And last, but not least, Sheila’s husband Chris came along for the ride. George kicked us off at the LGC on the Sunday with a challenge from the microphone over our motion on Fighting Local Authority Cuts being disallowed from the agenda. Conference voted to refer the issue back to the Local Government SOC and George went to see them with our regional rep, Mark, to argue our corner. Unfortunately, they stuck to their position that our motion could bring the union into legal jeopardy so it didn’t get on. Helen was next – on the first day of NDC she got up to question why the union was not challenging Labour Councils who are implementing cuts and why we were not pushing a strategy of non- compliance with the cuts.

  • Annual Report 2017 Marked the End of the 2012 Congress Mandate and a Significant Period of Challenge for PSI Affiliates and Rebuilding for PSI
    PUBLIC SERVICES INTERNATIONAL The global union federation of workers in public services ENGLISH Annual Report 2017 marked the end of the 2012 congress mandate and a significant period of challenge for PSI affiliates and rebuilding for PSI. ver the period of the mandate, Opublic sector un- ions and workers have faced grave challenges. The burden of austerity has continued, our trade union rights have come under attack, the extreme right has grown, and we have seen the demoniza- tion of women, migrants and vulnerable groups. But we have also seen opportunities unfold – the rising awareness of the failures of neoliber- INTRODUCTION alism, growing evidence of the failures of privati- sation and demands for something better and radically different. To meet these challenges and use these opportuni- ties, PSI has increased its work in a range of prior- ity areas; invested in its communications capaci- ty; continued to build its project work; established sectoral networks, and increased our research and publications. INTRODUCTION 2 PUBLIC SERVICES INTERNATIONAL ANNUAL REPORT 2017 3 PSI has been an active player in the global wave of re-municipal- isations; our efforts contributed to the ratification of ILO Conven- tion 151 in the Philippines and the recognition of health sector union NAHWUL in Liberia after a four-year campaign. Our work ensured that the UN Commission on Health Employ- ment and Economic Growth (ComHEEG) did not endorse PPPs as a means for addressing the projected shortfall of 18 million health workers globally by 2030, but rather committed to further investment in public health. We also contributed to halting trade agreements, such as the Trade in Services Agreement (TiSA) and to the creation of a new political discourse on tax via the estab- lishment of the Independent Commission on the Reform of Inter- national Corporate Taxation (ICRICT).

  • Trade Unions, Workers' Rights and the Frontier of Control in UK Call Centres Philip Taylor University of Stirling Peter Bain University of Strathclyde
    Trade Unions, Workers' Rights and the Frontier of Control in UK Call Centres Philip Taylor University of Stirling Peter Bain University of Strathclyde In developing a model of call centre diversity, spanning the dimensions of quantity and quality, the article develops a critique of aspects of Frenkel et al.'s recent study of `front line' work. Drawing upon employee survey and interview data from six UK ®nancial sector call centres, patterns of resistance and the contrasting responses of trade unions to the experience of intensive working conditions are examined. It is argued, in conclusion, that the newly established managerial `frontiers of control' require to be combated by new union bargaining agendas which seek to address employees' concerns at the point of production. Keywords: call centres, control, ®nance sector, resistance, trade unions Introduction Employment in call centres in the European Union is projected to grow to 1.8 million by 2002 with over half a million, 2.3 percent of the working population, expected to be employed in UK call centres alone (Datamonitor, 1998). While the pattern across Europe is of combined and uneven development, with considerable variance in national and regional growth rates, the overall picture is of rapid expansion. As a consequence, it is no longer possible to regard call centres as economically marginal or ephemeral. Nor is there evidence to support the conjecture that the rise of the Internet Economic and Industrial Democracy & 2001 (SAGE, London, Thousand Oaks and New Delhi), Vol. 22: 39±66. [0143±831X(200102)22:1;39±66;015740] 40 Economic and Industrial Democracy 22(1) will displace the call centre (Datamonitor, 1999) as the integration of operations leads to the emergence of customer contact centres.

  • The Value of Trade Unions in Wales Evidence Review
    The value of trade unions in Wales Evidence review Jonathan Webb, Suzanna Nesom, Craig Johnson and Helen Tilley October 2019 Our Mission The Wales Centre for Public Policy’s mission is to improve policy making and outcomes by supporting ministers and public services to access rigorous independent evidence about what works. We collaborate with leading researchers and other policy experts to synthesise and mobilise existing evidence and identify gaps where there is a need to generate new knowledge. The Centre is independent of government but works closely with policy makers and practitioners to develop fresh thinking about how to address strategic challenges in health and social care, education, housing, the economy and other devolved responsibilities. It: • Supports Welsh Government Ministers to identify, access and use authoritative evidence and independent expertise that can help inform and improve policy; • Works with public services to access, generate, evaluate and apply evidence about what works in addressing key economic and societal challenges; and • Draws on its work with Ministers and public services, to advance understanding of how evidence can inform and improve policy making and public services and contribute to theories of policy making and implementation. Through secondments, PhD placements and its Research Apprenticeship programme, the Centre also helps to build capacity among researchers to engage in policy relevant research which has impact. For further information please visit our website at www.wcpp.org.uk Core Funders Cardiff University was founded in 1883. Located in a thriving capital city, Cardiff is an ambitious and innovative university, which is intent on building strong international relationships while demonstrating its commitment to Wales.
