Workers of the World Unite in 2016

Banksy says it all!

Stop the Trade Union Bill - Week of Action 8th to 14th February 2016

8th to 14th February 2016

The TUC have organised a week of action to raise awareness of the impact of the Trade Union Bill, which is currently going through the House of Lords.

The heartunions week of action celebrates the great work done by union reps and members in our workplaces and in society. We're proud of our unions and reject the government's attempts to damage them with the trade union bill.

North Somerset UNISON members will be on Weston High Street on 11th February between 12 and 2 talking to members of the public about trade unions. We will also be running an information stall for council staff in the canteen at Castlewood at lunch time on 10th February, and taking part in the Big Workplace Meeting on 9th February.
