Working
class people are currently facing tough economic times, even more so in
the construction industry which has been the backbone of the American
economy.
During these
trying times, Representatives and Officers of the Carpenters Union are
working hard campaigning to be a positive force for economic change in
America and we need your help. As a union member, you have a voice and
the ability to make a difference in your trade as well in your local
communities.
Being
a union member not only enables you to make a decent wage and provide
important benefits for yourself and your family, such as medical care
and a comfortable retirement, but it also ensures your human right to work with dignity and respect.
Representatives of the Carpenters Union are trained to represent you
and protect your rights, your health and your safety on the job. The
Carpenters Union encourages all members to be masters of their crafts.
As such, all of our valued members are able to consistently renew and
enhance their skills through the apprentice training program and journeyman upgrading classes.
We encourage you to get involved with your local union, attend
meetings and get to know your union representatives, so that you can
play an active role in moving our country forward. |
