News in brief

The Annual General Meeting of the Archaeologists' Branch of Prospect will take place at 11.30am on 22 January at Prospect House, 75-79 York Road, London, SE1. Lord Rupert Redesdale will be one of the speakers and all members of the branch are welcome. The union is also compiling a report on accommodation supplied by employers on 'away sites'. As well as poor pay and conditions, poor accommodation is 'an additional cause of occupational stress' says the branch's Health and Safety Officer.
