Maintaining healthy workforce relations

Lucinda and Andy are joined by Antonia Bance, head of campaigns, communications and digital at the Trades Union Congress, and Idris Arshad, people and inclusion partner at St Christopher’s Hospice. 

In the wake of a recent strike announcement by more than 500 staff at Shelter, they discuss how organisations can prevent employee relations from deteriorating to the point of industrial action being called.

Idris provides guidance on maintaining open and honest communications channels between management and staff, which is particularly important during periods of financial difficulty, while Antonia notes the increase in online enquiries from third sector professionals seeking information about joining unions. She outlines the benefits of joining a union and provides information on the unions covering the third sector.

This week’s Good News Bulletin covers the growing trend of festive charity tractor runs.
