The United Association has a new partner – a fellow American union.
On August 1, the UA and Roofers Union formally agreed to an affiliation to work together on water capture systems.
The partnership allows both sides to retain their organizational independence, but aligns both groups on training, safety, marketing, organizing and other issues pertaining to water conservation and water capture systems. The unions will retain autonomy in regards to structure, finances, internal affairs, collective bargaining agreements and benefits.
