"This research project sets out to examine the significance of trade union education and training in stimulating and supporting the workplace activities of health and safety representatives. It examines the link between the representatives' perceptions of support they receive from training and the content and methodology of the major form of training provision within the UK. The study also examines the barriers to the availability of training, which need to be taken into account when assessing its importance. It considers these issues in relation to the extent to which they may inform the future development of policy on competence in representative worker participation in health and safety."
