You’ve still got a couple of days to celebrate Union Label Week – which runs through this Sunday, September 9 -- and support good jobs by looking for union-made goods and union-produced services when you shop. Click here for a searchable database of union-made products – everything from sunscreen to lawn and garden products, beverages and food -- provided by the AFL-CIO’s Union Label and Services Trades Department (which also has a handy app; search for "Union Label"), or here for Labor 411’s guide. “In these difficult times, with constant attacks on workers’ rights and union rights, we need to make an extra effort to look for the quality and value represented in union-made products and services,” says Union Labor president Richard Kline. “When you buy union, you’re supporting good jobs in American communities, jobs that provide living wages and benefits, safe working conditions and dignity and respect for work.”
