Submitted by abrown on Thu, 19/01/2012 - 18:43

In joining BAOT you get two memberships for the price of one, with membership of UNISON also included (with the exception of those overseas or working in private practice) as they provide our industrial relations support.

UNISON membership offers with it a range of services, support and benefits, so keep this in mind and make the most of your membership!

On a local level, BAOT/UNISON stewards can offer advice for any issues you face in the workplace and are there to represent the views and needs of the occupational therapy workforce.

At a national level, membership on UNISON means that you are part of largest public sector trade union, with your views taken via ballots on important issues such as the ongoing pension reform plans.

UNISON membership also entitles you to legal services, including free legal advice and representation, welfare services such as debt advice, and learning opportunities, including discounts and grants.

There are also a number of other benefits offered by UNISON membership, such as a range of offers on financial services and discounted travel booking.

So whether you need help in the workplace, or want to save some money on your next holiday, remember to make the most of your BAOT and UNISON membership benefits!
