Testimonials

I was diagnosed with a brain tumour and have undergone surgery which has removed most of the tumour. My union rep has helped me every step of the way in my return to work and has continued to help since my return to work. His experience and advice has been invaluable.

I am so pleased that I belong to the union you really don’t realise the full benefits of belonging until something like this happens. Once again, thank you.

I was put on a three day week, then the managing director told me that they could only offer me one half days work per week.

Thanks to the help I received from the CWU I have left the company with some money in my pocket, if I had just resigned I would have got nothing. It was definitely worth keeping my union membership and also contacting the local office when I needed help.

So thanks very much to the CWU you’ve done a great job!

Please accept my personal thanks for helping me through a very difficult period. I was getting very little help and support from my manager and it seemed what ever job I was given always had a problem that was affecting my results.

Thank you for becoming involved and advising me, as this information helped me at my performance plan meeting.

Thanks again.

I‘m glad I bumped into you, as the help and advice you gave was spot on.

I also found the information you gave me helped me speak to my manager, which made him reconsider my situation. I can now confirm that with your help I have secured a flexible working pattern that allows me to look after my children when my wife is at work.

Many thanks.

Thank you for being there when I need help. I have always been a member and never thought I would need the help of the CWU. My manager began to listen to my concerns as soon as you became involved. He has now replaced my lap top and he has withdrawn my warning.

Cheers.

I thought that after the disciplinary meeting I would get the sack! Thank you for defending me and putting my personal issues to the management.

I have spoken to other engineers in my team about what you have done and how you have helped me. I have also urged them all to call you if they have any problems.

Thanks for all you have done.
