The most important tools that UNISON has to ensure the health, safety and welfare of our members are our health and safety representatives, safety officers and safety committees. Our Health and Safety reps play a vital role in the union.
We believe that all workers deserve to be treated fairly at work. This includes well managed health and safety conditions.
Every worker has the right to leave work at the end of their shift, in as good or better physical, emotional and mental condition as when they arrived.
Through our work we strive to support our members at work and work with employers to minimising safety risk, harm and accidents.
