Come to the NSSN conference
2020 conference - Saturday 4 July 11am-2pm
Rob Williams, NSSN chair
The NSSN Conference is a vital forum for trade unionists to come together to discuss our experiences during these crisis-ridden times, and forge a strategy that protects our safety in the workplace, and defends our jobs and income.
The economic and health effects of the Covid-19 pandemic is showing on a daily basis that fighting union organisation is a necessity for workers.
Come and take part in the biggest annual event that brings together fighting rank-and-file union members and campaigners, such as the parents who have organised with education workers against the Tories' reckless re-opening of schools, and the anti-racist protesters who have exploded into action after the killing of George Floyd in the USA.
Agenda (approx times)
- 10am registration opens
- 11 am - 12.30pm - Main plenary session including financial appeal/affiliation and request for new steering committee members
- Break for 15-30 minutes
- Workshops:
- Fighting closures and redundancies
- Discriminating conditions of BAME workers exposed by Corona and Black Lives Matter, how to defend and fight back for our rights
- Young workers - organising and fighting in the workplace
- The NHS - reversing privatisation and cuts
- Unionising social care
- Education on the front line
- Unionised workplaces, safe workplaces
- Housing in crisis
- Facing further austerity - fighting cuts in the councils and on transport
