Union for tech workers

Building a better tech industry

Prospect is one of the few unions designed for specialist and technical professionals. We have a deep understanding of the pressures and diversity of tech work and represent workers across the sector. Whether you’re dealing with workload pressures, unfair treatment, a contract issue or something that just doesn’t feel right, we’re here to support you. 

AI, ethics and digital rights

Our research shows that AI is reshaping the tech industry but that rushed automation is threatening progress. That is why Prospect is helping members safeguard their rights through our role, on the government’s advisory panel on AI and the future of work.

Equality, diversity and inclusion

From gender equality to neurodiversity, we are actively trying to tackle discrimination and improve representation in the industry.

Healthy workloads and sustainable careers

Tech jobs shouldn’t come with burnout, job insecurity or pressure to opt out of legal protections. Our Tech Workers’ Charter sets out  how to address these issues. If adopted, a career in tech could become more sustainable.

Why join a union?

From training and networking opportunities, to exclusive discounts and events, there are many reasons to join a union.
