Union Delegates training 2023 Delegates play an important role in the union, by working together to strengthen each member together to advance and protect the interests of the union and the wages, conditions and welfare of its workforce.
Organiser Amanda Perkins delivers Role of the delegate session On-going training is vital to ensuring Delegates have the skills and knowledge to be an effective representative for their fellow members, to be able to assist across a range of issues including advocacy and accountability. Union Delegates training has been in full swing throughout 2023 with a number of two-day courses being held throughout the year. The training focuses on basic skills that Delegates need in the workplace, including supporting members, recruiting new members, problem solving, mapping the workplace and the role of the Delegate.
