IUOE Local 25 Employee Directory

Local 25 is committed to providing "qualified labor" to our signatory contractors through a cooperative effort of our IUOE Local 25 Joint Union/Employer Union Based Training Program. Additionally our signatory contractors perform supplementary employer based safety training. This means we collectively strive to meet industry safety training standar... ds in accordance with applicable federal and state regulations for those specific hazards associated with dredging or any other maritime project. In fact, our training was designed to exceed specific training that is mandated by regulatory requirements. Upon successful completion of our safety training, our members know how to apply what they have learned, whereas they will recognize workplace hazards, protect themselves and their follow crewmembers from all potential and existing hazards, and report any such safety issues and/or concerns to the designated company representative. Since all dredge crews are protected under the seamen status, our combined experience and training initiatives provide the contractor with reduced exposure to unwanted liability under the provision of the Jones Act. Some of the credentials are obtained by meeting sea-service requirements and successfully passing comprehensive training and examinations through the U.S. Coast Guard, while the Union, Company, or third party training provider issues other credentials. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us.Read More
