Testimonials

I was having a lot of difficulty with the employer–there was a lot of discrimination against me, so I stood up in front of the employer, and they fired me. I was out of work for a year. But the union kept fighting for me from the beginning to the end, and they got my job back, with the pay that I lost. I am very grateful to [my business agent] and the staff at the union, because they're not afraid to fight. They will stand up for anyone and everyone, and they fight to win.

When you're ready

A hundred fights have started exactly this way — with one worker reaching out.

Tell us where you work and how you'd like us to get in touch. Someone from NEJB who organizes in your industry will follow up. We'll listen first. Then we'll figure out what's possible together.

Without a union, your boss sets the rules. With one, you negotiate as equals.
Management is legally required to come to the table.
8,000+ workers across NEJB stand behind every fight.

We stand with our union because it's how we can support workers around the world. Here, the union has protected us and given us great benefits and opportunities. When you look elsewhere, not all companies treat their workers well–the jobs can be unsafe and people risk their lives at work. That's not fair to them. So we have to stand together here, to show companies around the world that we care about other workers, that we want everyone to have the same safety and protections on the job.
