Today in 1912
The Little Falls Textile Strike in Little Falls, New York was sparked by pay cuts following a New York state law that reduced weekly work hours from 60 to 54 for women and children. The strike united female immigrant workers to address unsafe working conditions and low wages and was settled on January 3, 1913.

The Union Difference
Updated On: Jan 16, 2019

   Unions like Teamsters 355 play a great role in balancing the scales for working people. It is a documented and statistical fact that Corporate America has benefited mightly from our struggling economy, while income inequities continue to grow for working Americans.

   That's why more and more workers are joining unions. The Labor Movement has fought hard to secure many benefits that are now enjoyed by American workers (union and non-union alike). They include, but are not limited to:

  • The 40-hour work week
  • The 8-hour work day
  • Higher wages
  • Employer-paid health insurance
  • Retirement plans, including 401(k) 
  • Sick leave
  • Paid vacations and holidays
  • Grievance procedures
  • Safety and health protections

   There are just some things you can't put a price tag on: Dignity, respect, a voice on the job, better working conditions, and better lives for working families.
