Minority Caucus

This committee is established to discuss and act on the specific concerns and needs from the minority portion of our membership.

LMC Committee

Rhode Island Labor-Management Cooperative Committee is a panel comprised of members of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local 99 and members of the Rhode Island and Southeast Massachusetts Chapter of the National Electrical Contractors Association.  The sole purpose of this committee is to promote sustainable, harmonious relations between management and labor in the complex world of electrical construction.  With this commitment, the committee actively works towards our common goals of advancing our trade in the areas of:  customer satisfaction, safety, craftsmanship, renewable energy, healthy working partnerships and community service. The commitment to these goals rely proudly on our unyielding foundation, which is our Institute of Higher Education known as the Joint Apprenticeship and Training Committee.

 

Brotherhood Fund

The purpose of this committee is to raise funds to support our brothers and sisters in need.  Specifically, if a member is ill or facing extreme finacial hardship. If funds are available, the committee will offer the member a donation to help them through a rough patch.
