Specialist Skills

This Conference instructs the Executive Council, with the FBU Workforce Development Group, to survey every brigade to investigate what specialist skills or roles, as identified by local IRMPs/RRPs, are being carried out and if these roles are agreed locally as being inside or outside of NJC agreed rolemaps and if they attract an Additional Responsibility Allowance and if so the value of that allowance. This information should be circulated to brigade officials in the form of guidance to assist in local consultation and negotiation of specialist skills or roles. This guidance is to be produced and sent to brigade officials by Conference 2011.
