Island Locks - Locksmith Courses - Lock Picking - Lock Opening - Locksmith Tools

Hello all Forum Members

We all know the problems involved with the main Locksmith associations eg for profit organisations membership only open to those who have gone through their training, one way of stopping these problems and moving closer to gaining credibility with not only our customers but government and other interested parties would be to start our own locksmith union.

Not only would it be legal but would ensure that its members subscriptions are dealt with properly and would ensure that its leaders are democratically voted in.

Unions have a voice and not only defend employment rights but provide educational needs, I personally think this would be a good way to sort out the industry, im not sure how to start one but would be certainly willing to find out what are the thoughts of others?

all the Best

@Derek due to peoples self interests I think you would again end up with splinter groups/associations and Unions.

derek this is already in the pipe line, a strong feeling within the forum, please read the threads on the association as there is clear guidance within.

I belong to a union at work and look what happened to B.A TFL all they want to ndo is cause maximum disruption cause firms to lose thousands.afaor what?I used to be a union rep years ago i dropped them like a hot potato.Same as the one im in know.Nothing gets sorted i had major issues with a chargehand at work and one of our area managers because he is a mason it got swept under the carpet.
