When will I be eligible for assistance with a workplace issue?
A member is entitled to receive free legal assistance in accordance with UNISON Rule K, providing s/he has been in membership of the union for at least four weeks prior to the incident or occurrence that leads to her/him seeking legal assistance from the union. For the purpose of administering this rule membership starts from the date upon which the member’s completed application form is received by a branch or regional office (recorded as the “entered office date” on the membership register). Generally, UNISON will not provide representative support in respect of issues that occur with the first four weeks of membership or which pre-date the member joining. However, in respect of members who join and bring an equal pay claim as part of UNISON’s mass litigation process, the NEC has waived the qualifying period. The four week rule will continue to apply to these members for all other services.
