IT'S TIME!
to VOTE YES
for UNION!
A union is when workers join together to make improvements and have a voice on the job. This is done by negotiating a legally binding union contract based on you and your coworkers’ needs that both workers and management have agreed to. You are the union! Not only will you have your rights in writing, your union has your back. If you need assistance, for any reason, your union is there for YOU.
According to the Economic Policy Institute, union workers, on average, earn 19% more than their nonunion counterparts. And overall well-being is better in union households than in nonunion ones.
So, what happens next? Get details here about when and where you will vote and stay tuned for more info to come.
