In every state in the U.S. being in a union on average means being paid more and being more likely to have employer-provided health care and an employer-sponsored retirement plan. The Center for Economic and Policy Research’s study, “The Unions Of The States” finds the typical union member earns 15 percent more money, is 19 percent more likely to have health care provided by employers and is 24 percent more likely to have a retirement plan from an employer.
