CONTACTING LEAVERS:RETENTION<br />

Workplace Organisers need to look at keeping members in <strong>GMB</strong> as well recruiting new members and<br />

representing them well.<br />

In most workplaces where people are leaving to start a new job,they tell their employer about a month<br />

in advance.This means that your employer can tell you at any given time who is about to leave your<br />

workplace.<br />

If this is not a part of your current recognition agreement with the employer just ask your manager for<br />

the relevant information and raise it at your next meeting to be given to you on a regular basis.You may<br />

seek the help of your <strong>GMB</strong> Officer to do this.<br />

ONCE YOU HAVE FOUND OUT WHO IS ABOUT TO LEAVE YOUR <strong>WO</strong>RKPLACE<br />

Ask each person working their notice where they will be working next.If it is a workplace where <strong>GMB</strong> is<br />

recognised,give details on the Membership Transfer Note you send to your <strong>GMB</strong> Officer.<br />

If they are going to a workplace where <strong>GMB</strong> is not recognised,ask them to fill in a new <strong>GMB</strong> form with<br />

their bank details to set up a direct debit payment and send this to your <strong>GMB</strong> Officer with the<br />

Membership Transfer Note.<br />

Note:<br />

A blank Membership Transfer Note is included overleaf,photocopy as necessary
