Since 2009, over 1,500 human service workers have come together for a voice at work and voted to join SEIU Local 509, the Massachusetts Union for Human Service Workers. Tired of working for less and not getting the dignity and respect on the job that they deserve, they formed their union by working collectively and building a strong organization led by the people that know the most about their work: themselves.
With a union they’ve been able to negotiate for fair treatment, better wages, a voice in how staffing is handled, and many more improvements on the job. They know that being in a unionĀ is the only way you can have a say in agency policies and negotiate a legally binding contract. Join today!
