No job is too small or too big; and with multiple pay scales we can be competitive on any project or job site.

The right of an employee to refuse to work is protected by law. When people decide to cease work (withhold their labor) in order to gain concessions from an employer, itis called a strike.

Partially because newspapers, radio and TV are inclined to publicize small and insignificant strikes out of proportion to their importance, the true facts are highly misunderstood. Anti-union companies use the word as a device to scare people away from unions.

Unions have long recognized that strikes mean serious losses to everyone and must be avoided except as a last possible resort. Local Union 72 has a section in its Working Agreement that requires all unresolved disputes be settled and be final and binding on both parties, so therefore strikes are outlawed. Arbitration means disputes are decided by an umpire.

Reasonable and fair companies have no reason to fear their own employees.
