The Carpenters' Bill of Rights and Responsibilities is simple, direct, and fair.

Our Bill of Rights says: Here's what we believe. Here's what we stand for. Here are the basic rights of every working carpenter–union and non-union.

But with rights come responsibilities–and no one knows that better than we do. We know that it is the responsibility of every carpenter to provide a good day's work and to produce a craftsman's product in return.

All working people have a right to

·  A good job with benefits

·  A living wage that can support a family

·  Security and dignity in work and retirement

·  A safe and secure workplace

·  Education and training to reach our full potential

With rights come responsibilities

·  Being productive, efficient workers

·  Producing work of the highest quality—work that we stand behind

·  Improving our communities

·  Helping fellow workers achieve safety and security in the workplace

·  Being active citizens and informed voters
