Laborers Local 1010 LECET

WHO WE ARE:

Local 1010 Laborers-Employers Cooperation and Education Trust (1010 LECET) mission is helping Laborers’ Local 1010 and their contractors win projects and jobs. Local 1010 is an affiliate of the Laborers’ International Union of North America – LIUNA. Local 1010 members work on virtually every road, street, highway, and boulevard in New York City. Our contractors also work in NYC schools, parks, athletic fields, and playgrounds. While Laborers are working hard on current projects, 1010 LECET is hard at work identifying future projects and job opportunities using job tracking and research, as well as lobbying and advocating for pro-union legislation.

1010 LECET brings Laborers’ Local 1010 and its signatory contractors together to address issues of importance to both. Laborers and our employers share a lot of common ground. Working as a team, we secure projects and jobs, increase union-sector market share, advertise our services, develop a workforce, and advance shared market-related interests. 1010 LECET works closely with leading industry organizations on issues of importance to our industry such as transportation funding, market-related legislation, marketing strategies, and workforce development.
