JTAC stands for which type of committee in labor-management relations?

• A. Joint Trade and Apprenticeship Council
• B. Joint Labor/Management Training Committee
• C. Joint Technical Advisory Committee
• D. Joint Labor Association Committee

Answer: (B)

In labor-management relations, a JTAC is a joint committee created by both sides—the workers and the employer—to oversee training and apprenticeship efforts. The name itself signals its purpose: Joint Labor/Management Training Committee. This means the committee focuses on developing, approving, and monitoring training programs that help workers gain skills and that align with the company’s needs.

That’s why this option is the best fit: it explicitly emphasizes both labor and management involvement and centers on training, which is the core function suggested by the acronym. The other options point to different roles—councils or advisory groups with focuses outside joint training (such as general technical guidance or a generic labor association)—and don’t capture the specific joint training purpose of JTAC.
