Welcome to UNISON’s Pride page

UNISON is the UK’s largest public service trade union.

Our 1.3 million members work in healthcare, local government, the community and voluntary sector, education, police support staffs and the utilities, delivering vital public services.

Trade unions exist to improve the working lives of their members. LGBT workers face harassment and discrimination. It’s hard to deal with on your own. UNISON works to:

  • stop harassment and discrimination
  • protect you at work
  • support you in claiming your rights
  • negotiate with employers
  • educate and train our members
  • campaign for equality
  • Join UNISON – a million voices for change
