The Joint Departmental Council or Majlis Bersama Jabatan, MBJ in short is a forum where the employees of an organisation express their opinions, put forward ideas and suggestions to the management for the betterment of the organisation. The Civil Service Department of Malaysia[1] put it as '... a two-way medium, where the employees are given a channel to communicate with the management in voicing opinions and views, and contributing constructive ideas for the betterment of the organisation.'
MBJ was formally formed in Pustaka Negeri Sarawak in 2003. Since then, the MBJ Constitution has been revised three times.

Nomination and Election
Employee Representatives are elected via ballots by the staff and they hold office for a term of two years. Prior to that, election candidates are nominated and top fifteen highest nominated candidates go to the poll. The maximum number of terms the Employee Representatives can hold office consecutively is two, which is four years.
Meetings
The MBJ meets four times a year and the outcomes of meetings are communicated to the staff during staff assemblies and in the Staff Portal. At least one month before a scheduled MBJ meeting is held, the staff will be notified via emails to submit suggestions, comments and ideas to the Employee Representatives. These submissions will then be filtered and aggregated by the Employee Representatives before being formalised into proposal papers for the MBJ meeting. Staff are advised to refrain from bring up matters pertaining to policies and personal attacks.
Typical MBJ Meeting Agenda:
- Confirmation of minutes of the previous MBJ meeting
- Matters arising from minutes of the previous MBJ meeting
