WITHOUT
A UNION
CONTRACT
 L
Company Handbook.
Not a legal binding
agreement. Merely a guide, at best it can be
changed at the whim of the company.
L
Seniority
Without a union contract, you have no guaranteed
seniority rights.
L
Open-Door Policy.
If you have a
problem, tell the boss and cross your fingers.
Without a contract, you could be fired for
complaining!
L
Any worker can be fired at any time,
without just cause or reason!
L
Any paid holidays you now enjoy could be
taken away at any time.
No contract - No idea of
what may happen.

Wage Increase?
Many nonunion
workers have gone years without a wage
increase. The typical nonunion shop receives
30% less than their union counterparts.
L
Unfair Treatment and
Favoritism
nearly always reigns
supreme in a nonunion shop.
L Without a negotiated contract
guaranteeing your insurance benefits
they can be changed
or eliminated at any time without notification.
