Union workers enjoy comprehensive and affordable family healthcare. The IBEW negotiates strong health benefits, so workers can access the care they need without worrying about the costs.
Union workers enjoy stronger retirement security than their nonunion counterparts. In fact, nearly 100% of union members have retirement benefits through their job.
The IBEW takes pride in being the best-trained workforce around, and we are committed to ensuring that all our members have the chance to grow professionally. The IBEW offers the most comprehensive training in the entire electrical industry, which means more career opportunities for you.
Union members make more money. On average, union workers make nearly 20% more than nonunion workers according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. That’s because a union contract gives workers the power to make sure they are paid their fair share.
An IBEW contract means protection for your job. Unions help safeguard you against arbitrary employer actions. They also mean the power to fight for a better work-life balance.
When workers come together as one, they gain a voice at work, with a say in wages, benefits, and work rules. Without a union, everything from your paycheck to scheduling is at the whim of management. But collective bargaining gives you power.
