A Union Laborer has many advantages over his non-union counterpart. First
and foremost, a Union Laborer is part of an organization whose goal is to
provide good wages, benefits and safe working conditions for all of its
members. The Laborers International Union of North America (LIUNA) strives
to maintain that goal each and every day. Assurance that a fair and competitive wage has been negotiated for him/her
is another advantage of Union Labor. Individuals are guaranteed a wage that
will allow him or her to provide shelter, food, clothing and education for
their family. A wage that will help them enjoy a high standard of living. Benefits, such as health insurance and a pension, are also a part of the
Laborer's Union package. Health insurance provides peace-of-mind to a
worker. Hospital and doctor bills should not become a burden on family
finances. A pension plan is necessary for a person to retire with
confidence that he/she does not have to fear financial problems. Finally, a Union Laborer has the advantage of getting the appropriate
training for his job. Safety and skills training is provided for free for
all Union Laborers through facilties such as the Laborers' Training Center. Union Brotherhood, great wages, benefits and training are the corner stones
of what makes a Union Laborer job a smart choice. TOP
