UFCW 951 is Your Union

At some point in your employer’s history, workers decided to improve their working conditions and gain a voice on the job by forming a union.
They elected to join the United Food and Commercial Workers (UFCW) Local 951, which is why UFCW 951 represents you and your co-workers today. Your union represents members’ interests at work by negotiating and enforcing your contract. UFCW 951 also advocates for government policies that support workers and their families.

Over 27,000 working men and women across Michigan belong to UFCW 951. Members work at Meijer, Kroger, Harding’s, Heritage Provisioning, Polly’s, Knouse Foods, JLL, Rite Aid, and JBS.

As a UFCW 951 member, you're protected by a legally binding contract that’s negotiated with member input and voted on by the members the contract covers. Your union contract features many benefits, including:

• Guaranteed wage increases
• Quality health insurance at a reasonable cost
• Employer-paid retirement plan
• Extra pay for extra working hours
• Paid holidays and paid vacation
• Seniority rights
• Fair treatment from management
• No discipline without the employer proving just cause

For more information about UFCW 951 and how it can help you, explore all areas of this website. Your union stewards and union representatives are also valuable resources for information. You can also review your contract for answers to specific questions.

UFCW 951 members are invited to attend the local's quarterly Membership Meetings. These meetings are a time when members are able to ask questions, get involved, and hear what's going on with their union, industry, and their employer. Check out your union bulletin board to find up-to-date information on the next membership meeting in your region.
