Find out more about Four Day Week at our AGM

Dear Barnet UNISON member

Barnet UNISON is pleased to announce that a joint visit with Barnet UNISON and the Leader of Barnet Council to South Cambridgeshire is being arranged for March this year.

See Headline below

“In 2023, the first ever UK council trial got underway. South Cambridgeshire District Council became the first UK council to trial a four-day week with a three month trial for desk-based staff that began in January 2023. The move involved staff reducing their hours to 30 hours per week and with no loss of pay.”

At a time when our members are worried about redundancies and cuts this revolutionary approach to employment is something that Barnet UNISON feels needs to be explored for our members.

Barnet UNISON has invited Liz Brennan South Cambridgeshire UNISON Branch Secretary to come and speak to members about the Pilot and what it means for UNISON members.

Come along and listen to Liz tell this positive story.

All you need to do is register to join our Barnet UNISON AGM Tuesday 25 February 2025 4-5.30 pm by clicking on the link below.
