The LMCC also studies ways of eliminating potential problems that reduce competitiveness as well as inhibit economic development of the electrical contracting industry i... n Northwestern Indiana. The +5 Homeowners Electrical Protection Plan is a no-cost service providing peace of mind to homeowners when hiring the services of a +5 electrical contractor. The plan is called "+5" because it extends beyond a builder's one-year warranty for an additional five years. In other words, a home covered by the +5 Plan is actually protected for six years. We take the hassles and uncertainties out of finding the right contractor to wire your new home, or remodel your current home. By prescreening contractors and their employees, we are able to ensure that only fully qualified professionals wire your home. This program mutually benefits the homeowner, the contractor, and ultimately the union electrician who gains from the enhanced work flow that +5 generates. +5 is a truly wininning combination all the way around. The NECA & IBEW 697 Labor Management Cooperation Committee LMCC has established a special Incentives Program to promote membership participation in continuing education and other activities that are a benefit to you and the electrical industry. Participation in various defined activities will generate incentive points which can be redeemed as cash towards purchase of articles of work clothing at two local store locations. Members who earn 15 points during the current year will have their name entered into a special drawing for annual Grand Prize, valued at $1,200. The drawing will be held at the annual local union picnic. Required apprentice classes and activities are not eligible for Incentive Program points.
