The counter balance to corporate power in a globalised, just-in- time economy is to do exactly that, to bring our activists together to build an organisation within an ‘industrial hub’ that builds on our strengths and identifies opportunities to develop our organisation across employers in every sector of our economy. Unite is at the forefront of the Industrial Hubs programme, working with and taking the lead in the first global pilot projects with the International Transport Workers Federation (ITF) and IndustriALL global union federations. It is a programme that can be adapted to meet the challenges in all sectors of our union, across our transport, manufacturing and services groups Mapping supply chains, identifying ‘economic employers’, developing real solidarity between sectors and unions both here in the UK and across Europe, understanding vulnerabilities that can be exploited and developing a training programme that builds confidence, skills and capacity amongst our activists to both defend and advance the interests of working people. This is a fantastic cutting edge programme that we encourage you all to engage with and take ownership of.

  • Written Evidence Submitted by Unite the Union Coronavirus: Implications for Transport
    CIT0193 Written evidence submitted by Unite the Union Coronavirus: implications for transport This submission is made by Unite, the UK’s largest transport trade union and the UK’s largest and most diverse trade union with over one million members across all sectors of the economy including transport, manufacturing, financial services, food and agriculture, construction, energy and utilities, information technology, service industries, health, local government and the not for profit sector. Unite also organises in the community, enabling those who are not in employment to be part of our union. Unite is uniquely placed as the principal trade union across the full diversity of transport. We represent a quarter of a million workers in all areas of transport including buses, road haulage, logistics, civil aviation, rail, coach, taxi, tram, docks, ferries and waterways. We also represent the majority of union members in the transport vehicle building and automotive sectors and the aerospace aircraft sector. Unite’s response to the Transport Select Committee Inquiry is drawn from the recent months of intense experience in dealing with the impact of Covid19 on our members in transport : on their health and safety, their jobs, their pay and conditions, and their sector. This experience is unique, informed as it is from working across all modes of transport, with hundreds of thousands of workers and their representatives, with the diversity of employers, sector bodies and transport specialists, with Department for Transport and Treasury Officials, government Ministers, Shadow Ministers, Mayors, devolved governments and elected politicians at all levels. Please see also Unite’s Strategy for Transport “Transport Matters”.1 At the outset, we would make these 10 key points: 1.

We sent a full delegation and some visitors and I went along as the regional representative on the national Standing Orders Committee (SOC - the committee which arranges the conference business).

And last, but not least, Sheila’s husband Chris came along for the ride. George kicked us off at the LGC on the Sunday with a challenge from the microphone over our motion on Fighting Local Authority Cuts being disallowed from the agenda. Conference voted to refer the issue back to the Local Government SOC and George went to see them with our regional rep, Mark, to argue our corner. Unfortunately, they stuck to their position that our motion could bring the union into legal jeopardy so it didn’t get on. Helen was next – on the first day of NDC she got up to question why the union was not challenging Labour Councils who are implementing cuts and why we were not pushing a strategy of non- compliance with the cuts.

  • Annual Report 2017 Marked the End of the 2012 Congress Mandate and a Significant Period of Challenge for PSI Affiliates and Rebuilding for PSI
    PUBLIC SERVICES INTERNATIONAL The global union federation of workers in public services ENGLISH Annual Report 2017 marked the end of the 2012 congress mandate and a significant period of challenge for PSI affiliates and rebuilding for PSI. ver the period of the mandate, Opublic sector un- ions and workers have faced grave challenges. The burden of austerity has continued, our trade union rights have come under attack, the extreme right has grown, and we have seen the demoniza- tion of women, migrants and vulnerable groups. But we have also seen opportunities unfold – the rising awareness of the failures of neoliber- INTRODUCTION alism, growing evidence of the failures of privati- sation and demands for something better and radically different. To meet these challenges and use these opportuni- ties, PSI has increased its work in a range of prior- ity areas; invested in its communications capaci- ty; continued to build its project work; established sectoral networks, and increased our research and publications. INTRODUCTION 2 PUBLIC SERVICES INTERNATIONAL ANNUAL REPORT 2017 3 PSI has been an active player in the global wave of re-municipal- isations; our efforts contributed to the ratification of ILO Conven- tion 151 in the Philippines and the recognition of health sector union NAHWUL in Liberia after a four-year campaign. Our work ensured that the UN Commission on Health Employ- ment and Economic Growth (ComHEEG) did not endorse PPPs as a means for addressing the projected shortfall of 18 million health workers globally by 2030, but rather committed to further investment in public health. We also contributed to halting trade agreements, such as the Trade in Services Agreement (TiSA) and to the creation of a new political discourse on tax via the estab- lishment of the Independent Commission on the Reform of Inter- national Corporate Taxation (ICRICT).
