Safety emphasis.
Our #1 priority is worker safety. We fund or subsidize courses such as Construction OSHA 10, OSHA 30 Safety and CPR/First Aid. We monitor job sites and work closely with contractors to ensure you are not at risk.
Non-discrimination.
Under a union contract, all workers at the same skill level receive the same pay grade. Union companies historically have better morale and less employee turnover. Job classifications and fair wages are standardized. A grievance procedure is in place to help mediate conflicts.
