Fighting redundancies
Hard working men and women across the country are being made redundant due to the greed of the already rich, and a boom based on excess credit. We are witnessing a wave of redundancies across every type of council and in every region.
Care workers, teaching assistants, benefits clerks, housing workers and thousands of others who have spent years supporting local communities, are now facing an uncertain future.
Greater demands are being made on local services during the recession. More, not fewer, local government workers are needed.
Local government finances are not as bad as they are made out to be by the media or the employers. There are alternatives to the pain of losing your job - we need to make them.
Job security has become the top priority for our members - they need UNISON's support more than ever.
It's time to start fighting back.

Fighting redundancies
Facing redundancies in your workplace, or negotiating to prevent redundancies? "Behind every redundancy is a cut in services, often to the most vulnerable people in the community. Involve service users, charities and campaign groups when you fight cuts and redundancies." Brian Walter  Your comments
