Roofers and Waterproofers Local 40

Organized Labor

Marco Antonio Gomez , Apprentice, Local 40
I've been roofing for 10 or 12 years and finally I got a chance to be in the union. It is totally different, especially safety. I don't even want to think about how it used to be on those non-union jobs. I like working with tile. It's difficult to get all the measurements right, but laying it down is easy. I like the challenge and it's not as dirty.
