London.-Progress is being made, at
a significantly rapid pace, in the estab-
lishment of joint Production Commit
tees in British factories. The speed
with which these worker management
committees are being set up is due to
frank recognition on the part of EN-
plOyers that such bodies will contribute
to the improvement of industrial rela-
tions and what is of equal Importance
at this time, will assist to increase
output and raise the level of efficiency
in the workshops.
How effectively Il Works Committee
can be organized when management
and workers cooperate in the spirit OF
the agreement is well illustrated in
the case of one very large plant pro-
ducing aircraft. The Government itself
considers this case to be so helpful
that it has publiciZed it in one of the
monthly publications of the Ministry
of Labor, circulating amongst manage
ments and employers.
Management's Willing Lead
The first step in the creation OF 4
Works Committee in this plant was
taken by the mana agement 1t posted an
announcement setting forth the terms
of the agreement between the Trade
Unions and the Engineering Employers
Federation and stating the arrange
ments that would be made for a ballot
of works representatives on the joint
committee 1t was explained that the
management and the Union representa-
tiveS in the plant had agreed that the
Works Committee should consist of
ten workers representatives and not
more than ten from the management.
Conditions which would govern the
nomination of workers representatives
were clearly stated in the announce
ment namely, that each nominee (man
or wOman) must be a member of a
Trade Union, over 2l years of age, and
with not less than two years con-
tinuouS service with the company, in
the case of male nominee, and of one
year in the case of a female.
When the nominations were in, a
poster was displayed throughout the
plant calling on the workers to ballot
and telling them plainly that 100 per
cent production was the object in view.
1t gave details of the nominees with
their clock numbers for each Of the
eight zones into which the works had
been divided and particularly of the
time and place of the poll.
Before that date each employee re-
ceived letter signed by the director
of the company urging him to give
