People is the membership
Status, unit, worksite, classification, steward assignment, consent, good standing, applicant types.
By Need
Membership engagement and growth
A member who cannot be reached, a worksite with no steward, a notice that missed the new initiate — that is a growth problem, not a slogan.
Union Software is built for the collective bargaining economy — the local, the unit, the hall, the board — not for an employer HR stack. Engagement here is list, coverage, message, path.
How the week runs in the software
People holds members, applicants, and steward assignment. Communications sends to a current segment. Education & LMS holds the new-member path.
The software answers who can be reached, where coverage is thin, whether the last notice landed, and whether a new member was invited.
How Union Software helps
Segments stay live
Saved audiences update. Walk lists and sends do not rot.
Coverage is assignable
Steward by worksite, classification, unit, effective date.
Communications hits that audience
Email, SMS, voice.
Education is the welcome and the steward path
Completion on the person. Authorization cards remain campaign/legal work. This page does not invent a card-check module.
The list the whole local trusts
Office, organizer, and President have three counts. Initiates and withdrawals do not match.
Bring the roster to one People import or cleanup — status, unit, worksite, contact.
Align standing with dues already applied so “member” means the same thing in finance.
Build a membership count view the board will reuse.
Save a live segment per worksite for every later send.

Get StartedQuestions they actually ask
How do I see steward coverage?
Filter People by worksite and assignment. Empty coverage is a field on those records.
How does a new member get the path?
People holds the member. Education & LMS holds orientation. Communications sends the invite.
How is turnout counted?
Communications sends to a current People segment and keeps the sent count on that list.
Does this store digital cards?
No. People holds applicants and notes. Showing of interest stays campaign work.
How does standing affect a vote list?
Finance & Dues applies remittances. People carries standing. Voting reads that standing.
