YOUR UNISON BRANCH


WE NEED YOU TO BECOME MORE ACTIVE!

UNISON is Britain`s largest trade union and has the most members within Wokingham District Council – which gives us a strong voice.

We are continuing to represent your interests as previously to Corporate Management and elected members, whilst seeking to protect your terms and conditions of employment.

With the current situation in Wokingham District Council, we want stewards and safety representatives in every workplace to develop a lively and vibrant Branch.  Time off and free training on employment law and health and safety is available to all who step forward. If interested, discuss this with your UNISON colleagues and ask them to elect you on the nomination form. Once elected, please let Malcolm Lee and Paul Bee know, so that we can notify your manager and also UNISON Regional Office. If you need further information, then please do not hesitate to ask Malcolm, Paul or another Branch Officer or trade union representative listed below.

We will be putting out regular newsletters which will be posted on our website to keep you informed. There are many issues out there that require a strong UNISON Branch. We will, with you, provide the strength required.

nSome pictures from the strike action

 

UNISON represents staff working for Wokingham BoroughCouncil, including those in schools and at other sites as well as those working at Shute End and at other sites in Wokingham. People employed in areas providing services to the public whether in the public, private or voluntary sectors of the economy may join UNISON. We negotiate for better pay and conditions, help individuals in trouble and campaign for a safer, fairer society.

UNISON is Britain's biggest union, representing almost 1.3 million people across the UK's public services.

Pay update!

UNISON won a 2.9 percent annual pay deal for council staff, effective from 1 April 2006 and a 2.475 percent award from April 2007. The Government want next years pay rise to be under 2.0 percent. Would 6.0 percent be better? To find out more, click here.

Branch elections

All the branch officer posts and stewards are elected at the Annual General Meeting in March and therefore we are currently on the lookout for people to stand for all these posts. For nomination and election details contact your steward or click here.
