In addition to the trade union official, there are also trade union consultants in the University of Groningen. A trade union consultant is a managing memeber who has followed certified training and is available to assist colleagues with work-related questions or problems.
The trade union consultants in the University of Groningen are Jaap Bos, Hans van Gestel, Maarten Goldberg and Sander van den Bos. You can reach them via the FNV mailaddress: fnv@rug.nl, or you can approach them directly.
Do the trade union consultants help anyone?
If you are not a member of the FNV, you can approach the trade union consultant with your question. In such case you can have one advisory meeting (members can have more than one advisory meeting).
