Rights and cash for 16 and 17 year olds

Make sure you get your rights - join a union

The best way to ensure your employer respects your rights is to join a trade union. See join rates for more information. Usdaw is the Union for shopworkers and we represent young people in many other workplaces.

The Labour Party

To help Labour carry on the good work, you can join the Labour Party. If you are under 27 it's only £1 for the first year! Call 08705 900 200.
