What is it?
The Stable Lads Association has recently been renamed the National Association of Stable Staff - it is your union. Strongly independent, they represent racing’s stable staff at all levels. They’re always working on your behalf to ensure fair pay and working conditions throughout the industry.

Every year, they renegotiate a Memorandum of Agreement with the National Trainers Federation, which sets out minimum standards for stable staff.  All full-time stable staff can become members of the Association. Phone 01283 211522 or email office@naoss.co.uk  to find out more about joining.

RIABS
The Racing Industry Accident Benefit Scheme is funded by Trainers and contributions from stable staff. The fund provides benefits following accidental injury, disablement or death in the course of employment. (This excludes any injury incurred whilst riding in a race.)
