BENEFITS SPOTLIGHT: WHY BUY UNION?
Did you know that for every $1 spent on American-made products, $1.32 goes back into the US
economy? Did you know that on a national average, a union worker makes 30 percent more
than a non-union worker? That a union worker, on average, receives more than twice the
health benefits a non-union worker does? And that a union worker is much more likely to have
a guaranteed retirement than a non-union employee?
As members of NATCA, some of these things aren't as much of an issue for us since we are
federal employees, organized and protected under different guidelines than most unions. But
with only a little more than 11 percent of the national workforce belonging to a union, we are
all brothers and sisters in the same battle of ensuring the workplace is a safe, protected
environment, and our workforces are fairly compensated and continue to have a voice with our
employers and national leaders.
Buying union-made products protects and creates jobs for union employees and for our
country. Buying union-made ensures you receive something that has been built or created by
skilled craftsmen and women who will stand behind their product. Union-made means less jobs
getting farmed out to other countries. The more union-made products you buy, the stronger
the economic foundation for the middle class is set.
"Look for the union label" is more than a catchy ad slogan. It's a mantra to protect our brothers
and sisters and the economy of this nation.
