YOUR UNION NEEDS YOU!!!!!!
The branch has worked hard over the last few months to try and improve its communications with its members by increasing the frequency of its newsletter, launching a new and improved website and by improving communication between branch officers. However, none of these make up for the lack of workplace contacts and representatives to talk face to face with members, therefore in partnership with the Trusts Human Resources Department we are undergoing a joint initiative were they will support us to increase our number, and improve our geographical cover, of Staff-side representatives and work place contacts within the trust and then support us in enabling their personal development within those roles. There are already areas that enjoy a good level of representation and have good local partnership practise's in place and by increasing the number of representatives (both workplace contacts, workplace reps and health and safety reps) and ensuring good geographical cover the aim is to provide staff with ease of access to a staff-side rep and facilitate the fostering of local level partnership working across all areas of the Trust.
If you feel that you may be interested in one of these roles and would like some more information please either contact your relevant Unison county lead, any branch officer or myself for an informal chat with no commitment !! I will include more information and updates to this initiative in forthcoming issues of our Branch newsletter and on our branch website.
