After voting to unionize, you and your coworkers will come together and negotiate your first union contract with your employer. This contract, also known as a collective bargaining agreement, is the sum of all the things that you will agree to over the course of this negotiations process.
Unions and collective bargaining more broadly seek to negotiate better terms for their members. Usually, this concerns wages, working conditions, job security, and other resources or professional opportunities (Kochan et al., 2019). In many ways, nursing unions resemble organized labor in other sectors.

The Union Membership and Coverage Database, available at .unionstats, is an Internet data resource providing private and public sector labor union membership, coverage, and density estimates compiled from the monthly household Current Population Survey (CPS) using BLS methods.
From this page, you can search for and view reports filed by unions, union officers and employees, employers, and labor relations consultants for the year 2000 and after. For help navigating the Online Public Disclosure Room, please contact OLMS at 202-693-0123 or olms-public@dol.

Under federal labor law, every member has a right to the contract they work under, as well as a copy of the IBT constitution and their local union bylaws. We suggest you send a letter (perhaps certified mail) to your local requesting your contract. You may want to have a number of co-workers sign on to the letter.
Private sector contracts do not have to be made available to the public. Your union does have to provide you access to CBAs that you work under.
A union gives RNs the legal right to advocate as a collective for contracts that ensure safe working conditions, protect nurses' rights, and improve wages and benefits so that we can focus on what we do best: caring for our patients.
