Abstract [eng] The paper analyses the impact of unionisation through innovative service provision on union membership and industrial relations in Lithuania. The analysis have shown that despite some union service examples (including Lithuanian Nurses’ Organisation and Trade Union ‘Solidarumas’ of Guides and tour guides cases as well as few other examples) available in Lithuania, union services in general are poorly developed. Such a situation was determined first of all by the absence of such traditions and generally low trade union density and accordingly low trade union human and financial capacities to organise such kind of activities. Thus, trade unions agreed that in order to increase the extent of union services in Lithuania it would be reasonable to initiate some easily managed, efficient union services for some particular groups of workers (e.g., migrants) as well as to use some EU funds for piloting some union services.
