About TRSA Committees
Values
TRSA Committees and Task Force participation offers valuable opportunities such as:
- Collaborate with colleagues – both Operator and Supplier Partner members – who share common issues and/or market-segment interests
- Opportunity to provide subject matter expertise and guidance to the TRSA Board of Directors, directly impacting TRSA’s investment in research, resources, education and training, specifically
- Aid in the development of educational content and keynote presentations for TRSA professional development programs, including conferences, summits and webinars
- Assist in identifying topics and authors for our monthly Textile Services magazine
- Examine issues and provide guidance to the association by serving on special task forces as managed by the Board of Directors
Membership
TRSA Committee Chairs are appointed by the elected TRSA Chair and approved by the Board of Directors. Committee members are selected by the Chair and subject to the approval of the Board of Directors.
Meetings
Committees and Task Forces meet either at a designated TRSA professional development event or another location, or via quarterly teleconference as coordinated by the Committee or Task Force Chair.
About TRSA Networks
Values
The Board of Directors forms and maintains networks dedicated to professions (job functions or professions) or customer industry markets (such as Healthcare) or other core issues or areas of expertise recognized as significant to linen, uniform and facility services operations.
Networks are involved primarily in networking and information-sharing among network members. A network may supplement a committee’s work as a body exclusively dedicated to information-sharing and networking in the committee’s area of expertise.
For a network to function effectively and for participants to speak freely and openly, its discussions and deliberations of any sensitive information remain confidential within the network. No TRSA news or leadership report attributes any comments to any individuals.
Members
All individuals in networks are employees of TRSA member companies in good standing. Individuals self-appoint to network membership and retain membership permanently unless they resign or become inactive by failing to participate in network events or other activities.
