Welcome GCA Services Group

Welcome GCA workers
This site is dedicated to the GCA drivers in Minneapolis Mn. who want to form a union with Teamsters Local 120 and bargain collectively with their employer for better wage and working conditions. In these tough economic times it is stressful for every family when it comes down to what will happen at work. With a Union contract everything is spelled out in writing so that you know exactly what is going to happen at work. With this job security comes peace of mind for you and your family.

The bottom line is if the employees of  GCA Services  want a contract they are the ones that will make it happen. Not the Teamsters Local 120. We are here to help you and guide you along the way but this is your Union.

The election will be successful because it is being handled by the workers for the workers...all for a contract.

This will be the official site for GCA service workers to communicate with each other and Teamsters Local 120. You can do so anonymously or by leaving your name in the comment as: section. Use this site to crosscheck any information given out by those who are being paid to keep you from joining teamsters local 120.

Please check back here frequently for updates, fact checks and the truth.

Why Join a Union?

Forming a union changes the basic power relationship at work. Without a union, employers have almost all the rights. They can change your pay and working conditions at any time as long as they do not violate certain laws, like the minimum wage. Any benefits you receive are at the discretion of your employer.
Once you form a union, your employer cannot make changes in your working conditions unless they are negotiated with you as union members. Any benefits or working conditions covered by your contract are protected by law.
When you negotiate your contract, you and your co-workers decide what kinds of things could be improved at your work site and make proposals to your employer. Your employer is legally obligated to negotiate over most proposals that affect the quality of your work life. A union gives you strength in numbers to improve your pay, benefits, and working conditions.

Your Rights in the United States

You have a legal right to:

• Join a union.
• Attend a union meeting on your own time.
• Talk to a union organizer.
• Declare yourself a union supporter.
• Assist in forming a union.

Employers are forbidden by law to engage in certain conduct. Your employer may NOT legally:

• Threaten you with discharge or punishment if you engage in union activity.
• Threaten to shut down business if workers form a union.
• Prevent you from soliciting members during non-working hours.
• Question you about union matters, union meetings, or union supporters.
• Ask you how you or other workers intend to vote in an election.
• Ask you whether you belong to a union or have signed up to join a union.
• Transfer you to or assign you to a less desirable work assignment because of your union activity.
• Threaten to terminate your benefits because you unionize.
• Threaten a layoff or loss of jobs in retaliation for voting for a union.
