The International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) represents members who work in a wide variety of fields, including utilities, construction, telecommunications, broadcasting, manufacturing, railroads and government. IBEW Local 229 represents the best trained, most productive and most safety conscious electrical workers in York & Adams cou... nties Pennsylvania. We are your neighbors, friends, teammates, church members... we are the very fabric of south central Pennsylvania. We are proud of our craftsmanship, our training, our expertise, our professionalism and our union. We are proud to be part of our communities and provide the highest standard of electrical work to our customers. Local 229 was formed in 1918 by a handful of local electrical workers who all live and work in York & Adams counties. Our partner contractors are members of the National Electrical Contractors Association (NECA) which represents the unionized electrical contractors. NECA workers on your job site mean experience, excellence, reliability, and the best safety records in the industry. The long-standing alliance between IBEW and NECA ensures an adequate supply of well trained, highly skilled, and productive electricians to meet the needs of the electrical construction industry. The IBEW and NECA joined together in the 1940's to create the National Joint Apprenticeship and Training Committee, the NJATC. Since its creation, the NJATC has developed into what is perhaps the largest apprenticeship and training program of its kind. The NJATC apprenticeship is the premier electrical apprenticeship program in North America! Through the NJATC, we attract the most qualified electrical apprentices in the country. Under this rigorous, college accredited program, apprentices must complete five years of classroom and on-the-job training before they become journeymen.Read More
