Member Benefits

We are proud to use our collective power to negotiate and partner with our signatory contractors to provide the best member benefits in the building and construction trades.

THE UNION ADVANTAGE

Workers should be able to join unions to make their workplaces better and to negotiate for the wages and benefits they deserve. LIUNA promotes safety, health, and a better standard of living for its members. The collective bargaining process gives workers a voice in their pay, working conditions, and benefits. While national union membership is falling, Minnesota's union growth is at its highest in the last 14 years, largely due to new organizing efforts and federal infrastructure funding. 

STATE-OF-THE-ART EDUCATION

LIUNA's Registered Apprenticeship Program trains people from around the state to become highly skilled, well-paid construction workers through a debt-free, state-of-the-art education. LIUNA is proud to operate Minnesota’s largest and most diverse skilled construction apprenticeship program. At our training center in Lino Lakes - which has recently doubled in size to meet the demands of the industry - we work with more than 800 union contractors to enhance worker skills and promote workplace safety. Our apprentices earn while they learn and train while they work, receiving family-supporting wages, healthcare, and retirement benefits. Building and Construction Trades unions in Minnesota offer age-appropriate and safe career exploration and exposure programs for youth to meet industry workforce needs.
