Our Labor Legacy
There are not many organizations that can claim labor roots dating back to the early 1900s. The Amalgamated Family of Companies can. Even before our company began, our future founder, Sidney Hillman, sought to raise the standard of living for working people. In 1914, he established the Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America which subsequently became one of America’s fastest growing unions. In 1943, he founded Amalgamated Life Insurance Company, the flagship organization of the Amalgamated Family of Companies. Its mission was then as it is today:
Mission Statement
We are dedicated to helping working people and their families achieve financial security by providing affordable life, health and pension products and services while maintaining an unwavering commitment to excellence.
Today, we have expanded our organization and its offerings. We are a national organization consisting of five related companies, all delivering solutions that are effectively meeting the needs of unions and their members.
