American Red Cross workers in Hilliard, Ohio, joined UFCW Local 1059 on April 30. These workers are responsible for loading trucks for blood collection drives.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

The workers joined our union because they were concerned about insufficient health care benefits. They also wanted the same benefits, protections and dignity on the job as their unionized co-workers who are members of UFCW Local 1059 and employed in the lab kitting division.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

\u201cIt\u2019s so nice to have everyone in this unit treated with the same fairness and respect that they deserve,\u201d said UFCW Local 1059 Organizing Director Mark Dersom<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

\u201cWorkers at the American Red Cross provide vital services to our communities,\u201d said UFCW Local 1059 President Mike Nichols<\/strong>. \u201cAll of these heroes deserve our thanks and good union benefits.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
