Among the many benefits of union membership are better working conditions, better wages, and training second to none. But the benefits go much deeper than that. For example, there’s the importance of a Health and Safety Welfare plan when you have children, and a Pension Plan for your retirement years.  Safety at the work site is also critically important. Unions are always working on ways to make the workplace safer. All these benefits are important, but the one that stands out is the benefit of belonging. Being a union member, and belonging to an organization that is focused on making life better, inspires pride that is well earned.

1. Union workers get higher pay and better benefits
