Recruiting Members to the GMB

Welcome to the recruitment resource section for GMB London Region activists.

 

We hope that these pages will assist you in organising your workplace, recruiting and retaining members.

 

Over the last year, due to the efforts of our activists, officers and staff the London Region has increased its membership by over 4,000 members.

 

We now have nearly 95,000 members in this region and want to ensure that we continue to grow, so that we can provide better services and greater support.

 

Our activists are key to this aim. With over 2,400 workplace reps in the Region, we need your help to recruit non-members, and retain existing members in your workplaces.

 

Recruitment is everyone's responsibility, from activists, branches, officers and staff. Each Branch should look to producing an annual Recruitment Plan based on local surveys by reps, involving the support of the officers and Regional Organising Team.

 

There is a full programme of training available to our workplace reps, all of which deal with issues of recruitment and retention. For full details click here.
In addition there is a specific organisation course for reps and these dates can be seen by clicking "training dates".

 

In addition, members can join on line and pay by Direct Debit.

The London Region also has a selection of items for sale and you can visit this page by clicking Merchandise.
