Please make sure your details are correct during these difficult times.



During these unusual times Oxford City Branch of UNISON will be keeping you up-to-date via email only and to make sure we comply with the GDPR laws this is done via the UNISON WARMS systems (Web Access RMS) only 

If during the last two weeks if you have not received any emails from us it maybe because your details are out of date or you do not have an up to date email address logged on the system, to simply resolve this you can go online at  https://www.unison.org.uk/my-unison/ this site allows you to manage and update your own personal details or you can send us a valid email address to office@oxfordcityunison.com and we can update it for you. 

Sadly during these times and to support our comrades in the post room and at Royal Mail, it is not possible to post letters out to you

Covid-19 - guidance for UNISON members

UNISON has been working with the relevant government departments to help ensure public services and public service workers are prepared and equipped to deal with Covid-19, commonly referred to as coronavirus.

Guidance for hospitals and NHS staff was published this week by NHS employers, UNISON, and other health unions. The aim of this is to ensure staff know exactly what to do with individuals who are concerned they have the virus and how to treat patients, with minimal risk to themselves. The guidance also seeks to reassure both health employees and the public, alerting everyone to be vigilant to prevent the wider spread of the virus.

Advice has also been issued by the Department for Education for schools and school workers. UNISON has issued additional advice for branches and activists should you become aware of any schools closed following suspected instances of Covid-19.

These sensible contingency plans will help reassure staff and the public that public services are fully prepared for any eventuality. Encouraging individuals to take everyday precautions is essential. But so is the need not to panic or feel unduly alarmed. Being fully prepared now could make the world of difference later.

Advice for anyone concerned they have developed symptoms of Covid-19 can be found on the NHS website.
As more advice becomes available for other areas, we will do all we can to make sure branches and activists have the information they need to respond to this fast moving situation.
