Unison (trade union)
Unison (stylised as UNISON) is the largest trade union in the United Kingdom. Its members work predominantly in public services, including local government, education, health and outsourced services.
The union was formed in 1993 when three public sector trade unions, the National and Local Government Officers Association (NALGO), the National Union of Public Employees (NUPE) and the Confederation of Health Service Employees (COHSE) merged. UNISON's current general secretary is Christina McAnea, who replaced Dave Prentis in 2021.
