About us
Our Vision At the Solidarity Center, we believe that all people who work should receive the rewards of their work—decent paychecks and benefits, safe jobs, respect and fair treatment. We believe that economic and social injustice around the world are neither intractable problems nor acceptable byproducts of a global economy where some can win at the expense of many. Rather, we believe working women and men can collectively improve their wages and workplaces, call on their governments to uphold laws and protect human rights, and be a force for democracy, shared prosperity and inclusive economic development.

Collective Bargaining: When workers come together as a union to negotiate wages, benefits and working conditions with their employer, often resulting in a binding contract referred to as a collective bargaining agreement. With a union and collective bargaining, workers have the power to improve their jobs, sustain their families and build strong communities. #WorkerRights #LaborMovement #Solidarity #1u
