Organizing

Why organize a union at your workplace?

You and you co-workers deserve respect, dignity and a voice on the job. With a union you have a real voice at work. You will be protected against unfair treatment, harassment and discrimination. Through collective bargaining you will be able to negotiate improvements in wages, benefits and working conditions. Statistics show that unionized workers have better access to benefits like pensions and extended medical benefits and unionized workplaces are more likely to be safer and healthier places to work.

Organizing a union in your workplace is the smart thing to do!
