UNISON will advise you and help protect your rights if you face an issue at work which could threaten your job status, health and wellbeing or working environment.

 

Nearly all workers, regardless of the number of hours per week they work, have certain legal rights, particularly around leave. This section has information about many areas of leave, flexible working and time off for dependents.

 

Discrimination at work can be a serious issue: on the grounds of race, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, age or religion and belief. It may also involve bullying and harassment. UNISON campaigns and supports members to make sure everyone is treated fairly and equally at work.

 

UNISON believes health and safety in the workplace is an issue for everyone. Every year, thousands of people suffer accidents and ill-health at work - most of which could be avoided.

 

Pay is one of the main reasons why many of us go to work. And defending and improving members' pay is one of UNISON's main tasks. Find out more about the issues and what you are entitled to.

 

UNISON works to defend good pension schemes and improve and promote affordable, decent pensions for all our members, wherever you work.
