A new smartphone app that works on Apple, Android and Windows 10 devices is helping Canadian Boilermakers make it easier to find work and check in at job sites. The bilingual app, Boilermaker Job Ready, was launched in May and has just been updated to let members get notifications of new job calls, view and apply for open job calls and add themselves to the Travel Card pool. Any Boilermaker who has a Members Only account on boilermaker.ca can also log in to update information for dispatchers, present their Core Safety Training information for jobsite check-in and view announcements, in addition to the job-call features. The app is available free on Android, Apple and Microsoft app stores. For more information, please visit boilermaker.ca/app.

We are sorry to announce the passing of Brother Dave Clark on September 3, 2016.

CWB Weld Testing is scheduled for August 16th, starting at 8:30am, in Regina. Please call the Regina office to register.

Planning for the 2017 Calendar is taking place and we need photos of Boilermakers from across Canada.

We are looking for Boilermakers in the workplace. The photos need to be at least 1MB in size but the bigger the better. The photo call is to all 36 Local Lodges right across Canada. Please send the photos to support@boilermaker.ca and let’s celebrate what makes this union great, the Boilermaker.

Photos must be submitted by August 31, 2016.
