The BCTGM has won contracts for thousands of North American workers that enable them to have a good job with decent working conditions that allows them to lead a happy life, to raise their children, and to retire with security.

The difference between being represented by the BCTGM and not having a union job is the difference between a living wage and a sub par wage; between health benefits and none; between a secure retirement and a uncertain pension; between a safe workplace and a hazardous one; between a voice on the job and powerlessness.

This site is dedicated to helping workers gain a voice in the workplace and the dignity, justice and respect EVERY worker deserves.
