Welcome to IBEW 223

Read the Business Manager's Update

Welcome to the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local 223 web site. We have designed this site for our membership to keep them up to date on what is happening within Local 223 and the IBEW.

We would like to let all electricians and telecommunications technicians in Southeastern Massachusetts know the benefits of being an organized worker. We hope to let the people of Southeastern Massachusetts, Cape Cod and the Islands know why IBEW-trained workers are an asset for construction projects in the Southeastern Massachusetts area.

Our belief is that hiring an electrical contractor that pays community standard wages and benefits helps the community. When someone from within the community is working on a project in the community it helps the local economy with workers spending their earnings locally.

Please take the time to browse through our web site. Let us know what you think and ask us for more information concerning the IBEW or Local 223 in particular. We look forward to hearing from you, both our members and unorganized workers in the electrical field.

Fraternally,
 
David W. Fenton
Business Manager/Financial Secretary

IBEW Leads The Way Preparing Workers For Jobs In The Green Economy

Local 223 has joined forces with Locals 7, 96, 103, and the Massachusetts Technology Collaborative to install solar lights in five communities throughout the Commonwealth.  The first to be installed was at the Wareham Town Hall.  These projects will provide the communities an awareness of renewable energy and how the IBEW is at the forefront of this new technology.  Click here and read about the project and related reports on renewable energy.

OSHA Cards Needed for Public Construction


Starting in July of 2006 any construction worker that is to work on any public construction project in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts must have gone through OSHA 10 training.

IBEW Local 223 is providing training for OUR MEMBERS who have not gone through OSHA 10 training. Contact IBEW Local 223 JATC to find out the training schedule.

Starting in July of 2006 IBEW Local 223 will not be able to refer any member to a public construction project that does not have his or her OSHA 10 card.

IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT EVERYONE HAS ATTENDED AN OSHA CLASS.
