Why Union Free

Sysco is pro-colleague and customer, not anti-union.

Avoiding unions is, however, a worthwhile objective because:

Union avoidance is not a primary goal. It is the end product of good colleague practices administered consistently by effective managers and front line supervisors.

By insuring that sound colleague practices – employee communications, hiring, training, safety, work assignments, and pro‐active action steps – are administered consistently, colleagues do not need a third party to represent them.

The Top 9 Reasons to Vote "No"

We respect our colleagues' lawful right to choose or reject union representation. However, we believe that our colleagues don't need a union to represent them.

1. We believe that unionization is NOT in the best interest of our colleagues.
2. We prefer to deal with our colleagues directly rather than through a third party.
3. We encourage colleagues and management to work together to solve problems and create a good working environment.
4. We deal with our colleagues openly, honestly, fairly and without discrimination, treating each person with the dignity and respect they deserve.
5. No organization is free from day-to-day problems, but we believe we have the policies, practices and personnel to help resolve issues, without the intervention of outsiders.
6. Unions don't add value to our business and there is a risk of getting called out on strike. In addition to loss of wages and benefits during an economic strike, in certain circumstances, colleagues can be lawfully permanently replaced.
7. The presence of a union would change relationships between managers, supervisors and colleagues. A contract could force colleagues to go through a union steward instead of talking directly with management on workplace issues.
8. With a union, all current wages, benefits, and working conditions are subject to negotiations. Colleagues could end up with more, the same as they started with, or even wind up with less. There are no guarantees.
9. Wages and benefits are reviewed annually at our company. If a union represents our colleagues, a multi-year collective bargaining agreement could prevent us from making changes each year, even if those changes would benefits colleagues.
