We're on a Road to Somewhere: Women's Groups in Unions

Women's groups (WGs) provide a platform from which women can develop their strengths, advance their concerns and access empowering positions. Academic attention to WGs in British unions has recently increased, reflecting their expansion and growing union responsiveness to female members. However, the meaning of WGs for unions remains under-researched. This article examines this using case studies of two major unions and a range of their WGs based on a typology of equality ideas and model of union organisation.
