Our Core Services

BOPPAWU is a Socialist oriented general trade union formed to organize workers from both the Government and the private Sector. BOPPAWU is a progressive movement which is also futuristic in the sense that it's targeting workers holding precarious jobs including the informal sector. Most of its leadership is from the public service and they have served at various public sector unions for many years.

BOPPAWU is a General Trade Union whose objectives among others is to organise, recruit and represent workers, and strengthen workplace organisation, to encourage membership involvement and participation to achieve real union power for its members.BOPPAWU seeks to defend and improve its members' wages and working conditions including the pursuit of equal pay for work of equal value and extend collective bargaining. This being the best and most effective means of distributing wealth, improving the wages and conditions of workers, and giving workers collective power in the workplace. We intend to defend and improve the social and economic well-being of members and their families, both directly and via commensurate policies in relation to society domestically. We want to have a strong political voice, fighting on behalf of working peoples' interests, and to influence the political agenda at the branches, regionally, nationally and internationally, so as to promote a socialist vision for a more equal society in which wealth is distributed from the rich to the poor, including by means of progressive taxation and other regulatory measures to restrict excessive wealth.
