Fact Service (June 2015)

Issue 23

Facility time guide

As a part of its continuing efforts to help branches and regions fight facility time cuts — and cope following a cut — the public service union UNISON has published a revised guide to facility time, with substantial additions. 

A short factsheet has also been produced to accompany this guide. It introduces some of the key sources of funding available to branches. Branches are urged to read this factsheet, and carefully consider the options available when facility time is cut.

Union branches across the UK continue to have their facility time threatened and cut, and with the election of the Conservative majority government these attacks are expected get worse.
