Make a smart choice for your working life – join JHL now and get the benefits of a union that looks after your interests, plus a €50 welcome gift

16.3.2026

Membership of Trade Union JHL is an investment that secures your rights in the world of work every day.

When you join JHL between 16 March and 1 April 2026, you receive a €50 gift card to JHL Bonus Awards shop as a welcome gift.

The gift card is delivered to new fee-paying members during April, and it is a nice addition to all JHL’s membership benefits. However, the most valuable thing in the union membership is not the gift card, and not even the huge array of special offers and deals for members. It is everything that JHL does for you when you need your trade union most.

JHL has solid experience and expertise in representing the interests of more than one thousand occupations. Whether you work in the care sector, technical work, transportation or administration, we have the know-how for the sector-specific issues of precisely your work.

A strong union keeps work fair for all

With the power of 160,000 members behind us, JHL negotiates on about 100 collective agreements for both public and private sectors year after year. These agreements determine your pay, working hours, holidays and many other terms and conditions of employment. A strong and knowledgeable trade union takes care of you in the world of work, making sure that your voice gets heard and your rights are preserved.

Joining JHL is easy, and now is the perfect time to do it and get an additional welcome gift as well as all JHL’s membership benefits. The gift card benefit is available for all new fee-paying JHL members whose day of joining the union is between 16 March and 1 April 2026. The gift card can be used for purchases at JHL Bonus Awards shop
