Troublemakers At Work is a network of rank-and-file trade unionists in Britain, launched after a conference in Manchester in July 2023. We are organised by a democratic committee, without affiliation to political parties or particular unions. We support each other in organising to win change in our workplaces and unions. We held further national conferences in 2024 and 2025. In 2026 we are holding a series of regional conferences instead.

Our second AGM was held on 24th January 2026. It included a public session on Countering the Far Right at Work.

You can join Troublemakers At Work to help us continue the good work, or you can sign-up to keep updated here.
