Google Workers Organize Union
Open to All Alphabet Employees.
On Monday, workers at Google announced the
creation of the Alphabet Workers Union. .
The union was launched with the help
of the Communications Workers of America.
This means that members of the new
union will belong to CWA Local 1400.
The Alphabet Workers Union will reportedly be open to all
employees of Alphabet, both full-time and contractors. .
It is unclear how contractors will be included
as they are typically unable to join predominant unions,
and instead relegated to parallel freelancer unions.
Union organizer Nicki Anselmo posted a
statement online, saying the union will provide a
“sustainable structure” for all Alphabet employees. .
We’ve seen first-hand that Alphabet responds
when we act collectively … Our new union
provides a sustainable structure to ensure that
our shared values as Alphabet employees are
respected even after the headlines fade. , Nicki Anselmo, via Gizmodo.
Google has since released
a statement in response.
We’ve always worked hard to create a
supportive and rewarding workplace for our
workforce. Of course our employees have
protected labor rights that we support. But
as we’ve always done, we’ll continue
engaging directly with all our employees, Google, via Gizmodo
