Quote 


Although it is true that only about 20 percent of American workers are in unions, that 20 percent sets the standards across the board in salaries, benefits and working conditions. If you are making a decent salary in a non-union company, you owe that to the unions. One thing that corporations do not do is give out money out of the goodness of their hearts.
--Molly Ivins
 
 
The Denver Newspaper Guild is a union of employees of the Denver Post and the Denver Newspaper Agency. The Guild negotiates contracts, ensures that those contracts are honored, and strives to make our workplace the best it can be, just as our counterparts do in more than 100 cities in the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico. For more than 60 years the Guild has worked for good wages and benefits, fair working conditions, and a voice on the job. Our membership is a diverse group, but has a common bond in the belief that respect for workers rights builds stronger jobs and stronger communities.
