Platform Updates

eMembership gets better
twice a year. At no extra cost.

eMembership ships two releases per year. Local labor unions on the platform receive every enhancement automatically, with no upgrade fees, no new contracts, and no disruption to existing workflows.
Our Commitment

A living platform for
a changing labor movement

Labor unions need software that grows with them. That is why eMembership is not a static product. It is a system under active development, with two releases per year driven by client feedback, regulatory changes, and the evolving needs of local labor unions. Every enhancement is included in your subscription at no additional charge.

Two releases per year

eMembership ships new features twice a year, developed in direct response to how local labor unions use the platform. Clients see the results in their live system without having to ask for them.

No additional cost

Enhancements are included in your existing eMembership subscription. There are no upgrade tiers, no feature add-ons to purchase, and no per-seat fees that change as your membership grows.

Built from client feedback

The eMembership roadmap is shaped by the unions that use the platform. If your local has a need, we want to hear about it. Many of the most valuable features in the platform started as a request from one client and now benefit all of them.

Latest Release Highlights

Recent enhancements to
the eMembership platform

The most recent eMembership release included improvements across security, communications, reporting, and data management. Here is a summary of what changed for local labor unions currently on the platform.
Smarter outreach
Bulk email export gives administrators a reliable way to reach all members quickly, even when external email systems are unavailable. Built for time-sensitive moments like strike votes and urgent safety notices.
Stronger data security
New dashboard controls let administrators define exactly which staff roles can view sensitive member information, giving locals tighter control over who sees what.
Better reporting
Enhanced reporting options across multiple modules give staff faster access to the answers they need without waiting on custom report requests or manual data exports.
Organizing tools
County and political district lookups help organizing staff segment and contact members by geography, making mobilization and advocacy campaigns more precise and effective.

What's Coming

The next release is already
in development

The following capabilities are scheduled for the next eMembership release. As with every update, these enhancements will be delivered automatically to all clients at no additional cost.
New Feature

Stronger account security

Enterprise-grade password requirements, complexity rules, and expiration policies protect your union's data. Streamlined user administration makes onboarding and offboarding staff faster for your local's administrators.

New Feature

Multi-document upload

Upload batches of documents in a single action across Employers, Contracts, and Projects. No more uploading one file at a time when processing applications, contract renewals, or project documentation.

New Feature

Notes and follow-up reminders

Add follow-up tasks directly to notes and have them surface on your home dashboard automatically. When the action is complete, mark it done. Nothing falls through the cracks between staff meetings or rep visits.

Enhancement

Faster dashboard loading

Large union databases generate large dashboard queries. Smart caching refreshes your most-used dashboards on a schedule so the data you need is always ready when you open the system, not loading while you wait.

Enhancement

Role-based field security for reports

Sensitive fields like Social Security Number and Date of Birth can now be restricted by staff role within the Query Builder. Unions with shared access environments can enforce the right level of data visibility for each team member.

Enhancement

Configurable email templates

System-generated emails such as call log notices and credential reset messages will be fully editable by your administrators. Every automated message your members and staff receive can reflect your local's voice.

Features listed are planned for the upcoming release and are subject to change based on client priorities and development schedule.

Common Questions

Frequently asked questions about
local labor union software

A local labor union management platform is a software system purpose-built to handle the administrative and operational needs of a union local.

The typical starting point is a short intro call with David Stone, eMembership's sales representative. That conversation covers your union's current software and workflows, and determines whether a full platform demo makes sense. If eMembership is a strong fit, the next step is a Discovery Project that scopes the implementation before any contract is signed.
