Abstract
As part of a general production drive, the Trades Union Congress is inviting trade unionists to extend their knowledge of management in industry. Through its publicity organ Industrial News, the Congress has announced that it is co-operating with the National Institute of Industrial Psychology, the British Institute of Management, the Government Committee on Industrial Productivity and the Administrative Staff College in seeking ways to make workshops more happy and efficient places. Experiments are to be carried out on the problems of the effects of boredom in industry, the means of minimizing labour turnover and the training of new employees. The Trades Union Congress is asking members of trade unions to co-operate with these organisations by seeking goodwill for their officers at places suitable for experiment.
