Good day Union Family,

At last nights General Membership Meeting a motion was made, seconded, and past for Local 110 to start a Rope Access Committee.

This Committee will focus on the unique challenges that are faced by Members working in the Rope Access sector of the Mechanical Insulation trade. While at the same time building recommendations on how the Local can grow in this part of the industry and attract additional Members to fill the growing need.

I have appointed Local 110 Vice President and Training Coordinator Dan Annett as Chair of this Committee and meetings will be held over Zoom and in person at the Edmonton Union Hall, on the First Monday bi-monthly starting with July 4, 2022. If you are interested in becoming a member of this committee please email your Name, Membership Number, and Contact information to KimberlyM@insulators110.com .

With robust member involvement I am sure this Committee will succeed and expand into the future. As Rope Access Work expands in most of our sister Locals across Canada, there may even be an opportunity to help develop similar Committees in those Locals and work collectively and collaboratively across the International.

In Solidarity,

Kevin Lecht

Business Manager
