Organize for your Future

Why Join the Teamsters?

 Most employers try to talk workers out of organizing.  Why?  Because employers know that with a union workers gain the power to make themselves heard.  And employers must listen.

 And that's exactly what having a union is all about -- having the power to stand up for ourselves, our families and our future.   Having a strong, collective voice to stand up to our employer to gain decent working conditions, pay, and benefits and having dignity and respect on the job.

 In fact, the only way to gain real, positive changes in the workplace is to get it in writing -- in a legally binding Teamsters contract.

It makes sense.  When we stand alone, we are powerless.  Our employers hold all the cards and call all the shots.  By standing together, workers gain a seat at the table and the ability to demand a fair deal.

 The Teamster Union is made up of more than 1.4 million working men and women just like you.  We are truck drivers and nurses, police officers and school employees.  We have decided that talk is cheap and false company "promises" can't protect our families.  We understand that the only way working people can truly protect their jobs an their families is by standing together, and negotiating a legally binding union contract.

Had enough of the broken promises?  Tired of lousy pay and working conditions?  Do you want a little respect on the job and security for your family?

 Check out the Teamsters!  You will be glad you did.
