Training

The IUOE Local 30 Training and Apprenticeship program is recognized as the standard setting program in engineering in New York and Connecticut.

Local 30 members are trained to meet industry demands and stay ahead of the technological curve. The most complex and challenging power and facility maintenance systems are controlled by Local 30 members. Together we lead an industry.

Protection

We protect Local 30 members and their families by negotiating industry leading agreements that establish living wages, family sustaining benefits, a dignified retirement and work rules focused on safety and sustainability. Together we create a path to the America’s middle class.

Organizing

The IUOE Local 30 is committed to organizing workers in the industry and creating a voice for operating engineers. Over the years Local 30’s organizing campaigns have raised standards for workers throughout New York and Connecticut. Together we raise the voices of working families.
