Life Membership

A lifetime membership is the highest honour the Union of National Employees can bestow. Traditionally, it is awarded to recognize the outstanding work of union activists who would otherwise lose their membership when they retire or leave their job. Lifetime memberships are awarded at convention. The criteria for this award can be found in the UNE Policies (MEM).
