Time to enrol for trade union courses in the Midlands

~~Trade union shop stewards, health and safety reps and union learning reps are being encouraged to enrol on TUC education courses that start from Monday 14 September 2015. The courses cover everything a union representative needs to know to help and support their members in the workplace.

Trade union education:
• keeps union reps up to date with the law
• gives them the confidence they need to effectively organise in their workplace.
• trains skilled and knowledgeable union representatives to ensure that working people get the best protection from their union
• helps employers have stable and productive employment relations.

As a result of attending TUC courses, union reps, health and safety reps and union learning reps tell us:
• they now feel far more confident when talking to managers and members
• they can now tackle issues and concerns more effectively
• ensures that problems are sorted out before they escalate out of proportion.

Courses on offer include basic shop stewards and health and safety reps training, employment law and union learning representatives.  Reps who are interested in registering should follow the link below to apply online using the electronic form. Reps are able to claim time off from work to attend accredited TUC courses.
