The Central Arbitration Committee (CAC) – the referee in trade union disputes – is beefing up its ranks ahead of the implementation of the Employment Rights Bill, with five deputy chair roles now available for ambitious socialists who fancy “adjudicating on the recognition and de-recognition of trade unions for collective bargaining“.
