On January 14, 2026, our Statewide DMV JLMC team met with the Department of Motor Vehicles’ top level management team, to address various issues regarding our working conditions.
Key Takeaways
- Vacation Annual Bidding: Transparency and timelines remain top concerns. Management is open to improving.
- Driver Safety Platform: Last quarter changes were successfully made to the statewide platform making workload fair and equitable. Management had good news with improvements in productivity and labor had good news with improvement of morale.
- Password Management: New 15-character requirement. Most employees will not need to change passwords every 90 days. Memo was emailed at the end of December with details.
Take Ownership of Your Success
- Notify Management Early: When signing up for training, give your manager a courtesy notice right away letting them know you signed up for a DMV U training, so approvals don’t hold you back.

- Share Your Ideas: Do you have suggestions to improve working conditions? Now is the time to speak up.
