OUR MISSION

IBEW Local 465 strives for dignity in the workplace for all of our members by collectively bargaining for better wages, benefits, and working conditions.  We also endeavor to organize non-union employees so that they may enjoy the benefits of bargaining collectively.  Some of the classifications we represent include: electricians, linemen, mechanics, train operators, office clericals, meter readers, gas operators, maintenance personnel, technicians, tree trimmers, laboratory personnel, and more.  Our workers are some of the most highly skilled in the industry, and they carry with them a life-long dedication to their craft.
