Benefits for AFGE Members

When you join the union, you have access to these AFGE benefits. These benefits are backed by the collective strength of over 10-million members of AFL-CIO unions. By using one or two of the programs, many members save as much as their annual dues.

These Money-Saving Benefits are Available Only to AFGE Members:

Federal Job Search

AFGE members have free access to thousands of Federal government job openings through a special "portal" designed and maintained specifically for AFGE by Avue Technologies. This portal is designed to make sure members can see all jobs currently available, and to also be notified when any job meeting a members’ career and geographical location interests opens in the future. Members will also find that the site contains plenty of information to help make them a better job applicant. For Federal Agencies that are Avue clients, members will even be able to apply directly on-line, learn immediately whether they meet basic qualifications, and track their progress 24/7. The online AVUE process is fair, objective, transparent, and provides "on the merits" consideration of all interested candidates. 

AFGE joined forces with Avue Technologies because it is a firm highly regarded for its aggressive innovation and advocacy on behalf of federal government workers and its association with federal agencies that are seeking the broadest possible outreach to promote diversity in hiring.

Through this partnership, AFGE members have direct access to Avue's customer base of over 25 Federal departments and agencies representing an estimated workforce of over 1,682,985 employees. Through the AFGE employment site portal members are able to access and apply for Federal job opportunities and receive notification of opportunities of interest.

For agencies that are clients of Avue Digital Services(tm), members are able to expedite their application directly to these agencies and monitor progress through the selection process on a 365/24/7 basis.

For agencies that are not yet Avue clients, members are able to automatically generate and print a hard copy resume from a "base profile" maintained on line. In addition, the site provides our members with a wide range of expert information with respect to the entire spectrum of employee relations, EEO, Civil Rights, and other workforce management issues.
