Ahead of Labor Day, the Treasury Department yesterday released its report on how unions contribute to a more robust and resilient economy. According to the report, unions play an important role in addressing longstanding challenges including stagnant wages and high housing costs, while improving working conditions.
The report also states that unions boost wages by 10 to 15 percent in workplaces where they form, and improve benefits, retirement plans, grievance procedures and scheduling policies.
NTEU is proud to be part of the labor movement that has had a powerful effect on the lives of Americans inside and outside of the workplace—and we are proud to have improved the federal workplace for those we represent.
