Electric workers union Web site launches - Portsmouth Herald News, NH
"We are constantly looking for ways to improve ourselves and to create jobs and better opportunities for our membership," Monahan said. "One of the ways we do this is by increasing the number of signatory union contractors in our geographical area. The new site should help us do that."
IBEW 103 carefully monitors construction projects to determine when licensed, skilled electricians are needed to ensure that a job proceeds safely and without incident. And Monahan emphasizes that his members are frequently employed by homeowners and by local businesses who have become more concerned with "getting it right" the first time and avoiding additional costs through a lesser- trained electrician.
Residents of Massachusetts can see the giant wind turbine at IBEW Local 103 that has become a Boston landmark on the Southeast Expressway and a symbol of America's embrace of renewable energy sources.
