Survey of Professionals
The Department for Professional Employees, AFL-CIO commissioned Clarity Campaign Labs to do a survey of non-union professional and technical employees. The survey was conduced in the summer of 2022. The survey explored professional employees’ potential support for unionization efforts, along with their positive and negative perceptions of union membership. DPE sought to understand professionals’ concerns about unions, and also to test the persuasive power of information and messages that might lead professionals to increase their support for union representation at their places of work. We were also able to develop more detailed information about particular groups of professionals, which has helped affiliates craft more detailed organizing messages.
