The CWU at BT

We are the independent, specialist trade union for over 185,000 workers across postal, telecoms, financial services and the tech sector.

The CWU proudly represents almost 40,000 members in BT, with the number continuing to grow.

We are committed to continuing the great work that we do for these members.

If you become a member of the CWU, you’ll be joining forces with all other CWU represented workers and speaking with a stronger voice for a better working life. Union members get paid more, are less likely to face redundancy, and have better health and safety within the workplace.

CWU members have access to workplace advice, support, and representation by trained reps who ensure that employers stick to the law and to agreements made with the company. Members can also access legal advice on both work and non-work related issues.

Members enjoy benefits such as discounted insurance rates, hotel, travel and experience benefits, health and wellbeing discounts including gym membership, and deals on car breakdown services.

We are also dedicated to helping our members grow and expand their knowledge. Members have access to training and development courses, and assistance in getting more involved within the union through our Unlock pathway.
