In addition, other issues such as CEC special reports, CEC Statements and Financial Reports are debated and voted on. Once these have been endorsed, they become GMB Policy for the union as a whole. Following the endorsement of the CEC Special Report ‘Framework for the Future of the GMB: Moving Forward’ at Congress 2007, it was agreed that Congress will not debate motions which are determined to be existing union policy. At its meetings prior to Congress, the CEC identifies those Congress motions which are in line with existing GMB policy. These recommendations are reported to Congress in SOC Report No 1 at the start of Congress. Delegates will be asked to endorse these motions and if agreed, the motions will not be debated. However following Congress progress on these motions will continue to be reported. The following guide is an indication of GMB policy but is not a definitive list.

  • Workforce Partnership Council (WPC) Joint Statement on Paid Leave for Staff Experiencing Domestic Abuse
    Workforce Partnership Council (WPC) Joint Statement on Paid Leave for Staff Experiencing Domestic Abuse The Workforce Partnership Council (WPC) is a tripartite social partnership structure of the trade unions, employers and Welsh Government covering the devolved public services in Wales and the forum for cross-public services workforce matters. The WPC is committed to promoting equality in the work place and recognises the profound impact domestic abuse can have on an individual. For this reason the WPC supports the provision of paid leave to members of staff across the devolved public services who are experiencing domestic abuse and are asking all devolved public service organisations to make an express commitment to provide paid leave for staff experiencing domestic abuse, where appropriate, in their special leave or domestic abuse policies. The Impact of Domestic Abuse and the Importance of Paid Leave The effect of domestic abuse is wide ranging. Members of staff may need time off work to access legal or financial advice, to arrange child care or alternative accommodation and to seek medical advice. For this reason the WPC believes it is important for devolved public service organisations in Wales to have policies to support staff experiencing domestic abuse and to make provision for paid leave where appropriate within these or special leave policies. The WPC believes that such policies provide survivors with peace of mind, support and gives them vital reassurance that they will not be financially penalised as they deal with the effects of domestic abuse. The WPC recognises that there are many organisations across the devolved public services in Wales which provide paid leave to help support members of staff experiencing domestic abuse and it wishes to acknowledge the good practice that exists.

  • Colfer Phd Final Submitted 04.12.18 Trade Union Influence Under
    This dissertation is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Politics and International Studies. Pembroke College, University of Cambridge, December 2017 i Declaration This dissertation is the result of my own work and includes nothing which is the outcome of work done in collaboration except as declared in the Preface and specified in the text. It is not substantially the same as any that I have submitted, or, is being concurrently submitted for a degree or diploma or other qualification at the University of Cambridge or any other university or similar institution except as specified in the text. I further state that no substantial part of my dissertation has already been submitted, or, is being concurrently submitted for any such degree, diploma or other qualification at the University of Cambridge or any other university or similar institution. It does not exceed the prescribed word limit. i There's a simple doctrine: outside of a person's love, the most sacred thing that they can give is their labour. And somehow or another along the way, we tend to forget that. Labour is a very precious thing that you have. Anytime that you can combine labour with love, you've made a good merger. -James Carville ii Acknowledgements I want to thank the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC), the University of Cambridge Home and European Scholarship Scheme (CHESS), Pembroke College, the estate of the late Professor Monica Partridge, and the Cambridge Political Economy Society for their generous funding and support throughout my doctoral research. I also want to thank the European Trade Union Institute and the American College of Athens, especially Professor Eleni Patra, for supporting me during fieldwork in Brussels and Athens respectively.
