Why Join a Union?
Our union members receive a fair wage that is negotiated by the Local 564 and ratified by the members. Typically, union workers receive higher wages than non-union workers. This, however, is only the tip of the iceberg. Why leave the decision of your yearly wage increase to someone whose responsibility it is to keep costs down? Why leave it up to someone who has no idea of your true value?
As a worker, you have a RIGHT under federal law to form a union, select representatives of your choice and bargain collectively with your employer. This helps balance the power that an employer has over his or her individual employees.
Belonging to the Union gives you rights under the law that you do not have as an individual. Once you have successfully formed a union, your employer must bargain over your wages, hours, and working conditions.
