Join a union

middle_of_feb21_marchAll workers have the right to join a union if they so choose.

It is in your best interest to join one as research has shown that members within unionised workplaces receive better pay, conditions and benefits. As a result of union negotiations, members also receive above the minimum standards as set by Irish labour law.

Therefore joining a union is the best decision you can ever make as a worker. To find out more information about unions and what they can do for you please click the "All about unions" link on the left.

To apply for union membership, simply complete the application form below. The information you provide willl help us select the most appropriate union to represent you in your workplace.
