Meeting Equity

Notes made from equity talk.

Equity is a union make commitments and agreements with employers. There is power in the union because they are very recognised.

Equity write up a contract in place for work, which will be negotiated.

Even though there is a lot of non - equity work out there, there is lots of union agreements. Even if its a non union agreement equity can help you.

You can ask employers if their involved with a union agreement.

Me too movement- equity listen and advise.

Arts minds - sign posting

Equity encourage employer and employee should have each others names and addresses as a point of contact just incase.

Accidents are not covered if you aren't a member.

Questions I asked

Whats the process equity take to take action against discrimination in a work place environment?

Answer- they will make an account of all information obtained then potentially visit the workplace and investigate. After all investigations are completed, they will work from there to take appropriate action.

In a past situation i.e. a breach of a contract; can equity offer any kind of support, even though you were not involved with equity at the time?

Answer- Equity can sign post you to support networks if you have dealt with a traumatic experience but cannot take action if it is not an ongoing situation since you were a member.
