CWU Membership Forms
As set out in LTB 073/19 we are required to include an “opt in” option to the Political Fund alongside a further “opt in” for receiving communications in line with GDPR on all our membership application forms.
These changes are enshrined in legislation and must be complied with at all times. We have also added a version number on all forms (V2).
During recent weeks it has been brought to our attention that some branches are still using the old forms. This must cease immediately and the forms must be destroyed.
As you will appreciate during these difficult times, if we fail to comply with the legislation and are subsequently fined, you will understand the financial implication this will have on the union moving forward.
It is therefore extremely important that the new membership forms are being used and you can continue to receive the new forms either via the website, contacting Membership Records – Laura Wright (lwright@cwu.org), T&FSE department – Ray Walsh (rwalsh@cwu.org), Postal department – Zubeida Mussa (zmussa@cwu.org) or joinunion@cwu.org
Any queries on the content of this LTB should be directed to Jo Thair in the SDGS department (jthair@cwu.org).
Yours sincerely,
Tony Kearns
Senior Deputy General Secretary
