PAUSE FOR THOUGHT

Jon Lees Special Report on the potential stable staff crisis as trainers report they have never been so stretched as during the last 12 months. " Pages 10-11.

"Liquorise Allsorts” of Every Size and Colour,
 Like Stable Staff.
 
JMC: Taking a closer look at male British government’s “Stud and Stable Staff” header.
 
British bloodhorse illiterate male government chose to provide this “STUD AND STABLE STAFF” title. But what government have failed to do over the last seven decades is identify what sort of “Stud and Stable Staff" … "

 “Stud and Stable Staff” are likened here by government to a large bag of “Liquorise Allsorts.” “Liquorise Allsorts” of every size and colour, as come the range, span of totally different “Stud and Stable Staff” abilities.

 
Political, legal, financial, racecourse and horseracing government and their fraudulent
 “ Minimum Wage Bracket”
"Minimum Wage"  a handy cheap government tool. The Tory politicians need to put themselves on their "Minimum Wage ".



Get your own Racing Post today especially if you only get the government's dark age " Minimum Wage." Tory government are always telling us: "We are all in this together". Just another Tory government lie.

TRAINER TEAM – PROFESSIONAL BLOODHORSE LITERATE HANDLER-RIDER FEES - WAGES WHERE ARE THEY?

GROUP 1 TOP PROFESSIONAL HANDLER- RIDERS?

GROUP 2 PROFESSIONAL HANDLER -RIDERS?

GROUP 3 THOSE WHO HAVE COMPLETED GROUP 4 HANDLER –RIDERS AIM TO BECOME BLOODHORSE LITERATE ACHIEVERS?

GROUP 4 LEARNER STUDENT HANDLER RIDERS?
 
JMC: There has to be an honest clear fee wage structure, according to skills achieved , just as there has to be an honest clear "True Bloodhorse Literate Career Structure." None of this applies at present, due to "Government's wicked dishonest working practices which have been going on every day over the last seven decades, handicapping and confusing the young ones attempting to make a career in horseracing.

JMC: British political, legal, accountancy, racecourse and horseracing Tory government, out of touch, out of tune,  with 80 percent of the British people all of the time. This country is being run by the rich, to suit only the rich, left ongoing over the last seven decades.

UNSTABLE
SPECIAL REPORT 
Published in the Racing Post on Thursday July 23. Pages 10-11.

"JON LEES on the potential stable staff crisis as trainers report they have never been so stretched as during the last 12 months.
 

“A TINY budget to deal with a growing crisis. Racing’s stable staff shortage, painfully exposed this week by the struggle of champion trainer Paul Nicholls to fill vacancies, is the sledgehammer being used to crack a nut.
 

“As many as 1,000 vacancies could be the true measure of the shortfall facing the sport at a time when racing’s budget for recruitment is £43,000.00.
 

“Increasingly, regardless of the employer, trainers have found there simply are not enough skilled or motivated men or women wanting to work in racing yards. Those who do want to, find themselves working harder on uncompetitive wages with precious little time off as trainers seek short-term solutions.
 
 
“The suggestion this week that former members of the armed forces have been identified as potential recruits typifies the extremes to which the sport’s guardians are reaching that is before the ambition  for 1,000more horses in training by 2020 is added to the mix.
 

“Crisis point is being reached chiefly in the wake of a Home Office ruling putting a stop to a scheme that allows stables to fill an acknowledged skill gap with work-riders sourced from outside the EU.
 

“Steps are being taken to tackle the issue, however. Talks this week are expected to lead to an agreement between the Tory government, and horseracing government (BHA) “ substantial” investment for the sport.
 

“We are in the final stages of securing funding from the foundation for a major new program focused on workforce development, “ said government media manager Robin Mounsey.

*


“In terms of staff members there is a definite requirement  for skilled staff, in particular riders, to be available in greater numbers than currently, and therefore we, as an industry, need to explore all avenues for recruiting the right people into racing.

 
“It is not all bad news – there does remain a steady stream of new staff to the industry. For example the British Racing School is already entirely full since March 2016, so the building blocks are there for us to rebuild a sizeable and skilled workforce if we can further enhance our recruitment strategies and better our staff retention rates.
 
“This is not a quick fix, but rather developing and implementing together a strategy for the long-term, sustainable improvement. For  too long, we have perhaps relied on a new stream of foreign workers, many of whom can no longer work here under tightened immigration policies We need to work on a sustainable solution for the long term.
 
“A three – year strategy is in with the objectives of targeting workers with the right skills, particularly riders, and also improving the existing workforce’s skills base by providing trainers and  opportunities to develop a career.
 
“In coordination with the National Trainer Federation,  National Association of  Stable Staff (Nass), and Jockeys Employment Training Scheme (Jets) and other training providers, efforts are under way to promote racing as a career in equine colleges, schools and among ex-servicemen and women who even if unable to ride could fill the roles of yardmen or women, enabling those who can ride to specialise more.
The government (BHA)  has recruited a welfare development manager, Matt Mancini, to provide extra support for staff and manage pilot schemes  designed to give stable workers an opportunity to enhance their skills and usefulness.
“Intriguingly, what emerges from the training ranks is that one offshoot of the government energy seems to have been a loss of rigour among trainers: Government (NTF) chief executive Rupert Arnold accepts his members have become too reliant on the government to take a lead role on recruitment policy."
