IBEW Local 363 promises our employers that our workers will work to a "Code of Excellence". Our workers are productive, punctual, educated and have a zero tolerance for drugs and alcohol. In addition.
Briefly, our union - the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers - was formed in 1891 in St. Louis, MO. The IBEW was born from the need of the workers who were employed installing the new phenomenon called "Electricity". They found that the owners had been using them against each other to keep their wages low. They realized that they had everything in common with each other and that they could use that same philosophy to begin to raise the wages - if they acted in concert, as a unified group.
Although it has been over one hundred and ten years, the fact remains that business cares for capital and labor needs to care for itself. The needs of the workers have remained the same and IBEW Local 363 is there to help those workers to help each other.
If you agree, come join us.
