Community > Major Employers

More than 300 businesses operate in the community and our top ten employers account for over 2,200 jobs or about half of the local workforce.

While retail is a growing industry in Union, the community has a long tradition of being a center of manufacturing activity in Franklin County. Likewise, there is a strong employment base involved in public administration, education and all-types of construction.
