There are many jobs that require our labour around the club in order for the club to function; many of these are ‘behind the scene' currently being performed quietly by a few members.

An example of this is the current refurbishment of the club workshop, which has consumed a lot of labour hours to date with many more to go to reach completion. In addition there are some fairly simple jobs that require attendance to on a regular basis.

This workload should be shared by all. Therefore to make easier for all to see what work is required the club has decided to produce and maintain a Job List sheets detailing all jobs that are to be performed. Each job will be allocated an ‘owner' usually a committee member who will be responsible for organizing and coordinating all activities to ensure the job is completed.

The Job List will indicate the job, the work involved, estimated time to complete, items you may need to provide and ‘owner' contact details. The Job list will be on the GGC website and will be updated by an appointed person as jobs are completed and new works are required.

All members are encouraged to speak to the committee and suggest a job to be listed on the Job List.

Members are invited contact the job ‘owner' via email or phone to arrange a time to perform the job they would like to do.

Some jobs may only be an hour or two and can be performed on flying days after or before your flight. Some may require work over a number of days and it may be more suitable for these to be done outside the soaring season.

This system will keep everyone informed on what's to be done and give each member the opportunity to choose what work they would like to do and when they would like to do it.

The advantages of the proposed system are:

• One process for all types of work; simplification of the process;
• Ability to manage resources by the committee as all work items is always visible and easily accessible;
• Improved visibility and clarity of work items to all members;
• Betters utilisation of members time, no flying down time;
• Visibility of contributors;
• Public acknowledgement of the effort members make.

So have a look at the Jobs List and pick what you would like to do and contact the Job Owner now!

Thank you for your cooperation and we look forward to working with you soon!
