@shadowcanman The job market has been invaded.

Trade union members deserve better and thankfully they have a choice:

Our position, in plain terms. A union exists to hold employers to the law. Not to write the law. Not to pick a side in politics.

Where the law is contested we apply it as it stands, including the Supreme Court's April 2025 ruling and the EHRC Code. Members pay us to be in the room when it goes wrong for them, not to lobby about it.

@sharlewis58 Brilliant 🙏

You've already decided your rights matter.

You follow this account. You read the posts. You've looked up what your employer can and can't do.

You've done everything except the one thing that actually protects you.

Membership is the follow-through.

Many employers don't understand what the requirement for 'recognition' means.

There is no requirement for a trade union to be recognised for the purpose of representing individual workers in formal meetings. Individual workers have the legal right to be represented by the trade union of their choice and there's a specific claim to be had in the Employment Tribunal against employers that even threaten to not allow workers to exercise their right.

Trade unions only need to be recognised for the purpose of collective bargaining about for example pay or conditions. The trade union needs to have at least 10% of the affected group as members. And it is very hard for an employer to resist recognising a trade union.

@Trifleisking @SexMattersOrg Yes they can.

Women staff need to contact this trade union:

Agreed. Unions are acting outside their remit getting involved in politics. Thankfully there's a better way:

Yes we’re a real union and on the Certification Officer’s registered list. There’s no obligation for a union to be a member of the TUC. And we have never attacked trans people. What we do is apply the law. We opposed care workers being legally required to be vaccinated based on legal argument it was against their human rights, discriminatory, and beyond the power of parliament; the House of Lords said as much before the Regulations were repealed. And today we apply the law as set out in the Equality Act 2010 and Supreme Court ruling. Nothing more. Nothing less.

What if 5 million workers stood together?

Women can tackle this in the workplace by raising formal grievances. All our reps have law degrees:

@mindsci I’m sure what you’re referring to.

LAW SERIES 3
Some members believe sex is biological and unchangeable. Other members believe trans women are women. Both beliefs are protected in law, and both members pay the same subscription. We will never ask you what you believe before we take your case. A union that screens members by opinion has stopped being a union. We represent workers, and we start on the day you join.

All your suggestions have merit - the main thing is to be sustainable whilst helping as many people as we can - and it’s a fine balance because human nature dictates there’s a group of people that take advantage and there’s a group that really needs help and don’t have the money to pay - so listen - I hear you - and we always have the right to exercise discretion - which we do - because I’m a softy at heart or I wouldn’t be in this game - remembering that the main task is to keep the union viable and we can’t do that by behaving like a charity.
