In April 2008, the Confederation of British Industry, the Trades Union Congress and the Department for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform launched a joint project to describe the role of modern union representatives and the positive contribution they can make to the workplace. The three parties aim to publish a joint statement about these issues around the end of 2008, after assembling evidence from a range of other organisations and experts.

The joint statement will present case study evidence showing how management and lay union representatives have worked positively together. These real-life examples, drawn from specially-commissioned research, will also identify the benefits such an approach can deliver.

For more information about this project, or if you have information about potential case studies which you believe the project group should consider, please contact:
