FACT or FICTION: Is Your Reality Actually Rumor?
"Unions do not like non-union contractors."
What Unions don’t like are contractors who cut corners on safety and training, don’t follow State laws or permitting, and don’t provide adequate healthcare or retirement savings to their tradespeople. There is a cost to each one of those on every job and when they are not jointly paid, that liability goes to the customer or the community. There are non-union contractors that do follow the laws and provide accordingly to their employees and typically their costs and bids are similar to union contractors.
"I have heard of unions not being able to fund benefits."
It is rare that any of the 55 unions in AFL-CIO, representing 12 million workers, have not been able to fund their commitments. UA Local 400 assuredly is not in that position.
"Unions are Just Good Ol' Boys Clubs."
Boys' clubs perpetuate when favors are provided to friends and connections. Just the opposite is true in unions. You don't need to know someone to join, all members pass the same rigorous training and testing requirements. Once you join, you'll receive the same privileges as everyone else, regardless of your association.
"Unions only help union workers."
Have you heard unions compared to private interest organizations? This is fiction. Just like a high tide raises all ships, unions improve worker compensation for the entire industry, not just members. Economic Policy Institute research proves higher union density has historically led to higher pay among nonunion workers. Additionally, apprenticeship training and access to continuing education improve skill sets and safety on all job sites.
