Organising continues for International Workers Memorial Day

Organising for International Workers’ Memorial Day continues across UNISON, with increasing reports of regional and branch events, and heavy demand for UNISON materials.

We’ve already distributed 1,000 flags and 3,500 UNISON posters for the day itself. But it’s not too late to order your posters and other materials.

Due to high demand we are printing a second run of posters and details of how to order are at the bottom of this article.

The union’s International Workers’ Memorial Day leaflet is now also available – see below.

Make sure you have enough to give on the lead up to and on the day. The leaflet is certainly a must have if you are organising an event or any activities for the day.

Make sure you do something to ‘remember the dead and fight for the living’ on International Workers’ Memorial Day.

Join our campaign against the race to the bottom – your health and safety is worth it.
