By signing the Available-for-Work List, you are indicating your interest in receiving representation from one of the most powerful and progressive labor organizations in North America and will have the advantage of the protection and benefits of an IBEW Collective Bargaining Agreement.

‍Roll Call will take place on a quarterly basis in January, April, July and October. You will be registered for work for the quarter in which you sign only, and as of the first working day of the following quarter your name will be removed from the List unless you indicate your continuing interest by following the Hiring Hall Rules regarding “Roll Call.” Manpower Requests are assigned to the first qualified applicant, in order of registration.

Once you have accepted employment by referral from the Available-for-Work List you will be required to pay an Admission Fee within a specific time. The amount of the fee and the time period may vary as dictated by the specific language in the contract under which you will work.

‍Colorado is not a Right-to-Work state; therefore, you will be obligated to pay your fair share of the expense of representation by the Local Union (a non-profit organization subject to federal audit). Or pay an equal share as an Agency Fee Payer to support the collective bargaining process. Once you have become a member, you will have certain rights and obligations, which are the foundation of our great organization. Generally, the cost of dues is less than what you are accustomed to paying for health insurance premiums, which are usually paid for in IBEW collective bargaining agreements along with pension and various other benefits of membership in the IBEW. You will have the opportunity to progress in the industry by taking advantage of available Apprenticeships or upgrade training provided to you for the cost of your monthly dues enabling you to earn while you learn.

All bargaining unit new hires must join the Union or pay an equal share as an Agency Fee Payer to support the Collective Bargaining process within a prescribed amount of time, identified by law from their date of hire. The admission fee for “A” type membership is $52.00. 

Monthly dues for “A” members are $54.70, payment is due on the first day of each month.  Monthly dues payments are a personal responsibility. No reminder will be sent. Any member found to be in excess of three (3) months in arrears will be sent a letter informing them that they are being charged a reinstatement fee of $30.00 plus all past dues to date. Arrearage in excess of six (6) months will result in a letter being sent to their employer requiring the employee’s immediate termination.

‍A 1.9% working assessment is automatically deducted from each “A” member’s gross pay, or 2% for those working under the Pathways Project. These funds are paid directly to the Local Union by the Employer and are the financial base for the operation of the Local Union.
