Laborers-Employers Cooperation & Education Trust utilizes labor-management cooperation to meet competitive challenges facing union sector work
Together, Labor and Management can
generate business opportunities for union contractors and job
opportunities for LIUNA members.
Combining Strengths
In today's highly
competitive global economy, North America must collectively pursue a
proactive strategy. The reality is that neither workers nor
employers can do it alone. The key is to combine our strengths,
talents and skills to fortify our position in the marketplace.
Cooperation between labor and management increases productivity,
efficiency and job security.
