| The UNION Difference. | |
| UNION | NON-UNION |
| 1. Wages, benefits, and working conditions are protected by a legal contract. | 1. Management can change wages, benefits, and working conditions unilaterally. |
| 2. A contract spells out how much each worker earns. | 2. No one knows how much anyone else earns. Disparate treatment/favoritism exists. |
| 3. Unions negotiate raises for everyone. Members vote on it, and if they feel
it is unfair, they may vote it down. |
3. If you want a raise, you must plead your case to a supervisor or manager. |
| 4. If you are unfairly disciplined, unions provide due process to protect against
unscrupulous supervisors. |
4. If you are unfairly disciplined, you are on your own (at-will employee). You are subject
only to policy. |
| 5. If you don’t like something at work, you can work together to change it. | 5. If you don’t like something at work, you are at the mercy of management. |
LIVE BETTER. WORK UNION.
