A contract must be filed
whenever and wherever you
work.
Working without a contract
makes it impossible for your
union to protect you! All SSDC
Collectively Bargained Agreements
and Special Contracts protect your
property rights, right of first
refusal, and electronic rights. If
you do not file a contract, you are
giving up these rights. If you have
any questions regarding rights
and protections, contact us at
info@ssdc.org
