UNISON policy on how to Support and Develop Reps • The Policy document explaining the rationale and giving model agreements about mentors and buddies • The Trained and Active Plan • The principle of the named Branch Contact • A start would be for everyone in the room to become the named contact for one other rep who is not in the room and get a completed TAP from these people.

  4. Next Steps • Those who have a completed TAP form to become the named contact for the next group of reps and so on until all reps have a named contact and a completed TAP form • TAP forms analysed and extra training offered • But as a minimum now what’s needed is a STEWARDS REFRESHER course and an ORGANISING Steward Course

Activity – Why mentor reps? • In each category below think how would the individual benefit from having a mentor and how would the branch benefit • In the first weeks after election but before they have attended a formal course • After they have attended a formal course but have not yet represented a member • When they have to represent a member • When they are running local campaigns
