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 />
