110's Safety Committee Report June 2023 - Posted June 8, 2023
Recently a member reached out to me to report an incident that occurred on the job that most would never consider when doing a routine installation. After cutting into an existing wall to install a vanity lighting outlet box, the member noticed an abundance of what appears to be used needles and syringes hidden behind the wall covering of a stud cavity. Appropriate action was taken without incident and working with the G.C. to irradicate the problem but it was a good reminder that many unforeseen health hazards can occur on the job that are very difficult to plan for. We wanted to share this with the membership to bring awareness of the dangers of blindly reaching in any space and I have provided additional information on some best practice procedures below on this incident but always be aware of your company’s safety policies and procedures to follow.

OSHA 10 Card Update - Posted May 3, 2022
More of our contractor's customers are requiring employees to have an OSHA 10 Card in hand when reporting for work. If you do not have one or cannot locate yours, consider taking an OSHA 10 Class to get a new or updated card. Not having an OSHA 10 Card does not exempt you from receiving a strike if you do not take a job.

"To Organize All Workers in the Entire Electrical Industry" - Posted November 16, 2021
Greetings Brothers & Sisters,
The first object of the IBEW is “To organize all workers in the entire electrical industry in the United States and Canada, including all those in public utilities and electrical manufacturing, into local unions,”. On his Sunday night show, John Oliver of Last Week Tonight took time to expose companies that use union buster as a strategy to detour us from attaining our goals.
Take 25 minutes, click on the link below and enjoy a hilarious commentary by Oliver. It is worth the watch.
Enjoy!

International Vice President
IBEW 6th District

Local 110 has a group of email addresses that receive notification (bcc) when there is an event that involves one of our brothers or sisters. This is sometimes good news about a member or family, a picnic or party reminder, and sadly, funeral notices from the paper or family members letting us know. Many members have requested we share the obituary when we know about it so they can try to attend. We do not spam you or share your email address with anyone. If you would like to be added to the group, please click the link below. Sign up with Doug Suchanek - dsuchanek@ibew110.org Thank you!!! |
