We are here for you

When you decided to become a Federal Employee, you committed your time and effort to support the well-being and operation of this country. Without government, needs go unmet and day-to-day operations and civil order fail. You show up and work hard, day in and day out. Your long-term contributions are the backbone of what makes this nation great.

Your commitment and contributions shouldn’t be taken advantage of or go unnoticed, which is why we are here for you. Organizations work best when accountability is applied at every level, and when you have the right for your voice to be heard for a safe work environment and correct information on critical benefits and programs.

The NTEU Chapter 128 mission is to be a primary resource for navigating employee rights, benefits, and the contract while accurately representing its constituents in ongoing agreements, legislative issues, and personal grievances.

Department of Labor Standards of Conduct: Know your rights and your union’s responsibilities under the Civil Service Reform Act of 1978.

I want to extend my deepest gratitude to the NTEU team for their exceptional support throughout the process of getting my telework approved. Their commitment and professionalism were evident every step of the way. I am especially thankful for Lakenya Garland, whose dedication and expertise made a significant difference. Her guidance and persistence were invaluable, and I truly appreciate all her hard work. Thank you, NTEU, for standing by me and making this possible.

Supplemental FLSA Payment Wow! What a pleasant surprise! I had no idea that I was owed anything. I am so grateful for the NTEU Chapter 128 and all they do on behalf of its members. It feels good knowing you are hard at work on our behalf- even when we don’t realize it! Thanks again!

I was denied a reasonable accommodation for my disability from my organization’s leadership. NTEU Chapter 128 went to work immediately, and without their unwavering support and expertise in disability regulations I would have been unable to perform my job duties to the best of my ability. My upmost thanks and appreciation to NTEU stewards who advocate for me and all other bargaining unit members who are being treated unfairly.

When I started out with my issues I was having with my management, I felt overwhelmed and didn’t know who to turn to regarding my grievances. I was informed to reach out to NTEU Chapter 128 for some guidance. The support I received was amazing in my time of need!! My union representatives, LaKenya Renee Garland and Renee Rawls, listened, guided, and fought for me and my problems to get them resolved in a timely manner.

I had the privilege of working with Lakenya Garland, and it was an incredibly uplifting experience. For the first time, I felt truly supported and advocated for. I hadn’t expected to receive this level of support, and I’m immensely grateful that I did. Thanks to Lakenya, I was inspired to join and support Chapter 128.
