In a 388-130 vote, we have won our union election with a near 75% majority! A massive thank you to everyone who supported us along the way. Here’s to a brighter future!

PART 2 of 2: who is the real third party? We took a look at HBG’s recent LM-20 report, a mandatory and public disclosure form required by the U.S. Department of Labor l. Here’s what we found, and what this means for all of us. We know what we’re worth.

Be sure to join us at a special UNIONS IN PUBLISHING AMA co-hosted by our friends at the university of Chicago Press Workers Guild and featuring employees from HarperCollins, Verso, Abrams, and other unionized publishing houses!

Our election date has been set! The NLRB ultimately decided that the election will be a hybrid format consisting of manual (in-person) voting for any employees assigned to the NYC office, and mail-in ballot voting for everyone else (if you work remotely or report to an office outside of NYC).

Part 2/2: What could we win in a contract is up to us. Join us this Thursday, 5/21 to attend HWC’s how we win forum. Sign up for the event at the link in our bio (HBG employees only!)

Part 1/2: Our goal is simple: secure what we have & build off of what we want & deserve. Our unionized friends are proof that that this (and more) is possible. What about that we could WIN? We won’t accept a contract that offers less than what we know we deserve, so we invite everyone to dream BIG.

Part 2 of 2: As per of their ‘Vote No’ campaign, HBG recently contracted the services of LRI consulting. Here’s what we learned about one of the most prolific and expensive union-busting firms in the country.

An update from our campaign. We remain steadfast in our goals and look forward to getting to the bargaining table.

Part 2 of 2: when workers organize, management pushes back bc they don’t want to give up their power to make unilateral decisions about our benefits and working conditions. Remember: the union is not an outside party, it’s ALL OF US! Be a part of union democracy in action.

Part 1 of 2: Let’s play a game of union bingo! Union busting is an old, tired playbook, and HBG has been caught taking directly from it. We’ve taken the liberty of circling the tactics HBG is using so far, so let’s go through them one by one.

HBG has launched their anti-union campaign by spreading anti-union flyers via our company portal and common spaces. The flyers use tired talking points, framing the union as a third party that will harm our existing benefits & workplace culture. But the union is all of us, & we won’t be intimidated

May 5th: Today we learned that HBG is denying to voluntarily recognize our union. To put it simply, HBG is union busting. HBG had opportunities to address worker concerns over the years. Now, it’s time for a democratically elected seat at the table. The union is YOU. The union is ALL OF US.
