MiP can only offer one-to-one support on issues that occur after your first four weeks of membership. Members can still enjoy MiP’s wide range of other benefits and will be protected should another issue occur in the future. Joining when work is going well means your union will always be there if you ever need it.
MiP operates as a national branch of UNISON, meaning you will retain all UNISON membership rights and benefits such as voting in pay ballots and accessing UNISON discount schemes. MiP was established to focus on the issues that affect managers the most and joining means you are now in the most appropriate branch for your role.
If you are an existing UNISON member and would like to transfer into our branch, please contact info@miphealth.org.uk
For more information on how MiP and UNISON work together please see here.
If you are a civil service manager then you will be best represented by our partner union the FDA.
More details can be found on the FDA’s website here.
