The Organising & Recruitment Strategy Development project has analysed UNISON membership data in depth and the resulting report takes an unflinching look at our membership and activist levels and trends. The University of Sheffield Centre for Decent Work has undertaken an objective review of the sectors in which we organise, including anticipated changes that will impact UNISON members and potential members. Extensive engagement with activists and staff across the union has identified organising best practice and key lessons have been tested and evaluated in a series of unionwide organising pilot projects. At every stage, the NEC liaison subgroup has played a key role in the development of the goals and implementation actions.
The ORSD project report findings and recommendations were presented and unanimously endorsed at a meeting of the National Executive Council on 18 May 2023.
The national 2023 ‘Organising to Win’ plan aims to ensure adequate planning and resourcing of organising priorities to consolidate and sustain membership growth and to urgently begin to expand the workplace activist base.
Come along and hear about this exciting new strategy for UNISON.
