Code of Performance
Members of LIUNA are known for bringing more to the work site than their Union cards. Laborers built our Union by delivering experience in the field, skills for the job, pride in their work and a strong safety-conscious work ethic. To sustain these qualities in current and future members and for the benefit of our contractors, LIUNA has adopted a Code of Performance for its members and officers. The goal of the Code of Performance is to ensure that our members meet the highest standards and exceed the expectations of our contractors. Member responsibilities under the Code include:
- Developing skills through apprenticeship and training programs
- Being ready, willing and able to work on time
- Knowing and following the Local Union's job referral rules
- Avoiding excessive absenteeism and tardiness
- Following direction from supervisors
- Giving a fair day's work
- Treating the tools and property of others with respect
- Using established procedure to avoid disputes
- Working safely; using safety equipment and following safe practices
Following these standards will ensure that we can provide a workforce that makes contractors and project owners want to employ our members.
