Consumer Benefits Introduction VIEU members can save money, time and energy when making major purchases by taking advantage of discounts offered exclusively to VIEU members. Unison: Mobile, Home phone & Internet Based in Trades Hall, Unison is the union-only telecommunications service provider and is exclusively endorsed by multiple unions across Australia. Through collective bargaining, we fight for discounted telephony services with 5% of all revenue going to the Industrial Relations Fighting Fund to support member’s rights at work. Unison is the ONLY telecommunications service provider to outwardly condemn the government’s new industrial relations laws. We assist your union’s communication strategies by using our billing system (an Australian first) as a way for your union to increase its communication to its members. By joining Unison you not only get the best rates but you are also contributing to the fight against IR legislation at the same time! A percentage of all payments go to the Union movement’s IR fighting fund to fight for your rights. Visit www.unisonmobile.com.au for more information.
