Dear Member,
Further to a recent survey of all Tesco Shop Stewards we note that there is no elected Health & Safety Worker Representative in your Store. We further note that there is a need to get more members involved in the Store House Committee and are therefore seeking nominations for these positions also.
Section 25 of the Safety, Health & Welfare at Work Act 2005, entitles employees to decide on, select and appoint a Safety Representative to represent them in consultations with their employer on matters of Safety, Health and Welfare at their place of work.
If you are interested in filling the vacant position of Health & Safety Rep for your Store or if you wish to become a member of the Store House Committee, then please enter your details below, or alternatively please ask your Shop Steward for a Nomination Form, complete same and return it in the prepaid envelope provided with the Nomination Form. In the event that more than one Nomination is received for the Health & Safety Rep position, the undersigned will arrange an election to take place at the earliest opportunity.
Please complete the Online Nomination, or return the completed paper Nomination Form by Friday, 26th February 2021.
All successful nominees will be required to complete the relevant training course, which will be provided by Mandate Trade Union. Please do not hesitate to contact the undersigned if you have any queries with regard to the contents of this correspondence on (01) 8746321 or at the emails below.
Thanking you in advance.
Yours fraternally,
Keith Pollard
Divisional Organiser.
