Dear collegues !
Let us introduce The Labour Confederation of St.Petersburg and Leningrad
Region (LC SPb) - the interregion union of free trade-unions of
St.Petersburg and Leningrad Region.
LC SPb is a member organization of The Labour Confederation of Russia which
unites the largest free trade-unions of Russia and its regions: seamen and
sailors, dockers, aircraft controllers, pilots, railway workers, etc.
The delegates from 13 free trade-unions of St.Petersburg and Leningrad
Region took part in the constituent assembly of LC SPb which took place on
Jule 8, 1995. Today LC SPb unites 35 free trade-unions. It is one of the
largest union of trade-unions of St.Petersburg and Leningrad Region. Also,
LC SPb is a member of the St.Petersburg Region Tripartite commission on
regulation of social-labour relations.
LC SPb makes its activity on the principle of independence from state and
employers and also on the principle of equality of rights and cooperation
with all organizations that, not only in words but also in reality,
fulfill programs of defence of interests of hired labour.
The main tasks of LC SPb are:
- the defence of human dignity, civil, social and labour rights of hired
workers;
- taking part in forming social-economic programs and making special
tariff and Region agreements;
- consulting and support of its members, help in making collective
agreements and individual contracts;
- help in development, unity and structure of free trade-unions in
Nord-West Region and in Russia.
In February 1997 the Information Center "SST" was established to support
information, publishing and training activity. Now The Information Centre
"SST" issues the newsletter "NERV" ("The independent working bulletin"),
methodological manuals on trade-union subjects and organizes training
seminars for trade-union workers.
We conduct the following projects:
1. Creation of conditions for protection of the rights of the unemployed,
2. Creation of the telecommunication centre of trade unions,
3. Creation of the centre of social partnership,
4. Perfection of system of vocational training
5. Creation of the educational centre of trade unions, etc.
We can give more detailed information and are ready to discuss conditions
of possible cooperation.
We'll be glad to cooperate with your organization and should be grateful
for information about it.
Yours sincerely,
Anatoly V. Savitch
Deputy Chairman of LC SPb
