Special Programs and Discounts
In addition to the protections offered by having a union contract, UFCW membership also comes with access to a wide range of other ways to save money and plan for your future, such as scholarships and discounts programs.
Know Your Rights
If you are called to a meeting with your supervisor and you are afraid it might be disciplinary, as a union member, you are entitled to have your shop steward or other union representative present, but you must clearly state this to your employer. Having a shop steward present keeps the conversation on the record, and means you will have someone their to represent your rights and ensure you aren’t unfairly disciplined.
