*****ATTENTION*****
Only six days remain for individuals to submit comment regarding the attack on registered apprenticeship programs through the proposed Industry Recognized Apprenticeship Programs (IRAPs).  It is critical that the construction industry remain exempt from this shortsighted proposal and hopefully our comments will result in the  construction industry being permanently exempted.  Failure will result in the lowering of standards we have spent decades building.

Brothers and Sisters,
The Department of Labor has proposed a new regulation (IRAP) that would help non-union contractors establish apprenticeship programs that would not be to subjected to many of the same requirements that our DOL apprenticeships have.  A website has been set up so we can all express our concerns. Click on WWW.SAVEIBEWAPPRENTICESHIPS.ORG to be directed to the website. All submissions are due by August 26th. It is imperative that we get as many of our members to submit their concerns and help us protect what we have all worked so hard for. ​

Who We Are

The International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) is a labor union which represents nearly 750,000 workers and retirees in the electrical industry in the United States, Canada, Panama, Guam and several Caribbean island nations; particularly electricians, or inside wiremen, in the construction industry and linemen and other employees of public utilities. The union also represents some workers in the computer, telecommunications, broadcasting, and other fields related to electrical work. It was founded in 1891 shortly after homes and businesses in the United States began receiving electricity. Its international president is Lonnie R. Stephenson. The IBEW is affiliated with the AFL-CIO.
