Unite representatives in the workplace
All aspects of working life
should be the subject of discussion and agreement between employers
and the representatives of the trade union to which their employees
belong. Unite representatives in the workplace are the key to
this process.
Unite representatives are elected
by the members that they represent. It's their job to ensure that
Unite members have access to all the help, information and guidance
they need regarding issues such as working conditions, pay, health
and safety, equal opportunities and employment law. They liaise
between members, colleagues, their employers and the Union to
ensure that our members' interests are served.
Workplace representatives are
supported by a network of professional regional officers located
throughout the UK and Ireland. These officials provide support,
encouragement and advice to them in all aspects of their work.
Regional Officers are their link to the specialist services
provided by Unite Head Office Departments such as Communications,
Research, Legal and Health and Safety.
