Create a better workplace
In order for you to have knowledge, co-determination and influence on decisions, certain conditions need to be in place. Having a collective agreement is one, having a local union association with elected representatives is another, and these two are closely linked.
Do you have a collective agreement?
Collective agreements ensure common rules and good conditions for all. Collective agreements are signed by the employer, but the union members can explore the scope for having a collective agreement at the workplace.
Do you have a local union association?
A local union association for employees with a graduate education represents members in the workplace, regardless of which Saco union they are a member of. The local association and its elected representatives give you and your colleagues greater influence over important matters.
Do you have elected representatives?
Having elected union representatives at your workplace gives you great opportunities to create a better workplace. They have the authority to negotiate and cooperate with the employer.

When you have elected representatives at your workplace, there is greater transparency, and you are more able to influence plans and decisions. Shared analysis and dialogue with the employer enable changes to be implemented in the best possible way.Better solutions
When you have elected representatives at your workplace, there is greater scope for more perspectives on workplace challenges to be heard. Together, you can find better solutions and work towards implementing them.
There are no workplaces as productive, profitable and successful as those where employees are happy and feel involved. Through active trade union work, you can create a better workplace together.
