Challenging racism
 Yet, despite more than 30 years of legislation to outlaw race discrimination, Black workers of African, Asian and Caribbean heritage are still more likely than white colleagues to be disciplined at work, to experience harassment and to work in junior or temporary positions. The Race Relations (Amendment) Act 2000 has opened up new doors for Black workers, trade unionists and for UNISON to deliver equality. It’s up to all UNISON members – Black and white colleagues working together – to strive for race equality with UNISON supporting you all the way. We can make a difference. |
