Membership Dues
Each member of Local Union #72 pays $28.00 per month in Union dues. Each member also pays a 2% Working Assessment when the member is working for a union contractor. Does that seem like alot?
Compare: A Union journeyman earning 28.90 per hour receives an additional $12.91 per hour of benefits and A Non-union journeyman earning 20.00 per hour pays $2.00 per hour for benefits…

| Benefits/hour | 12.91 | - 2.00 |
