Unions For All
Across industries, working people are rising up like we haven't seen in years, uniting together to demand a voice at work!
Tweet @Starbucks!
Starbucks is giving the world a classic example of why we're demanding the rules be rewritten so workers who want a union can have one.
We are the Service Employees International Union (SEIU), a union of about 2 million diverse members in healthcare, the public sector and property services who believe in and fight for our Vision for a Just Society: where all workers are valued and all people respected—no matter where we come from or what color we are; where all families and communities can thrive; and where we leave a better and more equitable world for generations to come.
Join the fight!

I have 18 years experience in higher education, but in just the three yrs I've worked at AU, I've seen nearly 75% of the staff in my office leave. The problem is that we're poorly paid and overworked.

I’m proud that I took action and held Popeyes accountable. My story is just one of the many examples of why workers in every industry must have a strong and protected voice at work.

Thanks to our own creative problem solving efforts through our union, my co-workers and I were protected with PPE and shielded from layoffs and pay cuts.
