Wal-Mart workers deserve the same representation: As the world’s most modern and efficient distribution and retail system, Wal-Mart should be held to the highest labor standards for treatment of its employees. Based on Wal-Mart’s profitability, the company should be expected to set the gold standard in terms of wages and benefits.

At present, that’s not the case.

Here’s why: Even though Federal Labor Law provides absolute protection to workers who exercise their right to organize a union, Wal-Mart has viciously fought union organizing efforts, especially those that took place on a shop by shop, workplace by workplace basis.

That’s why it’s critical for Wal-Mart workers from coast to coast to organize into a strong union – winning union representation rights at numerous Wal-Mart and Sam’s Club facilities throughout the U.S. and Canada. That’s how Wal-Mart employees will gain the leverage to negotiate with the company for a national contract that provides security for themselves and their families.

Wal-Mart has used its profits to fund phenomenal growth for several years.  It’s now time for Wal-Mart workers to gain a fair share of the profits they help produce.

Join us as we begin the process of building a stronger, fairer, safer workplace by organizing Wal-Mart.

CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: The Teamsters Union has established rigorous standards of confidentiality to protect all Wal-Mart and Sam’s Club employees throughout this organizing campaign.  Information obtained through this site and other organizing communications will be used solely for the successful organizing effort.
