UrBC, Magnitogorsk, October 8, 2019. A professional forum for information officers working within Russia’s Mining & Metallurgical Trade Union took place in Nizhniy Novgorod recently. The event was attended by representatives of Magnitogorsk Iron & Steel Works (MMK), the company’s Information & PR Department reports.

A talk given by MMK Group Trade Union’s representative Alexei Babushkin, who presented a personalized trade union app, proved very engaging for the audience. The app developers are already prepared to offer the service to fellow trade unions.

‘Our innovative information project, the personalized mobile app for Russia’s Mining & Metallurgical Trade Union’s members, got launched within MMK Group around two years ago. The app is now very popular with the trade union members and is among the top-rated mobile apps among MMK’s metallurgical workers. This up-to-date nearly-instant feedback service is a breakthrough for Russia’s Mining & Metallurgical Trade Union overall. The app keeps you in the know of latest news, keeps you updated on all the available membership discounts, and provides answers to the most relevant and pressing questions. The trade union members post their questions and put forth different proposals on a daly basis,’ the company says.
