The National Working Rules, within the JIB Handbook, act as a comprehensive set of terms & conditions of employment adopted by all JIB company members, as a condition of membership, that apply to directly employed operatives and apprentices. The JIB Handbook also acts as an invaluable guide, providing best practice in other areas as well as highlighting areas of employment law that need to be met.
The Rules provide a clear definition for company members and operatives, covering all the key aspects of employment in the electrical contracting environment, which can cause uncertainty, unrest and disputes in non JIB member companies.
If you have any questions or need guidance regarding the terms and procedures under the National Working Rules, contact ir@jib.org.uk or call 01322 661600 and select Industrial Relations/Terms and Conditions.

Redundancy Support
In our brief guide to redundancy, the JIB provides an overview of the main provisions of the legislation covering redundancy. The information provides some initial guidance but should not be regarded as a legal interpretation. Download the brief guide here.
There is also further guidance on redundancy procedures contained within Section 6 of the JIB Handbook.
