Why Join?
Our top of the line wage and benefit package that includes:
- $42.97 an hour wage journeyman wage rate on every job, public and private
- $9.32 an hour paid by your employer into the Health & Welfare fund on your behalf
- $6.13 an hour paid by your employer into the pension fund on your behalf
- $4.08 an hour paid by your employer into your annuity plan
What this means is you and your family are covered by 100% employer paid medical plan that is completely portable from signatory contractor to signatory contractor.
It also means you and your family won't be pinching pennies in your golden years and can enjoy a worry free retirement thanks to our two retirement plans. The pension plan pays you a set amount every month for every year of eligible service. And it usually only takes about five years to vest in the pension plan. You vest immediately in the annuity plan that gives you a choice of 8 mutual funds, ranging from conservative to aggressive, to invest the money paid by the employer into your personal account.
And finally, it means taking home some of the top wages in the industry.
You work hard. Don't you and your family deserve the good wages and benefits and the secure future that come with union membership? Contact Local 12 Organizer John Stack at 617-288-6200 x148 or JStack@Local12Boston.org . For more information on joining the union, please fill out the form below.
