Workers to Westminster Live Blog
Catch up on our Workers Power the Future campaign day, where GMB members are campaigning for the voice of workers to be heard in the transition.
Workers Power The Future
If the transition is to deliver jobs, prosperity and security, and fulfil our climate obligations, then change must be done with workers - not to them.
The UK needs real-world plans to make a success of our energy transition.
This requires better cooperation between unions, industry, and government, and it means authentic worker voice must be at the heart of change.
GMB is clear: a future imposed will fail.
Worker and community participation in decisions affecting their livelihoods and prosperity is vital.
For over 135 years, GMB members have helped fuel our country’s success. They will be pivotal to what comes next.
That’s why we say ‘workers power the future’.
