In a nutshell, why should people join NUPIT?
They should join if they want to be protected in what they do at work, and they should join if they want to be part of an organisation that is trying to raise their pay and improve their conditions. Some people are joining us principally for the protection we afford. I myself would not wish to be in a situation where I had to brief a lawyer to sue someone on my behalf, and pay for him or her out of my own pocket. As a union member I know that this kind of support is available, as well as many other benefits like cheaper insurance premiums and so on. People join because it is good value, but they also join because they want to belong to something bigger than them alone and which is trying to do its best for their profession.
