Union membership in the U.S. has dropped to the lowest recorded rate since 1983, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The rate dropped to 10.1% in 2022, down from 10.3% in 2021.
The agency found that the union membership rate fell to 10.1% in 2022, down from 10.3% in 2021. It explained that the drop was attributed to the increase in the total number of wage and salary workers, most of whom didn't belong to a union, outpacing the increase in the number of workers belonging to one.
"This disproportionately large increase in the number of total wage and salary employment compared with the increase in the number of union members led to a decrease in the union membership rate," the report said.
