Black History Month

Latest update - October 2010

• Tell it like it is questionnaire - Black workers must be treated fairly in the workplace. Unite the union works to promote race equality and tackle race discrimination. We would like black workers to complete this survey and “Tell it like it is”  by letting Unite know their top issue your union can work to make a difference

Black History Month is held every October in Britain. The aims are to:

• Promote knowledge of Black History and experience
• Disseminate information on positive Black contributions to British Society
• Heighten the confidence and awareness of Black people in their cultural heritage

There is still much to do in this country to achieve equality for Black and minority ethnic people (BME).  Many are still facing persistent disadvantage, discrimination and bullying and harassment at work.  So use October as the month to promote Black history and race equality at work.
