Would then a strong Employers Group... (FAME) and a Strong Unionised Workforce... and a strong Policed Standards be an ideal step forward
BAJR Fed could actually become (in part an individuals, self employed and sole traders group ---- offering support)
I will lay some cards on the table... I need around 10 people who would be interested in (or already are) becoming/discussing/starting as 'shop steward/reps'
Discussions are at an early stage, however we have an opportunity here that cannot be missed... one that makes sure WE as a group, ensure WE as a group have a future.
You do not have to look to far into the future where the constant drain and loss of skills from archaeology will have an increasing effect down teh line... where will the experienced archaeologists be? Who will become the POs? or even Supervisors, when everyone has only 3 months xp? Everyone else left... to get a decent job.
2010... the year things changed... or we gave up? you decide. more than a click to vote yes... But a commitment.
So who is with me? OR should I just forget it, and watch archaeology become a lost cause. :face-huh:
contact me... with your location.... info@bajr.org
Thanks to those that have already!:face-approve:
