Brothers and Sisters,

Thank you for your continued commitment to health and safety throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. In light of new CDC guidelines, we are increasing efforts to ensure the health and safety of all members, employees, and their families.

As of Monday, August 23, we are reimplementing a mask mandate for visitors and employees of all three branches – Union Hall, Funds Office, and Training Center – as well as for Executive Board and body meetings. This policy will apply to all indoor Local 4 venues, and to those that are vaccinated and unvaccinated. We encourage you to review our policies in their entirety on our COVID-19 Resource Center.

Thank you for your cooperation as we strive to actively make decisions for the recovery and safety of our communities.

In Solidarity,


William D. McLaughlin
Business Manager
