The Employment Rights Bill is now the Employment Rights Act. There are lots of good things for workers in it, as well as many that will help them get access to unions, which will help them win further improvements in future. www.theguardian.com/global-devel...

Showing people their employer when they sign up to a union increases the number who do by up to 15%. jointogether.online/post/2025-05...

Last year we worked with @neunion.bsky.social to completely overhaul their online member join. The results speak for themselves: - a massive 60% improvement in their conversion rate - two complicate forms combined into a single simpler one - a dedicated upgrade path to retain more student members

80,000+ people have now joined a union using @jointogether.online tools. More on how we make joining easier for members (and the whole process smoother for unions) at: jointogether.online

We’ve updated our website to better explain how we help trade unions to get and retain more members: jointogether.online

Joining the union needs to be simple. And it needs to stay simple even when you're waiting at a bus stop in the rain, pissed off with the way your work is going and ready in the moment to make a change.

We think of joining a union as a big decision about your work, and people will get past the odd UX problem. But think about how much personal admin you put off because you can't do it in the 10 mins you had at the time on your phone. Half the time you never get around to it.

Great work by the @jointogether.online team and NEU. A laser like focus on user experience (UX) is critical if we're going to recruit and retain members to unions and grow our movement.
