Become A Signatory Contractor

REPUTATION. QUALITY. PROFIT.
“Committing to a job means committing to completing
it on time and on budget. Each time I sign my name
on a contract, I’m making the choice to stake my
reputation. And that’s why union labor is my clear
choice. LIUNA trains a workforce that is highly-skilled
across multiple disciplines and dedicated to safety;
and that saves me time, and it saves me money. I
build my reputation on quality, so I build my workforce
with LIUNA.”
Richard Lombardi, Vice President of Labor Relations ECCO III Enterprises, Inc.

have the best, most diverse employees working on
their jobsites. LIUNA’s extensive training program
is cutting-edge, modern and aligned with emerging

YOUR WORKFORCE IS WAITING FOR YOU.
“The biggest myth out there among contractors and
developers is that there isn’t a big enough pool of
skilled workers to get jobs done. In New York State,
LIUNA is more than 40,000 members strong—and
they’re far more than just numbers. LIUNA Training
has the top facilities, superior instructors, an advanced
curriculum and unparalleled apprenticeship programs.
Their members are continuously upskilled throughout
their careers—meaning my job is getting done right.”
Chris Asaro, President Holt Construction Corp.
RECIPROCATED INVESTMENT.
“Our signatory contractors and developers are
cornerstone contributors to New York State’s
prosperity. They put our members to work, together
building our cities and our neighborhoods. They
invest in our communities. And we reciprocate that
investment. LIUNA invests more than $100 million
in member education each year. That’s $100 million
to ensure our contractors have the most qualified,
highly-skilled workforce. It’s our commitment to
getting the job done right, by professionals that will
never let you down. That’s our demonstration of
respect for the craft.”
