Bergs Going Union

since 1891 the international brotherhood of electrical workers (ibew) has been at the forefront of the electrical industry and workers’ rights. we have a long history of bettering the lives of electricians across the country, but our history is just the beginning. we are focused on a bright future that holds true to our long established values. we have 775,000 active members and retirees in the us and canada. ibew members are organized into local unions. leaders are democratically elected and members have a voice and say in their union. this means that every area can be a little different, but every local union works to give electricians a better future. you will find that wages and benefits may vary from area to area to reflect union density and cost of living in that area. when you contact us through this website - we will see that you are put in contact with the local union where you live and/or work.
