It was reported that Organizing Director Ray Kitson along with Local #3 Business Representatives and organizers have signed up 13 electrical contractors so far through August 2019. Many of these contractors have hired journeymen electricians from the Employment Department and most have been doing work that we have had trouble securing. Thank you to all who have helped with these efforts.

There are a number of offshore wind open house informational events hosted by NYSERDA coming up in the boroughs and we need our members to participate to ensure these offshore wind projects will lead to work opportunities for Local 3 members. If you live or work in or near these neighborhoods please make every effort to attend.
