Topic

Understanding the full cost of labor is a course taught by Mark Rogers, past MCAA President, in an effort to help UA members in leadership positions understand costs and the union contractors business model. This session gives a detailed explanation of the costs associated with putting a UA worker on the job for an hour. It explains that the additional costs that are mandated by federal and local entities that drive up the rate for contractors employing UA craftsmen and craftswomen. As Mark will show you, there is way more to a cost of an hour than what the hourly wage is on the check.

Contractors: Please sponsor your apprentices, journeymen and office personnel to this important seminar.
