Over 60% of graduate workers at the University of Maryland College Park have indicated their desire to be represented by the Graduate Labor Union (GLU-UAW). However, UMD is still refusing to bargain, and can do so indefinitely, because UMD grads lack collective bargaining (CB) rights under Maryland state law. A bill granting graduate workers at public Maryland institutions collective bargaining rights has already passed the Maryland House of Delegates, but the equivalent Senate bill is still stuck in committee. Please send an email to help us get this bill to a vote on the Senate floor! https://lnkd.in/eWKqmuvt

The International Union, United Automobile, Aerospace and Agricultural Implement Workers of America (UAW)
关于我们
The International Union, United Automobile, Aerospace and Agricultural Implement Workers of America (UAW) is one of the largest and most diverse unions in North America, with members in virtually every sector of the economy. UAW-represented workplaces range from multinational corporations, small manufacturers and state and local governments to colleges and universities, hospitals and private non-profit organizations. The UAW has more than 400,000 active members and more than 580,000 retired members in the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico. There are more than 600 local unions in the UAW. The UAW currently has 1,150 contracts with some 1,600 employers in the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico. A unique strength of the UAW is the solidarity between its active and retired members. A solid majority of the union’s retirees stay actively involved in the life of their union, participating in retiree chapters and playing a vital role in the UAW’s community action program. Since its founding in 1935, the UAW has consistently developed innovative partnerships with employers and negotiated industry-leading wages and benefits for its members. UAW members have benefited from a number of collective bargaining breakthroughs, including: - The first employer-paid health insurance plan for industrial workers. - The first cost-of-living allowances. - A pioneering role in product quality improvements. - Landmark job and income security provisions. - Comprehensive training and educational programs. The UAW’s commitment to improve the lives of working men and women extends beyond our borders to encompass people around the globe. Through vigilant political involvement and coordination with world labor organizations, we continue to fight for enforcement of trade agreement provisions on human and worker rights, fair labor standards and a new approach to international trade — one that raises the quality of life for working people worldwide.

“That’s probably our biggest sticking point, mandatory Saturdays,” UAW Local 291 President Ryan Compton said. “Cummins preaches work-life balance, and then they want more overtime out of people.” https://lnkd.in/eZEXRhpR

"The EmPIRE Worker Protection Act is expected to generate $103 million in annual revenue for the Department of Labor and allow workers, whistleblowers and unions to join with state workers to enforce state labor protections. The EmPIRE Act would allow workers and their unions to help enforce wage and safety laws and make it harder for bad bosses to get away with wage theft." https://lnkd.in/eCGvzrXS

“We need a union so that we have the power to advance our own rights and win a contract that we can use to protect ourselves independently of this flawed system. We deserve support that is not dependent on departmental politics or changing administrations.” https://lnkd.in/eRmK8-8B
