Title: Research / Resource Unit Progress Report to the National Conference of 26-29 July 1999
Creator: Food and Allied Workers' Union
Date: 1999-07-26
Description: A progress report detailing the revitalisation of the FAWU Research/Resource Unit, which resumed operations in 1997 after a two-year closure (1995–1997). The report acknowledges a lack of internal research capacity to support bargaining structures and describes the contractual arrangement with the Labour Research Service (LRS) to provide senior-level supervision. It candidly discusses the "hiccups"—including financial constraints, limited staffing, and capacity gaps—that have hindered the unit’s goal of achieving full organizational independence.
