Description | Trade unions exist to help with problems at work. This can include making sure you are paid properly for all the hours you work and on time. They can also help with negotiating flexible working or other supports if you have caring responsibilities or problems with your health. They work to ensure everyone is treated fairly, regardless of gender, race, whether you are disabled or what age you are. Trade unions are champions of safe working practices. They provide practical advice and if necessary legal advice. Some unions can assist with financial grants and access to training. |
