Great Plains Laborers-Employers Cooperation and Education Trust (GPLECET) is a labor management partnership between LiUNA and our signatory contractors. We work cooperatively with our contractors and construction owners to help identify project opportunities and to market the many advantages that we and our contractors can provide.
Better Trained • Better Built • Laborers
The Laborers’ International Union of North America is one of the most progressive and strongest unions in the country. With over 500,000 members, LIUNA is the eighth largest labor organization in America, representing a skilled and diverse workforce. The Midwest Region represents more than 55,000 laborers like you; construction workers, government workers, health care providers, industrial employees, service workers, educators and more.
We are united through collective bargaining agreements which can help us earn family-supporting pay, suitable benefits and the opportunity for advancement and better lives. We encourage you to add your input, stay up-to-date with the news, enjoy articles, and unite with us as you explore the website.
Pensions
Pensions and retirement security after a life of hard work is under attack. Two thirds of Americans no longer have a secure, adequate and predictable retirement check. Social security and a defined-benefit pension plan have long been the foundation of a secure retirement, however, use of employer-paid defined pension plans has declined dramatically for non-union workers, in favor of 401(k)s and other investment funds that depend mostly on what employees can save. Union workers are also struggling to retain defined-benefit plans.
Health and Welfare
According to the Census Bureau, 82 percent of union construction workers have health insurance, compared with only 46 percent of non-union construction workers. While bargaining for health care grows more expensive, LIUNA is exploring innovative ways to reduce costs, such as pooling more members to increase purchasing power.
