ALL GMB Northants branch members are invited to join the meeting What is Neurodiversity?
Why should GMB Midlands reps know what the myths and realities are around this subject? How can we make work better for neurodivergent workers? To mark world menopause and to highlight the debilitating impact this can have on our members in the workplace, GMB Midlands are hosting a one day training session on 18th October 2023.
Dear Colleagues,
Rule 56 Fatal Accident Benefit The Finance and General Purposes Committee has agreed to update the guidelines that accompany Rule 56. The guidelines do not constitute a rule and have not been updated for many years. GMB Congress this year was held in Brighton, the sun shone it was warm as was the atmosphere inside the hall.
In the foyer as you entered the building a range of stalls from , specialist books, Amazon, Waspi , Credit Union, support for Cuba, Bladder cancer to name a few and of course the Equality one ! Highlights over the days included representatives from the Amazon workforce at Coventry who gave a moving speech on their fight for recognition.( and a standing ovation) The National Secretary supported the Amazon workers and said he won’t rest until Amazon is recognised. GMB Education have places available for the GMB 5 Day Equality Course taking place at the GMB Leicester Office on the following dates:
February 20th & 27th March 6th, 13th & 20th In support of our Amazon Workers who are taking Strike Action, GMB are standing with our Amazon Workers especially at this time in Coventry Fulfilment Site. Find out more here To say that the past few years have been difficult for workers and their families would be to understate the obvious. What with the pandemic and the current economic crisis, people feel paralysed by the mess this government have flagrantly bestowed on communities throughout the UK.
This government have failed miserably to deal with the cost of living crisis but in doing so they are deliberately trying to distract from their failure by picking a fight with trade unions and the current wave of industrial action is a reaction to that failure. There is no alternative to such aggressive behaviour, we simply need to rise to that challenge and fight back and stand together supporting our members and their families. A union is not a union if it negates its own action. No matter how much the right wing press vilify, in the most disparaging way our right to protect workers and to withdraw our labour when faced with the intransigence of employers and the interference of government for political objective, we need to stand firm and we stand together. |
