UNISON's objectives
UNISON is a powerful voice for working people in Britain. In the workplace, through our campaigning work, and in our input to decision-making inside the Labour Party, the union expresses the democratically agreed views of members.

These views - our objectives - are agreed at UNISON's annual delegate conference.
