the place i currently work for is a pain we was on 3 shifts days/ nights/ afters that was about 2 years ago then they swapped us to continental shifts 2years ago and they still havnt given us a new contract for it so they keep frettenig to put us back on 3 shifts obviously we after do eveything new they frow at us now cos if we refuse all they say is well put u back on 3 shifts i wouldnt mind but it would meen a big pay drop just wanna see what our rights are surely after 12month we should have been given a new contract also if we do overtime its at our basic pay and not the continental rate so the over time works out about 2 pound more than what we get for our own shift this cant be right surely

If you employer already recognises a TU then that one is the best one to join.
If they do not then one related to your trade and/or that people at work are already members of is the best one.
ps putting on my internet pedant hat Trades Union is the correct pural0 -
To expand on the above, if your employer doesn't hasve a recognition agreement in place it would be prudent to ensure a prospective TU is affiliated to the TUC...http://www.tuc.org.uk/tuc/unions_main.cfmDon’t be a can’t, be a can.0
