Local 568 International was founded in 1919 and is affiliated with the American Federation of Labour, the Congress of Industrial Organizations, the Canadian Labour Congress and holds its Charter from the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW), the largest electrical union in the world. Local Union 568 represents more than 2000 electricians, apprentices, linemen and workers from the manufacturing sector.

Join the ranks of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers and open up to the world. The members of the IBEW are spread throughout approximately 1000 locals in North America.

The IBEW represents workers of assembling, installation, repairs, material maintenance, electrical and electronic equipments of all kinds. We also represent workers of high technology such as fiber optics, structured wiring and VDV, railroad workers and also construction workers who represent approximately 50% of the membership of this great Brotherhood.

Members who work in the United States are benefiting of four pensions more than members of a provincial union. Those pension plans allow our members to live their well deserved retirement adequately.

We are founded on a democratic structure. All Officers have been elected by the members, the real decision-makers!

Our services are offered at the most reasonable union dues possible.
