Here’s a “first”, we believe, for members of a Hawaii construction union.

In effect since November 27 is the opportunity UA Local 675 members have to use their personal credit card to pay their membership dues. Cards acceptable are Visa, MasterCard, Discover, JCB, and American Express.

In addition, the card may also be used as a form of payment at the Training Center in Pearl City for training-related expenses.

“We welcome members to take advantage of this new convenient and valuable service,” invites business manager Reginald Castanares. Any questions on the credit card use may be called in to 536-5454.
