Health and safety

Accidents are expensive in terms of the human impacts as well as financially – costing £6.2 million pounds annually in lost time to employers. Find out how the Union is working with HSE to safeguard you at work.

Equality and Diversity

Loughborough University is committed to achieving equality for all those who learn and work here and wish to develop a demonstrably fair and supportive environment which provides equality of opportunity and freedom for everyone.

Grievances and disciplinaries

Should you wish to raise a grievance or find yourself facing a disciplinary (even informal), you must contact Mark Hyde, Unite Senior Representative, as soon as possible.

Harassment and bullying

Loughborough University operates a zero tolerance policy on harassment and bullying, and Unite can support you every step of the way.

Thompsons Solicitors

Thompson Solicitors will act for you and members of your family for all types of accident claim, including those at work, on the road or during your leisure time.

Why pay extra for legal protection cover on your home or car insurance when you already qualify for a better service through your union?
