How Managers And Supervisors Can Support Our Organizing Effort

Encourage direct reports that their organizing efforts are respected and supported.     

Voice public support for unionization efforts. 

Speak up for staff in meetings with HR and senior leadership, emphasizing how union-busting efforts conflict with the organization’s mission or values.  

Educate other managers why workers are organizing, dispel misinformation, and emphasize that wage and benefit gains negotiated by the union members are likely to lift up non-union management staff as well.   

Demand the organization’s leadership to voluntarily recognize the union without requiring an election if a majority of workers sign membership cards.
