For RWDSU Local 3, knowledge isn’t just power – it’s protection. At Bloomingdale’s 59th Street flagship store, the leadership team—President, Shaun Kavanagh, Secretary-Treasurer, James Eisenberg, and the Executive Board—make sure every member has their own copy of the union contract and understands what it means for them on the job. Although they do this every month, summer is especially crucial with many recent graduates entering the workforce and preparations already underway for a busy fall season, as holiday sales start earlier each year.
Today, the RWDSU commemorates the implementation of the Retail Worker Safety Act (RWSA), effective June 4, 2025. This landmark legislation, championed by RWDSU, introduces critical safety measures to protect retail workers across the state.
RWDSU Local 1102 members at Animal Care Centers (ACC) of New York City—those on the front lines of caring for the city’s most vulnerable pets and strays—have won a new three-year union contract that reflects their essential work and unwavering compassion.
