Will Equity find me work?

Posted on November 3, 2008

What is Equity doing about getting work for members?

Equity is a Union first and foremost and therefore our main function is to negotiate minimum terms and conditions of employment. We cannot act as agents for our members.

However in addition to our core activities, Equity strives to provide a wide range of services for members which are continually being revised and developed. We appreciate how important finding work is for members and therefore launched the Job Information Service. This service publishes accurate, up to the minute breakdowns and vacancy information from across the industry. The service reflects both the diversity of the Equity membership and the range of jobs our members are employed in, including acting, dancing, singing, variety, circus, theatre directors and stage management. Equity members can use the service to find out about paid work and job providers can use this site to give us information about work opportunities free of charge.

If you have any queries regarding the service, please contact Tracey Stuart, Job Information Officer at Equity on 020 7670 0242 or e-mail jobinformation@equity.org.uk.

Equity has also launched online members’ directories which give members an opportunity to market themselves. For further information please refer to the main Equity website – www.equity.org.uk
