The Union of Shop, Distributive and Allied Workers (USDAW) are a part of the Retail Sector Council where challenges faced by the retail sector are considered. Employment has been identified as a priority area for the Council.

There has been no recent engagement with USDAW specifically on working conditions for retail workers.
