Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I join a Labor Union?

Your individual ability to bargain with your employer for better working conditions and compensation is highly limited, at best. As a member of a labor union your voice will be grouped with the other people that you work with who want better working conditions and compensation, giving you the power to negotiate a better contract with your employer.

Who can I call to answer my specific questions about membership with the IBEW Local 300?

Timothy LaBombard is our membership Development Director. 
He can answer any questions you may have about becoming a member. He can be reached at 802-864-5864 x15.
