Since federal OSHA’s New Directions in Worker Training funding in the late 1970s, unions have produced a variety of brochures, fact sheets, manuals, and posters in Spanish. There is a lot of variability in quality and user-friendliness in Spanish translation of these union publications. Compared with the government publications, the union publications tend to have more graphics that are not as “serious” as the governmental ones (they are more likely to be in a cartoon style). The unions that have been most active in this area are:

• Union of Needletrades,

• Industrial and Textile Employees (UNITE)

• International Ladies Garment Workers Union (ILGWU)

• Amalgamated Clothing and Textile Workers Union (ACTU) (The ILGWU and the ACTU came together to form UNITE about five years ago.)

• International Union of United Automobile

• Aerospace and Agricultural Implement Workers of America (UAW)

• Canadian Auto Workers Union

• Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU)

• United Food and Commercial Workers (UFCW)

• Service Employees International Union (SEIU)

• American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME)

• Laborers International Union of North America (LIUNA)

• Glass, Pottery, Plastics and Allied Workers Union (GPPAWU).
