Thinking of becoming a rep with unison in the nhs Good luck with it and be prepared for some hard graft! I have been on a picket line but never a rep, It"s a thankless task, although I imagine as the NHS don"t strike, you don"t have much ammunition except great negotiation skills.

The ideal union leader should model themseleves on Bob Crow. A fantastic union leader who kenew what his job was and told them all to go f*** themselves and never sold out.

No truer word spoken Kev, no truer word spoken! Although he has passed, and a wall supporter, a great leader who got drivers 50K a year plus!Eric Hammond could have taken a lesson from Bob!

Union rep in the workplace can be a thankless task. It's important to have a coherent understanding between colleagues of the purpose of the Union. Problems I encountered: 1. Lack of interest from colleagues during stable workplace conditions.

Work for the people you represent, not for the company or the political ambitions of the union bosses.

Unions are predominantly legal-savvy these days. I haven't experiences strong-arm tactics by Unions in my adult life, that were around in the 1970's. Moreover, predominantly Union bosses have a working-class background, but are legally trained. Largely non-political, but more interested in welfare and working conditions and pensions.
