European Health & Safety Week 2011 - Campaign on Safe Maintenance
No one should be put at unnecessary risk at work. UNISON believes that work related deaths, injuries, ill-health, and "accidents" are not acceptable.Your employer has a responsibility to ensure that your work does not cause you harm. Not only is it the right thing to do - it's the law.Sickness absence
UNISON is committed to fighting for sickness absence agreements that are fair, non discriminatory and compassionate.Workers Memorial Day - Cuts Cost Lives
Remember the dead and fight for the living on International Workers Memorial Day (IWMD), by joining UNISON in one minutes' silence at 12 midday on Thursday 28 April 2011. UNISON believes that there needs to be a cultural change in the way work related deaths, injuries, and ill-health are viewed. They are not just part of the job, or just unfortunate. In most cases they are also avoidable. However, spending cuts are likely to increase the risks to workers health and safety. IWMD should therefore be used to campaign, organise, and recruit on health and safety at branch level. Unions make work safer, and make it most safe when there is a large, active, and involved membership.Bullying & harassment
Ban bullying. That is the simple message of UNISON's campaign to ban bullying in the workplace.< Back | More >
