Reps who make it all happen
07 August 2008
Usdaw has hundreds of activists and thousands of members working in distribution, warehousing and transport depots supplying the retail sector across the UK.
“This is a very well organised sector, and the ‘engine room’ of the retail industry,” said general secretary John Hannett, when he joined reps at the Next Distribution site in Elmsall, Leeds and the Sainsbury’s depot in Hoddesdon, Hertfordshire recently.
“Our army of trained activists, health and safety and learning reps are doing a fantastic job looking after members and raising the union’s profile giving us a solid foundation on which to build.
“Lifelong learning is as popular as ever across the sector and we now have learning agreements with a number of distribution firms.
“As a result our membership in this sector is steadily growing across a range of well-known companies.”
