ARE YOU REALLY
PROTECTED?
YOU INSURE YOUR HOUSE. YOUR CAR.
YOUR HEALTH. YOUR LIFE.
WHAT ABOUT YOUR JOB?
SO MUCH DEPENDS ON IT.
SHOULDN'T YOU INSURE IT, TOO?

AFSCME IS JOB INSURANCE FOR CLERICALS AND
SECRETARIES AT UM.
It's an investment for the
PRESENT: Fair salaries and working conditions.
and for the
FUTURE: Health and retirement benefits to make
you and your family feel secure. And protec-
tion from layoffs.
AFSCME IS THE AMERICAN FEDERATION OF STATE,
COUNTY AND MUNICIPAL EMPLOYEES.
It's a union representing a million public employees
nationwide. AFSCME's job is to help its members achieve
and maintain good salaries, benefits and working con-
ditions.
HOW DO WE DO IT?
WE START WITH A CONTRACT.
Without a contract, you have no control over your wages,
your benefits or your ability to move into a better job.
That's not much in the way of financial security.
AS AN AFSCME MEMBER, YOU DECIDE WHAT YOU NEED
AND DESERVE. Then you elect a bargaining team to get it.
You and your bargaining unit will have plenty of expertise
to back you up. You'll have a team of economists and com-
puterized information from thousands of contract
situations behind you. Now, THAT'S SMART FINACNIAL
PLANNING.
