Mobile Toolkit for Worksite Leaders

Mobile Toolkit for Worksite Leaders

AFT’s Mobile Toolkit for Worksite Leaders gives affiliates the ability to provide building representatives and other identified activists with appropriate-level access to selected data on members and potential members. The application can be used to record conversations with colleagues, capture attitudes and opinions on important local or state issues and to update critical contact information, such as cell phone numbers and non-work emails. The application will run on any smart phone, tablet or computer. Best of all, a corresponding application gives local affiliates complete control in setting up and managing worksite leader accounts.

For more information on the Mobile Toolkit for Worksite Leaders, visit www.aft.org/MEmaterials   to watch a short eight minute video. If you would like Mobile Toolkit for Worksite Leaders for your local, please contact Larry Doyle at ldoyle@aft.org.

Support the Ohio State University Nurses

Our nurses at the Ohio State University Medical Center are in a tough contract fight and could use your help.  I am writing a short note to the local leaders in hopes that you will all lend some help by signing on and also pushing out a Move On petition to members.

Workplace violence is not “part of the job”

Workplace violence is not “part of the job”

by Mary Consoli

Nurses and hospital staff were pleased to learn that the U.S Government Accountability Office (GAO) has studied the impact of workplace violence on healthcare workers. The preponderance of data is substantiated; and while workplace violence in healthcare settings is recognized, it is still not regulated.
