Stop the support staff job cuts at CUHWe are concerned this is going to increase waiting lists; increase outsourcing, stopping "things getting done"; stretch clinical staff further by doing tasks they previously would have relied on colleagues to do, as well as stretching their attention. This affects our whole community - not only on quality and timeliness of patient care, but also on the financial impact of a reduction in hundreds of jobs in our communities.Â50 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Craig Jamieson

DHP Family- Respect your workers at Rock City & recognise Unite the Union!Hospitality workers often get a raw deal at work. Fear, intimidation and poor conditions plague the sector. Bullying, sexual harassment and low pay should not be accepted practice. It doesn't have to be this way. Rock City workers have come together to demand their voice is heard. They want Unite to represent them and meaningful negotiations to begin to resolve a number of their workplace concerns. Rock City is a world famous and established venue. It's only fair that the workforce are treated in a manner that befits Rock City's status.806 of 1,000 SignaturesCreated by Kevin Reynolds

Open Letter to PACT: We Demand Better in AI in Film & TV!Equity is currently negotiating with Producers Alliance for Cinema and Television (PACT) to revise and improve the collective agreements across film and TV. PACT is the UK screen sector trade body for independent production and distribution companies. This will set the minimum terms for job contracts used by the big streamers such as Apple, Netflix, and Disney plus. In our negotiations with PACT, we are demanding better on the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI). AI has grown rapidly across the entertainment industry in recent years, but UK law has failed to keep pace and this is leading to performers being exploited. Equity is demanding comprehensive AI protections to regulate the use of AI and protect performersâ image, voice and likeness, specifically: ⢠Informed consent and fair compensation for use of performance data to train AI models ⢠Informed consent and fair compensation for creating AI-generated performances ⢠Control of your likeness during lifetime and post-mortem ⢠Prohibiting the use of AI for âdubbingâ content in foreign languages So far PACT has refused to negotiate on these demands. What is AI training and what is Equity fighting for?  In order for AI systems, or machine learning models, to generate digital assets such as images, sound, audiovisual media, and digital human-like digital performances, they must be trained on large volumes of data files. This data could include recordings from existing content or data from Artists that are being scanned on set. As part of our claim, we have seeking to establish clear rules for this type of use and weâve made clear that training on TV programmes or films featuring performersâ contribution is not allowed without an explicit agreement between Equity and PACT1,253 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Gareth Forest

Save Square Chapel for the peopleSquare Chapel has a strong history of supporting community events and professional performances and is a popular venue in the local community. Square Chapel was a popular arts centre with good community outreach prior to becoming insolvent during the covid pandemic. In September 2020, the venue was reopened when it was taken over by Wigan based Arts at the Mill. Square Chapel CIC was subsequently established. In early February 2025, Square Chapel CIC announced the arts centre was closing and all future events were cancelled. Five months later, this valuable community asset remains closed and not serving the people of Halifax. Arts Council England (ACE) has now withdrawn its funding from Square Chapel. It has recently been announced that the Square Chapel building will be rented out to provide dressing rooms during the Piece Hall concert season. Square Chapel should provide good art, good work and be an artistic hub for the community. Halifax MP Kate Dearden has written to ACE supporting the reopening of Square Chapel and calling for the Halifax community to be involved in discussions about the future of the centre. We need this popular arts centre back! We need answers and we need the building to be back open and operating for the people of Halifax. Equity, TUC Yorkshire & Humber Creative and Leisure Industries Committee and Calderdale Trades Union Council are jointly calling for the public to have their say on the future of Square Chapel Arts Centre. Make your voice heard by joining the petition to Save Square Chapel for the people.858 of 1,000 SignaturesCreated by Fiona Tobin

Fair Pay, No Delay, Restore the Local Pay Cuts TODAYđ¸ What does that mean for you? ⢠A worker earning just over ÂŁ15,000 in 2012 lost around ÂŁ300 per year from the cut. ⢠Even with NJC pay rises, theyâre still earning less than they would have â because they started from a lower point. ⢠Over 12 years, that adds up to thousands of pounds in lost earnings.  âď¸ This is about fairness. Doncaster workers have been treated differently â and worse â than council workers in other areas.  We believe thatâs unacceptable. We believe that needs to change. Weâre calling on Doncaster Council to: ⢠Review the long-term impact of the 2012 cuts ⢠Begin a process to restore pay for affected staff â What can you do? đď¸ Sign the petition today and show that Doncaster Council workers demand fair pay.Â2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by North East, Yorkshire & Humber Region

Pass the Employment Rights Bill in fullEveryone deserves security, dignity and a fair day's pay for a fair day's work. At a time when bosses are raking in record pay while working people face a cost-of-living crisis, the Employment Rights Bill will help tip the balance back toward workers - and make sure they get a fairer share. The Bill also includes vital rights that make it easier for workers to organise and build strong unions. It will: ⢠Make it harder for anti-union giants like Amazon to block union organising ⢠Support union reps with better rights and time off to do their job ⢠Strengthen the process for workers to win union recognition and build power together ⢠Make it easier for reps and organisers to access workplaces and talk to workers about their rights But all of this is at risk. The Bill is now in the House of Lords, and Tory peers are preparing to water it down. Add your name now to demand the Employment Rights Bill is passed - in full, and without delay.27,164 of 30,000 Signatures

TFL Employee Diabetic Policy DemandTFL employees need diabetic policies because diabetes can impact work performance and productivity, potentially leading to increased absenteeism. By understanding the needs of employees with diabetes, TFL can implement suitable reasonable adjustments and support systems that allow them to manage their condition effectively and remain productive at work. This includes recognizing that diabetes is often considered a disability under the Equality Act 2010, requiring employers to make reasonable adjustments.102 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Ifor Davies
