If you are a union member or potential member, in case you didn't know it, someone has been working on your behalf to make important information available to you.  You may know of the Labor Project for Working Families -- a fantastic advocacy organization that has lead the charge for union members and helped create all kinds of flexibility and related benefits.  These same folks have just created a terrific new resource that includes a national database of information for people who want to understand their rights.  It also has contract language and laws related to bargaining for these benefits, current laws that impact bargaining, case studies, and bargaining techniques.  It's a free online resource network -- the "Labor Education & Resource Network" (LEARN) and can also help anyone working to create a similar benefit somewhere else.  

We're very interested in keeping you informed of the latest and greatest, so if you have other resources that can help folks who need to work in flexible ways, we encourage you to post them here as well.  If you've been able to benefit from working flexibly and what to share your story or your comment about what you've learned along the way, that's great, too.

Help us spread the word.
