UFCW 21 year in review 2015

2015 was a year of victories for UFCW 21 Members striving for better work conditions, social justice and higher wages. 2015 welcomed new membership to many workers who believe in the promise of America. A promise that our children can lead better lives than ours. A promise that with hard work and standing up for our rights we can make a decent living that includes a good wage, health care and retirement.

Macy's Informational Picket, Support Our 7

JULY 8 & 9

Stand together for:
LIVABLE WAGE   //  DEPENDABLE HOURS   //  AFFORDABLE HEALTH CARE  //  SICK LEAVE   //  USABLE LEAVE (PTO)   //   SECURE PENSION

During bargaining this week Macy’s Management continued to push their takeaways including limiting our health care, pension and PTO. With many retail chains improving their pay standards, Macy’s is moving backwards. We are standing strong on our key issues and equality.
