The banner of Westminster UNISON allows you to voice your workplace concerns without the fear of victimisation or reprisal. A collective voice is always far more effective than acting individually and produces positive changes to workplace conditions. Management recognise the benefits of having a unionised workplace as very often our input leads to more effective reorganisations, policies and grievance resolutions.
The Branch Executive is made up of elected officers who oversee and steer the policy and objectives of the union. The Branch Executive members provide one of the main sources of advice and support and are the most important link between the union and members like yourself. Elections for these positions take place annually between January and Febrary.
A UNISON steward is an elected rep who helps organise, recruit and represent members in their workplace.
