Membership of ACV-CSC, what’s in it for me?

Personal advice

There is an ACV-CSC point of contact in almost every municipality in Flanders. This is where union members may come to find an answer to any question or problem regarding income or work. You may for instance contact us about your contract, the year-end bonus and the premium paid by the union, your wages, time credit, leave, unemployment, illness and accidents (on the workplace).

Free legal aid

Bijblijven

Unemployed?

If you should unexpectedly become unemployed, ACV-CSC is there to help you draw up your unemployment administrative file and finalize it. If you do have an e-ID and a card reader, you can monitor your unemployment administrative file online via Mijn ACV / Ma CSC.

ACV-CSC benefits

Are you getting married soon? Or are you expecting a baby? Have you been a faithful member of ACV-CSC for many years? If that is the case, you may apply for a benefit paid by ACV-CSC. The amount you will get varies according to the local organization.

Benefit paid by the union

Depending on the sector in which you work, you may often get back part of your membership fee since union members are eligible for a benefit paid by the union. An agreement about a benefit paid by the union can be struck on the basis of a collective agreement between employers and unions. As a result, you get a better deal on your membership fee. You can use the website of the trade union federation to which you belong to check whether you are entitled to a benefit paid by the union.

ACV-CSC on the shop floor: union representatives and trade associations

If you have specific questions about your sector or the company you work for, please contact our local militant within your company. If there is no union representative within your company, you may also contact the full-time union official of your trade association. If the need arises, they will negotiate with your employer to find a good solution.
If you haven’t found your trade association or if you are in doubt about the appropriate one, please contact an ACV-CSC point of contact down your way.

E-services

Something you also need to know is that once you are a member, you may use our services without even leaving your home. Have a look at our e-services to see what’s on offer. The best way to join ACV-CSC is via our website. When they connect, members get access to much more information and they may use additional tools.
