After many hours, days and months of negotiations on a new collective bargaining agreement between the Union’s labor representatives, Business Manager Valentino Ceria, President Matthew Brady, Vice President Benji Panis, and the Contractors’ management officials, the day had finally come for a ratification vote from the Local 675 membership.

 

Business Manager’s Message

I want to thank all the members who have been enduring and adjusting because of this pandemic but we can be proud to have weathered through the worse of these turbulent times. As more people are being vaccinated, we can feel a little safer and closer to the new normal.
