Services
Our members are well-organized and well-represented, and because of this they enjoy the wages, benefits, retirement and job security that provide a decent living for them and their families. As a completely member-owned and member-operated organization, we understand that our members approach their work as career professionals, which is why we offer top-notch apprenticeship and ongoing training programs to ensure they are the best-trained, safest and most-skilled workers in the industry.
With the collective influence of over 37,000 members throughout our four-state jurisdiction (California, Nevada, Utah and Hawaii), our membership has the ability and resources to effectively mobilize in support of working people and in opposition to anti-labor extremism. At a time when both are necessary to protect the standard of living of America's middle-class, we are proud to be on the front lines representing the Voice of the Engineer (VOTE).Below are the union's recommendations so far. Please check back here, in your Engineers News and in the mail for more recommendations.

Today, the award-winning, 32-page, full-color magazine, Engineers News, is just another example of Local 3's commitment to keeping its 35,000+ members informed.
