Better Pay
Usdaw helps people at work by negotiating better pay and conditions. Every year Usdaw negotiates improvements to pay for hundreds of thousands of members.
Safer workplace
Research shows that workplaces with unions have far fewer accidents. With thousands of Health and Safety Reps, Usdaw makes sure that your safety at work is always a priority.
Advice & support
Thousands of Usdaw workplace reps advise and support you at work and are backed up by highly trained Usdaw Officials. Specialists in the fields of pensions, health and safety, education, management, wages and employment law are all on hand to help.
Better conditions
Holiday entitlement, good pension provision and arrangements for time off work are just some of the things Usdaw can improve. By negotiating with employers, Usdaw is able to make life at work better.
Protection at work
By ensuring that union members have strong and effective representation, Usdaw is able to protect people at work and help resolve issues before they become major problems. Usdaw ensures that members are aware of their rights in the workplace.
Fairness at work
Union workplaces are fairer workplaces and are much more likely to have family-friendly policies.
By negotiating with employers, unions are able to secure better deals for members on issues such as career opportunities, flexible working arrangements and general support for family responsibilities. In short, unions help you achieve a work-life balance without being penalised for it.
More job security
Usdaw works to protect jobs and deliver job security for members.
Without a union you are on your own if faced with change at work or redundancy.
Your voice
Usdaw gives you a strong voice at work. Without a union, you are less likely to have a say in your terms and conditions and how your employer operates.
