Administrative / biographical background: |
The Manpower and Productivity Service Division concerned itself with general manpower policy matters, including personnel management in industry, and negotiations in the areas of railways, docks, shipping and shipbuilding, and printing industries. It also supported the work of inquiries into labour-only subcontracting in the construction industry, and supplied information and advice on manpower aspects of employment. Following re-organisation in 1974, these functions were transferred to the Manpower General Division (responsible for the establishment of the Manpower Services Commission), except for its negotiatory function which passed to the newly-created Advisory, Conciliation and Arbitration Service. |
