Why Join PMA?
Representation & Support of Members
We have a 100% success rate!
The PMA has a wide range of experience in supporting and
representing members who find themselves in professional
difficulties. Many of these difficulties stem from the pressure
managers are experiencing nationally in order to meet demanding
performance targets, often with inadequate resources. Indeed for
many this specialist resource is the main reason for their
membership of the PMA.
The negotiation of improved retirement packages
The support of members in grievance and discipline procedures
The challenging of capability issues
Negotiating appropriate return to work packages following prolonged
sick leave (particularly stress related)
Addressing issues of bullying in the workplace
These are just some examples of the issues calling for PMA support
and representation during the preceeding twelve months.
All the representational work is backed up by Unite, who provide
the more specific and specialist advice via their Regional
Officers, including free legal advice and representation,
particularly in job threatening situations.
Members experiencing problems in the workplace can in the first
instance contact one of the following NEC members:
