Unions and Associations
The principal union for cooks and chefs, and other food service workers is UNITE HERE, https://unitehere.org (affiliated with the AFL-CIO). Membership in organizations such as the American Culinary Federation also can be a valuable resource, providing certification, educational information, and opportunities to network with others during conventions and conferences.
