The Northwest Pennsylvania Area Labor Federation is an AFL-CIO affilated organization that represents 10 Central Labor Councils with a combined memberships of 39,639 members of 212 unions in Pennsylvania.
The mission of the Northwest Pennsylvania Area Labor Federation is to improve the lives of working families—to bring economic justice to the workplace and social justice to our state and the nation. To accomplish this mission, we work to:
· Build a broad movement of Pennsylvania workers by helping workers join and form unions.
· Support Pennsylvania workers as they bargain with employers to improve their living conditions and workplaces, as well as their communities, state and nation.
· Strengthen the voice of Pennsylvania working families at all levels of government and in a changing global economy.
The Northwest Pennsylvania Area Labor Federation is a key part of the nation's largest and strongest labor federation—the AFL-CIO, which unites 10.5 million working women and men of every race and ethnicity and from every walk of life.
Take Action
Working people need laws that protect our rights to organize, keep us safe at work, and advance racial and economic justice. Tell our elected leaders to pass laws that put working people first.
The labor movement is working nonstop to ensure workers devastated by the COVID-19 pandemic receive the protections and support needed during this challenging time. Get involved and make sure the needs of working people are heard.
