  • Member benefits: From legal assistance to discounts, your membership goes beyond supporting you in the workplace. For more information on the services and benefits you will lose access to, click here.
  • Retired: If you have been a GMB member for more than 5 years and are due to or have fully retired from work, then you are eligible for a retired life membership, which is FREE of charge! Retired members enjoy the same services and benefits as paying members.
  • Unemployed: If you left work, been made redundant, or changed your role, workplace or employer, then you are still eligible to be a GMB member. We offer an unemployed rate to our members which is only 22 pence per month! You maintain your duration of service, as well as access to all services and benefits.

If you are unsure whether you are still eligible to be a member, please contact us.

When it comes to union membership, it is not a question of whether you can afford it, but a question of whether you can afford to be without it. If you still want to cancel your membership, please submit your cancellation in writing to our head office postal address free of charge, or via email:
