federal public defender offices.

Establishing the Office of Workplace Relations was one of the foremost recommendations of the Ninth Circuit Workplace Environment Committee, which is chaired by Senior Circuit Judge M. Margaret McKeown. Maintaining a healthy and productive workplace for all employees will continue to be the highest priority for the Ninth Circuit.
