Union Label

Buying Union Made

The union label committee promotes the importance of purchasing products and supporting services coming from union shops and made or delivered by union members under collectively bargained for working conditions. In addition, it increases members’ awareness of those products and services produced and rendered under non-union conditions and by anti-labor manufacturers and service providers. By increasing awareness, union members can better promote those companies that provide others their union won wages and benefits.

The UAW’s 2021 Vehicle Buying Guide

These vehicles are made in the United States or Canada by members of the UAW and Canada’s Unifor union, formerly the Canadian Auto Workers (CAW). Because of the integration of vehicle production in both countries, all of the vehicles listed as made in Canada include significant UAW-made content and support the jobs of UAW members.
However, vehicles marked with a single asterisk (*) are also produced in Mexico. All heavy-duty Chevrolet Silverados and GMC Sierras will be built in Flint, Michigan, only. Light-duty Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra regular cabs are produced in Mexico only. Vehicles marked with a double asterisk (**) are the crew cab versions of the Chevrolet Silverado light-duty and GMC Sierra
light-duty trucks. Those are assembled by UAW members in Fort Wayne, Indiana, and also in Mexico. When purchasing a vehicle marked with a single or double asterisk, it’s important to check the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). A VIN beginning with “1” or “4” or “5” identifies a U.S.-made vehicle; a “2” identifies a Canadian-made vehicle; a “3” identifies a vehicle made in Mexico. Not all vehicles made in the United States or Canada are built by union-represented workers. Vehicles not listed here, even if produced in the United States or Canada, are not union made.
