Notes

by being associated with "higher productivity, lower employee turnover, improved workplace communication, and a better-trained workforce". The union helps protect the employees from unjust treatment by preventing union employees from being fired form their job without a just cause and helps to protect government employees human rights.

The union helps with economic growth and provides workers with additonal meetings and trainings to protect their right if needed. The help of union shows, Union employees make more money than non-union workers, there are more union workers with job-related health coverage and union wokers are more likely to have guaraented pensions.

Unions help working people in America keep and improve their legal rights to safe, healthy and fair conditions at work.. Working people in America have certain basic legal rights to safe, healthy and fair conditions at work. Laws allow working people to join together with their co-workers to advocate for better working conditions, such as better pay, health care and retirement, fair scheduling, sick days, and training opportunities. But some employers, and the big business lobby who back them, seek to roll back these fundamental rights because they value their profits more than they value their employees.

We work tirelessly to counter the increasingly sophisticated and well-funded groups who threaten our rights. Union members work together to advocate for better working conditions and better pay and to narrow the widening chasm of income inequality.America’s legacy of racism, exclusion and injustice continues to obstruct working people’s efforts to act together to build better lives. Since its inception, the labor movement has aspired to include all working people, irrespective of race, gender, nationality, religion, sexual orientation or gender identity. All workers benefit from unions because unions set pay standards and workplace protections. Union members — workers like you — benefit most from the union's collective bargaining power to negotiate with employers on their behalf. This basic right gives you as a union member more power than if you tried to negotiate as an individual.
