Ironworkers shop locals are located in many parts of the US, but for now, on this website you can apply to join 1, 2, 3 or all 4 West Coast locals. (See links below)

The way to become a member of these Locals is to be hired by one of our employers as an apprentice or a journeyman/experienced tradesperson in one of the following trades:

Each of the employers we work for has separate pay and benefit scales, however the union works hard to ensure that we’re well paid and that we’re protected by good health & welfare and pension plans.

We represent your interests with your employer. We’re firm, but fair, as we protect your interests.
