About the P&I Team

Bargaining Information System

Welcome to the UNISON Scotland Bargaining Information System. This is an interim version which has been placed online until a fuller, more developed system is produced.

BIS provides listings of all the current agreements held by the P&I Team. However this system is only as good as the information that we receive, therefore I would like to remind everyone that we are constantly looking for further agreements to add to our current resources. If you require a copy of any of the agreements listed please contact Kenny MacLaren (k.maclaren@unison.co.uk) P&I Team UNISON 15 West Campbell Street Glasgow G2 6RX
