Members' guide to the
Annual Delegate Meeting
|
Most people join a trade union because by combining together everyone is stronger and so better wages and conditions at work can be obtained. A union, therefore, cannot exist separately from its members – the members are the union.
In Usdaw each member belongs to a branch and once a year delegates from branches meet together at the Annual Delegate Meeting (ADM) to decide on what Usdaw should be doing on behalf of all members. In this way everyone has a right to participate in union activities and to have a say in what the union does. Usdaw is a democratic organisation and ADM is our union's democracy in action.
This handbook describes briefly what the main job of ADM is, how it is organised and how it carries out its business. It is written for all Usdaw members, but particularly for those attending their first ADM. We hope that it will be a useful guide to ADM and encourage members to play a more active role in our union: Unity is Strength.
The handbook is available to download at the end of this page.
