Why Union?
Members of OE987 benefit from bargaining power to negotiate with employers on your behalf. These contracts help workers earn fair wages, ensure workplaces are safe, establish long term benefits, protect workers from discrimination, and provide a support system. Every worker has the right to belong to a union and benefit from what has been won for workers. Most importantly, unions give you as a member a voice in your workplace.
Other member benefits include:
- Health and pension benefits
- Member rewards
