Not a single officer we know of signed up for this episode of Black Mirror. We must #StandforSecurity officers and demand that human officers are not replaced with dystopian robodogs. All of our safety is at risk if we allow this to happen.
Security officers are not making enough to survive in this economy. Megan, a union security officer from San Jose, tells us the differences sheβs experienced from when she went from a non-union to a #union position! #StandForSecurity
Every worker deserves to come home safe, even if their work comes with risk. Security officers are twice as likely to die on shift than the average workerβthey deserve livable wages and quality de-escalation training. It's time to #StandforSecurity
According to a recent study from UC Berkeleyβs Labor Center, the majority of security officers make less than MITβs living wage, which means the majority of officers can hardly afford to live in the very cities that they protect. Itβs time we #StandforSecurity

Working people are tired of hearing about βrecord profitsβ while they fight for scraps and struggle to make ends meet.
Working people are hungry for change and real financial stability, and a union contract is how to make that happen! kiowacountypress.net/contentβ¦
Security officers lose sleep everyday wondering how they can continue moving forward in this economy. Itβs time we #StandforSecurity and fight for officers to be able to safely come home from work and put food on the table.

14 months after being tackled and pepper sprayed for observing an ICE raid, David Huerta is vindicated.
This attempt to weaponize the justice system against anyone who dares to defend immigrant workers collapsed because the truth, and the videos, don't lie.
To every worker, every immigrant, everyone whoβs ever been targeted: now is the time to keep organizing.

The UC Berkeley Labor Center conducted a national study and found that the demands of security officers have grown, yet the conditions under which officers work have not kept pace with those demands. Itβs time that we #StandforSecurity.

THIS is what we mean when we say weβre worth more. Our labor is worth more than a parking spot, and itβs why weβre seeing working people across industries go on strike or organize a union to demand better pay!
We cannot expect security officers to be willing to risk their lives to make a wage so unlivable that youβre likely to work two jobs. Itβs about time we #StandforSecurity and demand better pay and protections on the job!
Happy #NationalSecurityOfficerAppreciationDay to every security officer working hard to keep us safe. #StandforSecurity

Security officers deserve to come home safe after their shift. Thatβs why Local 1 Chicago member leaders have traveled to California to stand in solidarity with @seiuusww security officers fighting to raise industry standards on training and safety. #StandForSecurity #SB1203
Safe buildings start with well-trained, respected security officers. Itβs time to invest in the people who help keep our communities safe. #StandForSecurity

Security officers in NYC who DONβT have a union often have their lives upended by last minute schedule changes. (The NYC Fair Workweek Law does not apply to most security officers.)
Β
100+ NYC officers who work for Elite Investigations have signed a petition demanding that the responsibilities of their profession be matched with respect, STABILITY, and fair compensation!
Β
32BJ SEIU security members in NYC have fair scheduling protections in their union contract that require employers to offer consistent schedules.

Hakimkhalfani Webb faces danger on the job as a security officerβand faced danger on his way home due to alleged racial profiling. Black and brown security officers deserve safety and respect both on and off the job. This is why we #StandforSecurity
