Testimonials

Great service, great knowledge of workplace policies and procedures, free Legal advice, great value for money. These are just some of the benefits, why wouldn’t you want to join?  


I call the union for handling problems if I ever have any in my workplace, they always respond in a fast and timely manner to help resolve them!  


Joining the union is the next best thing to having a guardian angel by your side and you can count on that!!  


I think the question should be this:  Why should somebody not join the SDA? That list would be short.
