Get Organized!

FAIR is always reaching out to others to continue the growth of our organization. We’ve had numerous successful contract negotiations in recent years, and we’re committed to bargaining good contracts to secure a better future for FAIR members.

Don’t pass up the opportunity to talk to someone from another local about securing a Union contract for themselves. Take the opportunity at rallies, meetings, conventions, or other community events to spread the word. You might be pleasantly surprised to see their interest.

Contact FAIR today to ask any questions.
