Members’ views and opinions are important to us and can help shape and improve our services and the way we work
Here are just a few examples of how we’ve acted on what you’ve told us:
You said
Can you make it easier to recruit new reps in our workplace?
We did
The CSP created a hub containing all the resources our stewards need to recruit new workplace reps.
CSP members considering becoming a steward or safety rep can register here on the recruitment hub.
You said
vPUK is not accessible to delegates with a hearing impairment
We did
We captioned all requested pre-recorded presentations for the conference and captioned all post-conference recordings. We also added the captions manually to ensure accuracy. A British Sign Language interpreter was also in attendance for the live keynote speeches, as well as for the session presented by co-convenors of the DisAbility Network.
You said
Members employed by private sector organisations want to be able to discuss their working conditions across multiple workplaces
We did
A new iCSP network has been created for members working with Connect Health. Contact jointheteam@csp.org.uk for joining details.
You said
Work on education, training and career progression opportunities is needed for physiotherapy support workers in Scotland are inadequate.
We did
We explored the issues, surveyed and talked to members and have developed and produced a clear position about changes we would like to see. We are using this to ask policy makers in Scotland to review and improve the situation for physiotherapy support workers.
You said
We need more student reps in our CSP regional networks
We did
We promoted the value of being part of a CSP regional network with local students. This resulted in more students becoming involved, particularly assisting with member engagement on social media. The South Central regional network alone recruited seven students to the team.
You said
CSP reps need an expanded workplace team within University Hospitals of Morecambe Bay NHS Trust, to best support members employed there
We did
The CSP’s organisers recruited six new stewards and safety reps for the trust. Find out more at here on our 'Organising and campaigning on workplace issues page'
