The Printing Packaging & Production Workers Union Merges With The IAM

The Printing Packaging & Production Workers Union of North America (PPPWU) is merging with the 600,000-Member International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAM).

PPPWU International President Israel Castro said: “I believe that together, the IAM and PPPWU will be a true force for our Members.”

PPPWU Members will be entitled to all of the many resources of the IAM, including negotiations, training, legal, communications, political and legislative, and other support.

The PPPWU and IAM represent Workers in several common industries with Collective Bargaining Agreements at many shared employers, which is a point of strength for the two Unions coming together, Representatives said.
