Industrial Relations Training for Shop Stewards: Training without Objectives

Abstract

INTRODUCTION Shop stewards' educational requirements, in terms of individual needs, organisational and even national needs, are reasonably easy to demonstrate. The meeting of these needs, at these various levels, in terms of the quantity and quality of the education provided for shop stewards, is less easy to demonstrate. In fact, any examination of the current situation in the respects, leads to the inescapable conclusion that the responsible providing bodies are, with few exceptions, failing in this most important task.
