4.2.14

Make today DD-day

The government is seeking to end the decades old practice of collecting your monthly union subscriptions directly from your salary. This means that your union’s ability to represent you is under threat.

So we need you to do something very simple but very important – switch payment of your subs to direct debit using the editable .pdf form here or printing it off and using it. It can be returned by post, or you can phone or even email and request a call back. More details here.

Switching is easy and it will mean that if your employer imposes any changes to how your subs are collected, you will remain protected by your union membership.

We won’t process your direct debit form unless your employer stops deducting your union subscriptions, so there’s no danger of you paying twice.

Not content with cutting jobs, pay and pensions, Tory ministers are now trying to undermine us. There’s never been a more important time to have the support of a union behind you.
