Women Join UBC as Associate Members: 1916 – 1935

Posted OnJanuary 23, 2020 byadmin

The United Brotherhood of Carpenters merged with the Union of Box Makers in 1916. This merger lead to the slow start for the creation of women’s rights within the UBC. While the UBC did not recognize women as members the Boxmakers did. Delegates voted in 1916 to classify women as associate members. Women were not provided full rights as union members until the UBC made the decision to rectify this wrong in 1935.
