Care workers, join the union that cares for you!

UVW fights for care workers to get fair wages, sick pay and dignity at work. Join UVW today.

You deserve dignity, EQUALITY AND respect

Are you fed up with feeling exhausted, underpaid, or unsupported? UVW was the first union to organise a care workers’ strike during the coronavirus pandemic.

Many care workers are stuck on zero-hours contracts, paid less than they deserve and given impossible workloads.

But you don’t have to accept this and if you want to fight for better wages and conditions, join the UVW union today.

TOGETHER WE CAN WIN!

Through legal and industrial action, UVW has won big for members in pay rises, by saving jobs, recovering stolen wages, winning compensation for injuries and discrimination and fighting unfair treatment and exploitation.

Don’t just take our word for it, check out our historic win at Sage Nursing Home!

ENDING INSTITUTIONAL RACISM

We were the first union in the UK to end outsourcing for cleaners in higher education and the NHS, bringing over 300 cleaners in-house at the London School of Economics and 1200 facilities workers at NHS Imperial Trust. These wins ended decades of institutional racism and put millions back in the pockets of workers – where it belongs!

AS A MEMBER YOU WILL BE:

  • Be part of a growing community demanding dignity, respect and fair pay
  • Get advice and workplace representation
  • Be able to take legal action against unfair treatment and unpaid wages
  • Access meetings, training and skill-building
  • Enjoy social events, workshops and parties with fellow workers

ABOUT UVW

We are a community and a trade union of low-paid, migrant, marginalised and under-represented workers. We fight the bosses for dignity and respect through direct and legal action!
