What is a union?
Members of a union can often enjoy benefits that can only be obtained when negotiating as a collective.
There are many unions that support students and look out for the fair treatment of their members.
A union is an organisation made up of people working in a particular industry, for example, teachers in public schools, or retail workers, or hospitality workers. The union represents the interests of its members, mainly through negotiating pay and conditions at work, but also assisting with resolving disputes, or in other matters which the members of the union decide.
