Electricians

Dispatch qualified electricians and keep representation on the jobsite.

Match tickets to the call, then keep the jobsite file with the member—not the contractor.

Electrical locals fill construction, maintenance and industrial calls from a hiring hall that has to know who is ticketed for the work. Members change signatory contractors and jobsites; the union record has to follow them.

Understand the Environment

Calls distinguish construction wireman or construction electrician, industrial, maintenance, instrumentation, low-voltage and apprentice work, and they depend on a current Certificate of Qualification, Red Seal and any site-specific electrical or high-voltage tickets.

Members move among signatory electrical contractors on commercial interiors, high-rise, institutional and industrial jobs, including short maintenance or shutdown calls, so dispatch and the out-of-work list have to stay aligned with those tickets.

Jobsite representation often involves overtime and travel, scope between electrical and other trades, lockout, assignment of apprentices, and whether the person on the call held the qualification the agreement required.

Scenario

  1. A job steward stops a panel pull because two hands on the call do not have the high-voltage ticket the procedure requires.

  2. The steward records the safety stop, and the hall checks Education and People for who on the out-of-work list is actually ticketed.

  3. Hiring Hall sends replacements; Communications tells the contractor and the members still on site.

  4. Finance keeps the original dispatch and any show-up pay straight so the local is not reconciling it from a paper timesheet later.

How Union Software Helps

Hiring Hall

See who is on a shutdown call and who is on the bench when a vote or announcement has to go out.

Finance & Dues

Keep dues and any strike-fund activity on the same member records.

Education & LMS

Know who is current on the tickets a call actually requires before the dispatcher sends them.

Voting

Run the strike vote and see turnout by contractor, ticket and list status.

Strike

Turn the same lists into picket and hall-duty assignments if the vote carries.
