Trade Unions
 |
You can join a trade union from the age of 16. Trade unions were formed to help protect workers from employers who treated them unfairly; they can also give advice if you get into trouble at work. There are different trade unions depending on the the type of work you do.
When you start work you may be asked to join a union but not employers recognise them. You can read more about trade unions by clicking on the links below.
