Employers and workers bargain in good faith to achieve Collective Agreements which bind each party to a set of obligations that benefit not only the parties, but Ontarios and Canadas economy.The Provincial Building and Construction Trades Council of Ontario is an organization that represents 12 craft unions in the construction sector, totaling 150,000 workers throughout the province. Our mission is to give construction workers a collective voice in the workplace, to help ensure that workers are well-trained to meet industry needs, and to promote healthy and safe work conditions with decent wages, pensions and benefits. Part of our success stems from the effective partnerships we have established with our signatory contractors and owner-clients who work with our affiliates to achieve public and private infrastructure needs in the following seven bargaining sectors: Industrial, Commercial, and Institutional (ICI) Electrical Power Systems (EPSCA) Residential Heavy Engineering Roads Sewers and Water Mains Pipelines We also work with provincial government ministries and agencies to ensure that the construction industry is well-regulated, competitive, well-resourced, and safe. Part of our mission is to help ensure that the workforce reflects the face of the community where each project is built.75 International Blvd., Suite 401,Etobicoke, Ontario M9W 6L9Tel: (416) 679-8887 | Fax: (416) 679-8882"
