GMB Midland Region and Northants Branch is a trade union that represents all workers. Workers of different backgrounds face different and unfair challenges in the workplace - from unequal pay to bullying and harrassment.

That's why GMB members organise around equality: because unfair treatment because of gender, race, sexuality, young age and disability is wrong and must end. There are laws <https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2010/15/contents> around equality at work but it takes trade union members taking action to make sure they're enforced. GMB organises members who belong to five equality groups or strands - what the law calls having a 'protected characteristic'. https://www.gmb.org.uk/region/midlands <https://www.gmb.org.uk/region/midlands>
