Support from Management
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 Human Resources and senior management, emphasizing how attemps at union-busting efforts conflict with the organization’s mission or values.
- Educate other managers on why workers are organizing, dispel misinformation and amplify the fact that wage and benefit improvements negotiated by union members are likely to lift up non-union management staff as well.
