Good afternoon,
Our Manager on the project, Dan, wanted me to tell you how pleased he was with the performance of the crew in less than desirable weather conditions on the job site. He has commented of how well they have been performing throughout the project, however this was a performance that was above and beyond.

Safety Testimonial from Stone & Webster Construction
Peach Bottom Nuclear Facility
Matt:
I thought you might be interested in some of our safety statistics as they apply to Local 229 Electricians.
2010 has been a very good year for safety performance so far, with Local 229 Electricians helping to lead the way.
Last year, our combined OSHA Recordable Rate for Electricians at Peach Bottom Station was zero (0.0).
In 2010, the rate again is zero (0.0). We are extremely pleased with the Safety performance of Local 229 Electricians.
Many thanks to the members of Local 229 as for their enduring commitment to Safety.

Testimonial from Electrician who worked 14 years non-union before coming to IBEW 229
I contacted the Local 229 last winter in response to their add for experienced electricians. I had never worked in the union, so I have to admit, I had no clue what to expect. From the moment I walked through the door of IBEW Local 229 in York, I was treated with nothing but respect! Steve Selby did a great job of explaining what this union hall was all about and what kind of rates and benefits they were getting for their electricians. I took the placement test and ended up getting placed at a large jobsite in York in a matter of weeks. After a few weeks, I was bumped up to the next pay level based on performance. This really meant alot to me because it showed me that they really cared about their electricians and paid attention to their performance. Every couple of weeks they would call me and ask me how things were going and if I was happy with things. The bottom line is that when you go to work you're treated well and given good wages. In 14 years as a non union electrician, I was never treated as well as IBEW Local 229 treated me!!
