unionisation

Labour experts and veteran trade union leaders describe the lack of unionisation as the singular factor responsible for poor work conditions, and believe that without organising and exercising the right to collective bargaining, labour will remain vulnerable.

Recalling that the union has been on the fight to unionise Chevron for a long time, the letter noted that: 'Reference is made to a tripartite meeting held on Thursday 24th November, 2016 between the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA), Maritime Workers Union of Nigeria (MWUN) and your management at the NIMASA Zonal office , Warri, Delta state where your management was mandated to submit to NIMASA and the union, the comprehensive list of all maritime companies providing you with marine services for the purpose of unionisation of their employees'.

Harre said the campaign would be successful, if the voices of nurses and caregivers were heard, and if unionisation improved.

This was years before unionisation started, so Wales will never have a separate Parliament.

On February 18th 1997, the employees of the franchise in St-Hubert, a Montreal suburb, filed their request for unionisation with the Teamsters, an affiliate of the 480 000 members strong Quebec Federation of Labour (QFL).

The number of strikes organised in France may give the impression that the trade union movement is robust in this nation, but the rate of unionisation has fallen by 31.2% to give the lowest rate in the West (9.1%).

The unionisation ballot was 53 votes short of the minimum needed, with 320 of the 744 participating employees voting in favour of having the union represent them.
