IBEW Local 1 banners new West County gas station

BALLWIN, MO – IBEW Local 1 is bannering a new BP Gas Station, dba Sun Up Express, at 14401 Manchester Road, for using Innovated Electrical Services, a non-union contractor that pays below area standard wages and benefits negotiated by Local 1. The union is asking the public to not patronize the gas station because employers using contractors who cut wages and benefits reduce the earning power of all working people. Taking the message to the public is IBEW Local 1’s Don Whitelaw. – Rick Dinnella/IBEW Local 1 photo
