Description: | The papers in this series relate to the welfare and training of staff who worked for Goodyear and have been divided into two sections. The first section consists of records relating to the wages and benefits paid to employees at the Goodyear Tyre and Rubber Company (Great Britain) Limited factory at Wolverhampton, and includes reports and manuals providing information about rates of pay and working conditions during the 1930s; and other papers largely relating to various benefits available to those who worked for Goodyear during the post-war period up to the 1960s. The second section comprises training guides for sales representatives and other employees, mostly written for a North American audience, but likely to have been used in Britain also. These primarily date from the 1950s and 1960s, but also includes training guides for tyre and rubber courses run in the 1930s.
The personnel records from the 1930s in particular, provide detailed information about the kind of work done by workers in different departments in the Wolverhampton factory at the time, generated in the course of evaluations of work rates and time studies. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0/uk/ | Publisher: | Wolverhampton Archives | Rights holder: | Wolverhampton Archives | Temporal: | 1930-1971 | Source: | Black Country History | Identifier: | http://www.blackcountryhistory.org/colle... | Go to resource |
