Community_Workforce_Agreement_(1).pdf

The Community Workforce Agreement is between the Ontario International Airport Authority, the San Bernardino - Riverside Counties Building and Construction Trades Council, and the signatory craft councils and unions. This agreement establishes labor relations policies and procedures for major demolition, rehabilitation, replacement, and construction projects at the Ontario International Airport, with a goal of having 50% of total work hours performed by workers residing in San Bernardino and Riverside counties. The agreement covers project work exceeding $400,000 and is effective for an initial period of five years from the first construction contract award, with the possibility of extension by mutual written consent.

The agreement includes provisions for union referral procedures, non-discrimination, employment of area residents, apprenticeship programs, and drug and alcohol testing policies. Contractors are required to use union hiring halls and prioritize local workers, with specific requirements for core workforce employment and referral processes. The document outlines wage and benefit standards, work hours, overtime, shifts, and holiday provisions, and establishes a Joint Administrative Committee to monitor compliance and resolve disputes. The agreement also includes detailed guidelines for worker safety, project support, and mechanisms for addressing grievances and potential labor disputes.
