The UA Local 100 JATC training program utilizes the earn-while-you-learn model, which provides our apprentices with a high-quality classroom education to help them learn their trade. They also receive mandatory OSHA safety training to keep them safe on the job site. Plumbers install, repair and maintain drinking water, waste, and ventilating systems in a variety of buildings such as homes, offices, schools, hospitals, and manufacturing facilities. These essential services not only bring clean drinking water into a structure, but it removes sanitary waste. Besides potable water systems, plumbers can also install, repair or maintain non-potable water systems. As noted by the Environmental Protection Agency, increasing pressures on water resources have led to greater water scarcity and a growing demand for alternative water sources.
