A union that understands surgery
Surgical professionals work in a unique and demanding environment. CBS exists specifically to represent the surgical workforce. We understand the pressures of surgical practice and the employment issues that can affect your career.
Your profession is specialised. Your representation should be too.
More than professional indemnity
Indemnity protects your clinical practice. A trade union protects your employment interests. Professional indemnity and trade-union representation serve different purposes. If you face a disciplinary process, grievance, workplace investigation, bullying, discrimination or employment dispute, you may need specialist workplace representation.
CBS is here to support you.
CBS advocates for the interests of the surgical profession and works to improve working conditions and the environment in which surgical teams deliver patient care.
By joining CBS, you don't just protect your own interests.BECOME A MEMBER OF THE CBS TODAY
