Welcome to the home page of Unite @ HP
If all employers shared the values of Bill Hewlett and Dave
Packard, unions would add very little value for employees…
Did you know that Mark Hurd, Ann Livermore, Marcela Perez de
Alonso and Randy Mott are members of Unite? Just kidding! If they
were, your base salary would have kept up with inflation, your
pension rights would not have been eroded, there would be no
compulsory redundancies and there would still be a transparent and
fair employee profit-share at HP.
The aim of Unite @ HP is to get you the best terms and
conditions of employment and to provide the advice and support you
may need on any work-related matter.
Unite, the largest private sector union in the UK, is based on
local democracy and support for the individual member. It has a
proven track record in campaigning and legal successes.
HP UK Management have a legal duty to consult with your employee
representatives. But because your reps currently have no bargaining
power, Mark Hurd and Randy Mott know that the UK employees are an
easier target for cost-cutting measures than employees in other
European countries where union membership is higher and unions are
recognised by HP. Unite already has a large and growing number of
members in HP UK (your membership is kept anonymous), and it is
already recognised in parts of EDS. Join us now and you will
immediately get union support as an individual. If a large enough
number of HP employees join, we can legally obtain bargaining power
to defend your salary and your pension. We will always act
responsibly, getting a fair deal for HP employees which is easily
affordable without harming the company’s success.
Someone, somewhere is always working to improve the working
lives of Unite members.
Unite @ HP is working to improve yours.
It really is in your best interests to be a member. Together we
can win a better deal at HP.
LET’S DO IT with Unite @ HP!
Pay cuts
HP/EDS has proposed that employees in the UK and
worldwide should have their pay cut by up to 5%, and higher for
business leaders. Read the following Unite updates on this and
other matters
