đŸ’—Unions week

We are supporting the TUC Heart Unions campaign, which runs all this week. We often get asked what a union is and what do they do? So…….
Why Unions Matter.
  • The real difference a collective voice makes in shaping fair, supportive workplaces
  • A Union protects, empowers, and stands alongside colleagues through everyday challenges
  • The importance of having representation you can trust when you need it most
Why should I join?
  • Stronger voice at work
  • A union gives you collective power. Together, Advance members have far more influence over pay, conditions, and workplace decisions than any individual does alone.
  • Better pay and condition
  • Advance Union consistently negotiates higher wages, safer working conditions, fairer hours, and stronger benefits through collective bargaining

Protection and representation

  • If something goes wrong—disciplinary action, disputes, unfair treatment—you’re not on your own. Advance provides expert advice and formal representation
Job security and legal support
  • Trade unions understand employment law and help ensure your rights are protected, from contracts and redundancies to discrimination and unfair dismissal.
Money-saving benefits
  • Our extremely popular travel club can save you money on your next holiday plus will writing, high street savings plus lots more!
