A Union Contract Makes Your Life Better

The Teamsters strongly believes that workers should have a voice in their jobs. The only way to have a true voice in your workplace is to have a union contract. Unions negotiate for:

  • Wage increases;
  • Safe conditions on the job;
  • Employer-paid health insurance including vision, dental, and prescription drugs;
  • Reasonable line speeds and workload requirements;
  • Job security and seniority rights;
  • Pensions;
  • Paid holidays and vacations;
  • Opportunities for advancement; and
  • Protection from unfair treatment and favoritism by the boss.
