Notes

There have been no changes to TUC-affiliated unions since the 2020 Audit.

The percentages of unions quoted in this report are generally of the total number of unions responding to the audit. In some cases, analysis has also been carried out according to union size. The aim of this approach is to acknowledge that different-sized unions have different capacities to collectively bargain, produce guidance and training and focus on different areas.

For such analysis, the unions responding have been grouped into three size categories corresponding to the TUC rules on the composition of the General Council.10  

In this report they are described as either ‘large’ (section A unions), ‘medium-sized’ (section B unions) or ‘small’ (section C unions). 

The large unions that responded to the audit are: GMB, NASUWT, NEU, UNISON, Unite and Usdaw. 

The medium-sized unions that responded to the audit are: Community, CSP, CWU, EIS, Equity, FBU, Musicians’ Union, NAHT, PCS, POA, Prospect, SoR, RCM, RMT and UCU.

The small unions that responded to the audit are: Accord, Aegis, AEP, ASLEF, AUE, BDA, BFAWU, BOSTU/BIOS, FDA, Napo, NARS, Nautilus International, NGSU, NHBC Staff Association, NSEAD, NUJ, PFA, RCP, TSSA, UCAC, URTU and WGGB.

  • 10 Section A shall consist of members from those organisations with a full numerical membership of 200,000 or more members. Each such organisation shall be entitled to nominate one or more of its members to be a member or members of the General Council and the number of members to which the organisations comprising Section A shall be entitled shall be determined by their full numerical membership on the basis of one per 200,000 members or part thereof provided that where the total number of women members of any organisation in Section A is 100,000 or more that organisation shall nominate at least one woman. Section B shall consist of members from those organisations with a full numerical membership of 30,000 up to 199,999 members. Each such organisation shall be entitled to nominate one of its members to be a member of Section B of the General Council. Section C shall consist of seven members of unions with fewer than 30,000 members.”
