Our Commitment to Diversity

Diversity drives innovation and is the pipeline to the future success of our union.

That’s why we’re committed to supporting diversity, equity and inclusion throughout our apprenticeship programs and beyond.

 



The construction industry has experienced a cultural shift in recent years, and we’re embracing those changes that will make us a more efficient and effective workforce. There are no limits on recruiting the best talent into our programs. No matter who you are — there’s a place for you at Local 25 to learn valuable skills and find a high-paying career. We welcome a gender-diverse and culturally-diverse workforce and strive to create and uphold a safe, productive environment for all.

What you need to know:

  • Equal pay for equal work for all brothers and sisters
  • No pay gap based on ethnicity, gender or culture
  • Gender-diverse brotherhood and sisterhood
  • Culturally-diverse brotherhood and sisterhood
  • Committment to safe and productive environments
