One of the most important functions of the AGM is to elect officials to lead the branch for the year ahead. A whole range of different jobs are available in the branch, and each one of them carries a really important set of responsibilities. Whether you’re face to face with managers in negotiations, representing members in a disciplinary, or helping members with a welfare claim – all are necessary to create an effective union team. 

At the AGM, branch members do the following: 

  • Ratify the election of Branch Officers
  • Ratify the election of stewards.
  • Elect delegates to UNISON’s National and Local Government conferences
  • Vote on motions
  • Every person who attends and books their place via this ticket source link will be automatically entered into a free raffle.

 

Please let your line manager know if you wish to attend the AGM as soon as possible.  You are entitled to paid time off to attend the AGM (up to one hour) and reasonable time off for travel to and from the meeting.
