COVID-19 update
Dear Member
Thankyou for contacting the Suffolk County Branch of UNISON.
Due to unprecedented calls, the branch is only receiving email correspondences, of which we will answer as soon as feasibly possible.
The branch is receiving enquires surrounding your pay rights and COVID-19 issues and we advise everyone to follow stipulated Government guidelines and also speak to your employer with any concerns you may have.
The guidelines from the Government are changing by the day and we need time to absorb this information to give you the appropriate support and guidance, so please be patient whilst we endeavour to familiarise ourselves with ever changing information.
Please take time to research this information and know what your rights are during this difficult period. It is important that the branch gives out correct information to its membership.
We thank you for your time and patience during this difficult time
With Best Wishes
UNISON Suffolk County Branch
