This amendment sets a clear limit. It says that, if you are a union member, you cannot be treated as on call round the clock for union business. You cannot be treated like a resource to be endlessly tapped for activism, modernised mobilisation or messaging. If you want to engage, you can. If you do not, you are protected. I believe that is especially important now, because the very structure of this Bill encourages union representatives to behave like middle managers. It creates incentives to prove their influence, boost visibility and show results. That inevitably leads to unwanted contact and, without this amendment, members would have no legal right to say “Stop, not now, not outside work”.
