When Workers Stand Together, We have Power.
A better life comes from the power of workers standing together. It is what UFCW Local 5 Union family fights for everyday.
A Union is a group of workers standing together to have a voice in the workplace. At UFCW 5, we believe in fairness and community, and we are driven by the principle that EVERYONE has the right to a good quality of life. You work hard every single day to help provide for you and your family. Your voice is power and that power comes from joining UFCW.
UFCW Local 5 represents 30,000 workers. We are supermarket stockers, retail clerks, food processors, financial professionals, and cannabis workers.
Many employers resort to the same anti-worker, anti-union playbook of lies and scare tactics in an effort to stop workers from having a voice on the job. You must be prepared for these company tricks to win your right to form your union.
