United Food and Commercial Workers – Workers Compensation Lawyer

The Law Office of James M. Hoffmann represents injured employees who belong to the United Food and Commercial Workers Union.

Approximately 1.3 million people work in the United Food and Commercial Workers Union, which represents retail, grocery, food processing, and meatpacking workers in the U.S. and Canada.

This industry is associated with a wide variety of hazards, including slip-and-fall injuries, food-borne illnesses, and repetitive use injuries.

The UFCW in Missouri

In Missouri, there are 8 unions for the United Food and Commercial Workers: Local 655, Local 796, Local 887, Local 432, Local 2, Local 871, Local 81, and Local 88.

The UFCW was formed in 1979, but the industries that make up this union have a very long history with the early stages of trade unionism in the U.S. and Canada.

What is Workers Compensation?

U.S. employers and their employees rely on our dependable workers’ compensation system to resolve vocational injuries and disease disputes and provide for related worker needs. Workers’ compensation benefits are commonly awarded for a work-related injury, illness, and death, helping to meet injured workers’ and their families’ needs even when faced with overwhelming situations.

The workplace is one of the most common places where people are injured, and Missouri has rules in place that are supposed to support and help people who have suffered an on-the-job injury.
