I am genuinely keen to find out. Let us suppose an individual is victimised at work and the trade union is called in. Then it is perfectly obvious that the person is a member of the trade union. I know there are companies in this country that deny the right to membership of a trade union to their employees. This is completely and utterly wrong. Either it is or it should be unconstitutional. Anyway, I am unsure how effectively a trade union can represent a member who is anxious to conceal that membership from the employer.
