Once again we remember our fallen Brothers and Sisters this Workers Memorial Day and place our right to safe working conditions at the forefront. Take time today with your crew for a moment of silence for those who have been lost on the job. Talk about safe or unsafe working conditions that affect you directly.

Watch our Local 71 message here.

Alaska's workplace fatality rates are still too high. 

Unions have been instrumental in developing the workplace standards we have today that apply to all workers. That function remains relevant today, as Local 71 defends the safety rights of all our members.
