Job Line
**Please note this service is for members of Local 1258 only**
Job requests received from Contractors will be posted on the job line by 11 a.m. daily. Out of work members are urged to call the job line to review possible postings daily and are free to bid on any positions up to 2 p.m. To bid please press 1, leave your name, contact information and a short message. Names will be removed from the job line at 2 p.m. and reviewed. Members who have the required qualifications and are the lowest number on the board will be called and dispatched. Members already working for any of our Contractors cannot leave/quit one job to go to another. This will result in a 30 day dispatch suspension.
Out of Work Board
Once laid off, members should call into the union office and request that their name be added to the board. To maintain your position you must call in once a month to either the job line or the union office. If you miss a monthly call in your name will be removed from the out of work board and will be placed at the back of the board upon your next call in.
Membership meetings
Meetings are held at the union hall the second Wednesday of the month at 7pm
