Securing your future retirement
Making sure that our members have the financial security they need to retire with dignity is a top priority for us. We fight to keep these plans strong through stock market dips and legislative changes that can impact your savings.
– Mike Insley, UFCW Local 663“Securing the pension [in our contract] was a priority for me because it secures the future for everybody in this industry. It’s the light at the end of the tunnel.”
Unions were instrumental in the creation of the federal Social Security program and we continue to advocate for expanding the benefits and social safety net retirees can access. Today, 91 percent of union workers have access to a retirement plan compared to only 70 percent of non-union workers.
