What Delegates Do
Delegates serve as a vital link between our members and the RDA office. Their responsibilities include organizing RDA meetings, informing new employees about the benefits of RDA membership, and advocating for collective support. When appropriate, delegates also provide assistance to members with workplace issues and concerns.
Becoming A Delegate
Becoming a delegate is a rewarding opportunity that allows you to develop valuable skills such as negotiation, problem-solving, and advocacy. As a delegate, you’ll have the chance to make a real difference in the future of your profession by supporting colleagues and helping those who may need assistance in speaking out.
The delegate role is a learning journey, and we offer support every step of the way. The RDA office is always available to answer any questions you might have. We also host annual delegate training, where you can meet other delegates, learn about your employment rights, and gain the skills needed to help fellow members.
If you’re interested in becoming a delegate, we recommend having a face-to-face conversation with one of our current delegates to learn more about the role. Alternatively, you can reach out to the RDA office at ask@nzrda.org.nz for further information and resources about becoming a delegate.
