Los Angeles AFA Office

The LAX AFA Office requires escort onto airport property. If you'd like to be a part of our local AFA Office Activists, or want to meet with your local AFA Activists & Volunteers, please call first to ensure someone is available to escort you in.

We're always looking for more involvement by you - our membership. Don't wait to be asked...come and get onboard with our careers and our future.

We invite you to come visit us - learn why AFA Activists & Volunteers do what we do. Click HERE for more reasons why YOU too, should get involved in OUR Union!

The Importance Of Union Membership

The logic of the Trade Union movement is a simple one and is the same everywhere. The main role of a Union is to defend the interests of the employee, who by nature of the corporate environment is the weaker party in an employment contract. For most employees the labor market is generally a buyer's market.

Except in highly specialized occupations, employers have an almost unfettered right and opportunity to choose the employees who get hired and to define the scope of their duties at work.

It is only through mutual cooperation and solidarity that employees can begin to compensate for this natural advantage of the employer. By negotiating collectively with the employer, workers can meet their employers on a more equal footing.

The strength of the Union lies in its members and can be measured by their participation in its affairs and by their awareness of the Union's role in their lives.

Membership participation and awareness don't just grow - they must be cultivated. Workers need to be informed & engaged, get involved and must always be aware of the importance of vigilant enforcement of their Contract and their rights on the job.

We Are The Union!
