The future of your hard won skills, trades, professions and
associated terms and conditions of employment are facing an
unprecedented threat as some major M&E contractors threaten to
pull out of our national agreements. Unite shop stewards and
officers have launched a campaign to oppose these changes. Standing
together you can successfully defend our national agreements.
Unite needs you to get involved, four steps to keeping
construction agreements:
- Spread the word: Tell your colleagues about the threat to
collective agreements.
- Keep informed: Unite will put together information about
what the employers are planning, check back regularly on this site
for updates.
- Be prepared to fight for your agreements: Don’t let the
employers smash what has taken years to build. Make sure Unite has
your up to date details - talk to your rep or update your details
via MyUnite.
- Join Unite: Remember to encourage those not in the union
to join
Unite.
