Unions are the voice for the millions of working people and their<br />

families. They are committed to making a positive difference by<br />

doing things like lobbying government for health and safety laws<br />

to protect people from workplace injuries; campaigning for pay<br />

equity, retirement income, and fair treatment; and standing strong<br />

to protect the wages and benefits that they fought for decades to<br />

achieve.<br />

Together, as a union, we've been able to accomplish much more<br />

for ourselves and our families than we ever could have on our<br />

own. Together, we can improve both the quality of services we<br />

provide, and the communities in which we live.<br />

Without a union, employees are left to resolve issues and<br />

negotiate with their employer alone. With <strong>IBEW</strong> Local 37,<br />

members work together to support each other, improve working<br />

conditions through negotiations, and ensure everyone is treated<br />

with respect and dignity in a safe work environment.<br />

Sound pretty good? It is.<br />
