Testimonials

When people join together and be part of the union we are helping each other have support and rules for work, I dont want to be the one standing alone!  


Joining the union is the next best thing to having a guardian angel by your side and you can count on that!!  


I call the union for handling problems if I ever have any in my workplace, they always respond in a fast and timely manner to help resolve them!  


Being a member of the SDA is important because I'm not good at speaking up so I need assitance to help negotiate on my behalf.
