Members can find advice on a range of health issues from the Union’s extensive catalogue of tailor-made leaflets with 15 aimed specifically at women and additional male-specific information also available.
Subjects covered include the menopause, hysterectomy, Crohn’s disease, ovarian cancer, osteoporosis, breast care, male cancer and others.
Health problems may result in members having to take time off which in turn may trigger absence procedures at work. Reps and officials can offer important advice to members if they have health-related absences from work.
