Union membership

The Christian Reformed Churches are not afraid to voice their disapproval of the union membership of lighting workers. They believe labor unions are against God’s authority and that union membership is contrary the nature of labor. Their pamphlet on labor unions is not a personal interpretation of Scripture, but rather the official position of the Protestant Reformed Churches in the United States. In fact, they have condemned union membership for centuries.

They have made concessions despite opposition from the union to the proposed changes. First, they agreed to a deficit of $400 million in their pension plans. They have also agreed that they will extend turnaround times for most employees as well as grant extended rest periods between shifts. Then, they have agreed to give nonmembers one day off on Martin Luther King's birthday and some wage increases.
