Group of Tradespeople Having Tough Time Waiting for Jobs

September 23, 2009

The long-term prospects may be good, but one group of tradespeople are having a tough time waiting out the jobs of the future. International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers,Local 2330, has about a thousand members in this province, but president Ann Geehan, says only about 130 of them are working. She says some of these 130 workers are employed on projects throughout the province, while others are working in western Canada. Geehan says while the prospects look good for the future, she says it's tough finding work for its members at this time. She is optimistic there will be lots of work in the coming months in Labrador West, which has always been their biggest employer; and also in Long Harbour, the Hebron development; and hopefully the Lower Churchill project. Geehan says it's tough on its members waiting around to find work.
