Building the CWU at UK Mail

"There's more and more enthusiasm for the union here and when you guys come to do a recruitment drive, we get lots more people joining up," reports CWU member Jabar Malik (pictured) as he stands outside UK Mail's Birmingham site, where he works as a night-shift loader.

Health and safety, along with equality, are the big issues that persuaded 22-year-old Jabar to join the union and then volunteer to become the union's second rep at the 400-strong workplace.

"I worked here for the agency for two-and-a-half years and then I was employed by the company direct and I just completed my probationary period a couple of months ago," he explains, adding: "I joined the union as soon as I finished my probation and volunteered to become a rep with Abu."
