Unite the Union

Unite is the union for the 21st century, meeting the greatest challenges facing working people today. It is a democratic and campaigning union, which fights back for employees in the workplace, protects workers' rights and takes trade unionism out to millions of unorganised workers.

It is a union that stands up for equality and advances members' interests on a political and national level. Unite is also active on a global scale building ever stronger links with trade unions around the world to confront the challenges of our globalised economy.

General Secretary message

Sharon Graham
Unite General Secretary

It is a great privilege to be elected as your General Secretary, on a clear mandate for positive change.

Unite members face a critical time. Many employers are emboldened, tactics such as "Fire and Rehire" are becoming increasingly common, jobs are under threat and pay rates are under attack.

I have been elected to do what it says on the trade union tin - fight for jobs, pay and conditions. Now is the time to build strong, effective trade unionism at every workplace.

The pledges made in my election manifesto will be delivered. The task of delivering on that begins immediately.

Visions and goals

A fighting back union, winning in the workplace

A campaigning union, making our voice heard

A growing union, organising for strength

A members' union, open and democratic

A united and tolerant union, which treats people with dignity and respect

A progressive union, a force for a fairer society
