Im a union Elevator Constructor. I can imagine next time someone is in a Hi-rise elevator that they would expect that the car is installed and maintained by highly qualified techs to be the safest transportation for the public. Not by under paid, overworked and non qualified people. Ive seen first hand the quality control being implemented by the non union sector of my trade. There are buildings in Calgary I wouldnt even ride. Being stuck in elevators sucks. Unions provide not only good wages for its members but they also provide good pensions and welfare programs. I know this post isnt to bash unions, but there is benifits of being a union member. I.U.E.C Local 130 Calgary AB
