Organising brings the trade union closer to employees. It also gives a chance to work together for a better working life. The union offers support for more effective workplace activities and for daily life questions: How is the union visible and how does it operate on a local level, how do we solve the challenges related to work, and how is JHL a stronger protector of interests at workplaces?
