Why Union
A union is more than just a workplace benefit—it’s a movement that gives workers a voice, dignity, and power in the workplace. When workers stand together, they can negotiate better wages, stronger benefits, and safer working conditions. A union contract protects your rights and ensures fair treatment on the job.
At UFCW Local 1776, we believe that every worker deserves respect, financial security, and a workplace where safety and fairness come first. Here’s how being a union member makes a difference.

Better Wages & Benefits
You deserve wages that provide financial stability, allow you to support a family, and help you build a better life. By joining together, UFCW 1776 members raise wages for everyone.
Fair Scheduling
A reliable schedule means a better life. A union contract ensures predictable hours, so you can plan your life outside of work.
Affordable Healthcare
No one should have to worry about affording a doctor’s visit or paying medical bills. UFCW 1776 members have access to better, more affordable health coverage.
Job Security
With a union, you don’t have to stand alone. A union contract protects your job by ensuring fair treatment and a clear grievance procedure to resolve workplace disputes.
Safer Workplaces
Government safety agencies like OSHA are often underfunded and overstretched. UFCW 1776 holds employers accountable to maintain safety standards—through enforceable contract language.
Retirement Security
UFCW 1776 fights to ensure that after a lifetime of hard work, you can retire with dignity and financial security. Whether through employer-backed pensions or retirement savings plans, we make sure your future is protected.
