Campaign Updates
The Worker Center has supported numerous worker organizing drives since its creation. Here are updates on our work:
ResStaff Allied Organization (RAO) at the University of Michgan
The Worker Center supported the rank-and-file organizing of student residential staff (ResStaff) at the University of Michigan - Ann Arbor (U-M) during their unionization drive in the 2023-24 academic year.
ResStaff won their union election in August 2024 by an overwhelming margin of 148-8, becoming the first labor union representing undergraduate student workers at U-M. RAO is an independent union and is currently bargaining for a first contract. Find RAO at its Website, Instagram, and Twitter.
