Trade unions are groups of working people who join together to defend and improve their working conditions.
Trade unions believe that ‘unity is strength’, because it is by standing together and speaking with one voice that unions can fight and win for members.
Trade unions are democratic, member-led bodies, grounded in the workplace, with reps elected to fight for members at work, and represent them in the union. The union’s priorities, campaigns and policies are decided by members and elected reps through each union’s individual structures.
